Upset stomach? Sorry for the TMI! 🤦🏼‍♀️

Hi guys! I’m 5w4d pregnant right now and for the past week or so I keep getting an upset stomach/diarrhoea predominately in the mornings and don’t know why. I never tend to suffer with this. Anyone else found this in early pregnancy? Any idea why? Should I be worried lol?

Changes to your bowels in early pregnancy and throughout is completely normal. It’s all linked to the changes in your hormones. Some people find they have loose bowels and others that they’re constipated. I struggle with the latter and it can be scary! But certainly diarrhoea is not harmful to babe just try and keep well hydrated as best you can x

thanks lovely. I think it’s mostly the little stomach cramps you get with it that make me worry. I’m like, is this my bowel or baby? 🥺 if that makes sense lol x

Makes total sense! Try not to worry so much, I know it’s difficult x

I had this around the 5 week stage. I’m now 7+2 and gone the other way. Not sure which is worse!

Is this little red bit on my section scar normal? It’s not oozing anything, doesn’t hurt but it’s the only bit on my scar like it so just curious! (19 days PP)

Anyone else felt like this?

Hi, I’m 4 months postpartum, little one sleeps through the night and is formula fed, the last week I’ve felt extremely tired and very hungry! Just wondered if anyone else has felt this way/experienced this?

Hey what are your current symptoms?

I’m 37+5

I’m pretty mobile still but anything over a hour or 2 and I’m in discomfort

Getting up from a sitting position is hard

Some of baby’s movements now are bordering on painful especially around my crotch/pelvis

I’m exhausted very easily and nap every single day

Can basically only breathe out my mouth now and I’m snoring and dribbling 😂

Standing in one leg is very painful 😂

Some waves of pain/ tightening but I regular and mild

Low period type aches

And I feel like a fire breathing dragon with this acid reflux

My nose is growing 😂

My fingers swell slightly and go numbs in my sleep so that and constant toilet breaks keep me up ( checked swelling with MW and consultant and all normal, not a worry)


I also do not want to be social in person like I’d rather everyone just be my penpal atm lol


What are your symptoms?

Fed up

Anyone else just feeling fed up in general? I just never feel happy anymore. Wake up dreading what the day ahead of us will be like.
Little one will be 6 week tomorrow
