What is it?

[becky2102]

So I'm 37 weeks on Monday, I keep having loose poos (almost diarrhoea) pretty much every time I go for a wee, going light headed every so often, have headache, and lower back/ thigh ache making it hard to bend down, does anyone know what this is? Thanks ladies xxx

A friend of mine told me this is what happens, it's your body's way of clearing itself out before the birth.....you lose you plug but you also find you clear out in other ways! Guess I've got this to look forward to!x

I thought as much but wouldn't think it would be doing it 3 weeks early?? X

I went to the doctors about loose stools this week (lovely...) and they're checking for a bug but she said it's quite common in third trimester, changes in your body etc. Just another wondrous symptom!!!

Yep I've had it for at least 2 weeks now, I go two or three times a day now and they're always realllly soft :/

Just another pregnancy joy x
