39 weeks and abnormal bowel movements.... ?

Question

This may be a little TMI for some. BUt for the past week I have noticed my bowel movements have been a really weird color. and I have had diarrhea lately. They are consistently the same color for the past week. and it seems abnormal. Did anyone experience this before labor? or could I be ill?

Answer 1

Diarrhea is normal before labor, its your bodies way of cleaning out before the baby comes, to make room. Sounds like you could go at any time. Good luck to you and Congrats!

Answer 2

The best way to tell if you might be ill is if the is mucus stuff if it. The color doesn't really matter to much. But, the fact the you have had diarrhea means the you could have a little bug. Make sure you drink plenty of water. You will probably be ok...
