Yes! I had this for the first time yesterday and was the exact same either loose stool or nothing and even when I need a pee it's the smallest pee and I still feel like I need after it 🙈 Baby has had a growth spurt in the last 2 weeks so I don't know if it's something to do with that... Not enough room or something 😭😂
@Kassy I’m the same when I go for a wee too, it’s so disheartening when you feel like you’re desperate and it’s a trickle 😂 yeah my measurements were between 38 and 39 at my 36 week appointment so my little one has had a massive growth spurt too, maybe that is the reason why!!
Yessss, during my first labour the contractions felt like I needed the worst poo of my life, my baby was back to back so that was most likely why. But yeah it’s your body using all the muscles in that area so don’t be worried about the poop feeling 🙈
I only seem to have this feeling if I’ve actually got one in the barrel so to speak lol and like you I’ll either be able to go and it’ll be kinda loose or I won’t be able to go. But if I’ve recently had a bowel movement I won’t usually get this feeling with a braxton.
