No more constipation?

I'm 8 weeks pregnant and suddenly I'm not contipated anymore--it was never too bad just every other day or every couple days and my MS has lightened a lot. I have been able to eat food and I'm hungry a lot! A little background about me is this is my third pregnancy.. My husband and I had a miscarriage at 5 weeks last July and lost our son at 20 weeks this past December so I'm just a little worried about everything. Any reassurance that constipation is gone? :/ thanks ladies! We saw a heartbeat of 115 at 6 weeks!

Re: No more constipation?

  • I also feel like I don't have twinges or stretching pains or anything anymore..could this be because I'm not constipated?

  • First thing I thought was that you may be eating differently.  I'm sorry that I'm not much help but I hope everything is okay.  I'm glad you're feeling better though too.

  • I'm so sorry for your losses!

    I think it's pretty normal for symptoms to come and go, or leave completely. Just as your body and hormones adjust to the pregnancy.
    I felt great the other day and got a little weirded out by it and now i'm back to feeling crappy again, lol.
    I know it's hard not to worry, but try and stay positive and enjoy the times you're feeling ok, because the symptoms could return before you know it!

  • My OB said MS and other early hormonal symptoms tend to peak at 8 weeks and generally disappear by 12-14 weeks. So hopefully you're just through the worst!

    Hopefully this eases your mind a little bit. I'm so sorry for your losses. Stay strong mama!

  • Thanks ladies! I think I'm just being extra paranoid! ugh! Haha
  • I had horrible constipation very early (wks 4-6) and a sudden lightening of symptoms. At week 8 it came right back! Try not to worry. Be grateful for this *ahem* moving time! ;)

  • I don't like to think of symptoms as good indicators of how a pregnancy is going. So I would be glad that things are getting better. So hard not to worry, but do your best.
