early sign of labor or what?

MerandaGarcia

Maybe some tmi

But I've heard diarrhea and nausea are signs of early labor... Last night I was feeling so sick but I laid down and tried to ignore it... When I woke up this morning I felt a lil better so I didn't think anything of it but then an hour later I had a bowel movement and it kinda just plopped out which has never happened for me this whole pregnancy nothing has made me go like that... So now I just woke up again from a nap and my stomach is getting those sharp pains and I'm feeling nauseous and I had to poo again but it was more like the squirts....

I've read somewhere this could be early signs of labor so should I start paying closer attention or not worry about it... I'm scared if I go into labor baby daddy won't be here... I'm not scared of labor really just bd missing it!

I know diarrhea is a sign that labor may be nearing. I'm a ftm and I don't want to tell you wrong so bump
Just get some rest. Where is bd?

BentleysMommy

Yes it can be. Some women have it to "clear out your system " before you go into labor. How far along are you?

Wilsomom

All the changing hormones at the end of pregnancy make you have softer bowel movements, even diarrhea. So it's your body getting close to labor, yes. How close? No one knows
I've been having the same symptom for a week & a half now.

@loveourlittleone @bentleysmommy @wilsomom

I'm a first time mom so I'm kinda anxious to go into labor and have my lil one. Baby daddy is at work and depends on others and train for transportation because we don't have a car so I would be scared that when I realize I was in labor he wouldn't be able to get here

MerandaGarcia

I really hope I get this over soon lol they say my baby is 7.6 lbs already so I don't think I would mind having him sooner than later I just hope its not a stomach big or something...

MerandaGarcia

I did get things cleaned up a bit and I'm happier not looking at the mess... I'm still feeling shitty and just keeping myself hydrated I need to clean out the fidge and make room so I can be cooking again hubby had to eat take out last night cause I didn't really feel like eating... I ate some rice and a chicken quesadilla but I started feeling horrible again... I think its all just a bug... I don't really think its something I ate cause that should have passed
