diarhea during pregnancy
Posted: 06-11-08 22:22pm

i'm 32 weeks and two days ago I started having these loose stool constantly everytime i used the bthroom it's watery. Is this a sign of preterm labor. I didn't contact a doctor about it because i thought i might have been over re acting. Can you tell me what is going on. This is my third child and i never carried any of them full term. I was high risk with my other two with placental abruptions.

Diarrhea is not a sign of any preterm labor including preterm placental abruption. Diarrhea is usually a sign of some intestinal infection. Only extremely severe diarrhea can indirectly jeopardize the pregnancy because of the dehydration.
Do you still have diarrhea?
