Ok...This is odd. Throughout my entire
pregnancy i've experience constipation
because of my prenatals and just nature.
I eat lots of fiber to keep me regular.
It balances itself out to give me the
perfoct bowel movement. (.T.M.I I
know!)
but anyways, since last monday, i've had
diarrehea. It's not constant, so i'm not
worrying about dehydration. Like, when I
go, i'm expecting rocks over anything,lol,
but instead I get runs. It's crazy.
Has anyone esle experience diarrhea this
late in their pregnancy with no prior
incidents?

You might think about calling and talking
to your dr or his assistant or nurse or
the person on call about this one as you
can become dehydrated or at least your
pharmacist and let them know that you are
pregnant. I know that wal-mart has some
anti-diahlreah(sp) over the counter that
works good but I do not know if it is ok
if you take it when you are preg.
It could just be a bug that might be going
around.
Good luck!

I'm not complaining about it cuz it's
better than being constipated. I only
dookey once a day..(if i'm lucky) and
instead of it being hard, (like normal)
it's soft. Maybe I ate something bad and
it's still effecting me?!?! Oh lord,
tomorrow i'll def. Call my .Dr office
just to see what they say about all of a
suddent dookey texture change. They'll
prob. Laugh at me, but i'm sure they've
heard worse!!!

Do you have any other symptoms besides the
runs? Sometimes in late pregnancy the
runs can indicate labor or the onset of
soon to be labor

Well an update on the dookey....Everything
is flowing normally now! Lol...It's the
perfect consistency!! Not to hard, not to
soft. I started to eat cheeses and dairy
products to harden my stool and it worked.
I'm following that with lots of fiber.
I guess it was just something I ate. I
went to a crawfish boil a day or 2 before
the runs started. It was probably the
seasonings they put in it...
