Third trimester bowel fun...

So I have been having some fairly consistent loose to very loose BMs in the last two weeks. I have always trended to having 1-2 a day but they were nice and easy until recently. I am tempted to think my dairy intolerance had taken it up a notch but this never used to be my response to it. I know a lot of women complain of constipation, but anyone have the opposite issues or is it maybe a third trimester thing I havent read about? I know right before labor it can happen but she still has some time to cook in there.

    I have the same issue you have. Did with the last kid too. 1st and 3rd tri both (except when trying zofran). No fun but I think either issue is normal.

  • I've had the runs my entire pregnancy, so fun! I'm taking a class B stomach medicine and taking extra fiber but no relief. No fun! I also have IBS and can't take the good meds while pregnant or nursing.

  • Mine are not loose, but frequent. I attribute it to baby girl getting bigger and bowels and stomach being more smushed. I think it's fairly normal. But might be worth running it by your doc at your next appt?
  • I used to go every 2 days before I was pregnant. Now I go 1-2 times a day. Not loose but more frequent. Sometimes I get diarrhea but I also had that issue pre pregnancy once in a while. I figure I'm going more because there is less room for storage
  • I get diarrhea and sometimes have to puke simultaneously, fun I also noticed my poop stinks way more than ever before, gross
