Q: Bloody Stool
asked by: ourlillyput on April 30th, 2007

I am just about 6 months pregnant with my second child, and I have been having all sorts of issues with constipation and then diarhea...it seems there is no balance. But in the last 3 weeks or so I have been noticing a small amount of blood in my stool. At first I wasn't too worried as I had had that same thing with my first pregnancy but in the last few days there is a larger amount showing up. It isn't as if I am freely bleeding but everytime I go there is blood. I dont know if I should be worried. Confused Sad

What color is the blood? More of a bright red or more of a dark/tar color?

yeah, i think bright red is most likely hemerroids.. and the darker is worse. or if it is mixed in.... that isn't very good, but separate is most likely hemerroids or maybe a fissure?
but that is just what i thought, i don't know for sure of course. ask your Dr about it.
