Might be a little tmi but 🤷🏻‍♀️

I know some people get constipated during pregnancy which I have never been but is diarrhea common also? In the third trimester. I know hormones can cause either but just wondering if anyone had diarrhea/ soft stool at any point as well..😰

I have had a lot of constipation through my second trimester. I am 2 weeks into my 3rd trimester and definitely having more consistent bowel movements that aren’t diarrhea but very much I need to get to the bathroom NOW and are softer than they’ve been through my 2nd trimester. TMI, maybe 😂 but this is a safe place….right haha!

ok atleast it’s not only me.. it’s not diarrhea but def softer stool that isn’t like regular. lol… I only just crossed 28 weeks.. and yes this is supposed to be a safe space to talk about weird things LOL

Yes, and I’ve been having it like everyday now 😭😭😭😭 for example this morning and at the worse times too.

Im 31w btw. I got it really bad for a few days than it past and it came on again. Can’t explain it but it’s like I go days without a bowel movement than an explosion.

Oh yeah I go back and forth from being constipated to loose stool. I think it’s just hormone related

Yup I won't poop for days but it still comes out soft 😭 water intake and hormones is all I can think of

Induction?

Anyone been induced before? Was it more painful? Better than thought? Worse than thought? Worth it? Thoughts?

Induction or c section?

As a last resort, would you rather be induced or have a planned c section?

Really not liking the thought of being induced from people’s experiences I’ve read!

i really want another baby

i am merely a few months pp but i want another baby, but i am scared of the age gap (2 under 2) and also with everything going on in the world i just think its not the best idea at the moment but i am having crazy baby fever and miss having a newborn🥹

C section or natural?

I am a control freak and thinking c section is the least stressful route for me and baby… less complications during labour etc. whilst acknowledging recovering can be hard.
If it could be guaranteed no tearing or complications then I would opt for natural and kind of want to experience the feeling.
Then again could plan and go either way 😂 arghh!
Anyone else in this predicament?

Has anyone ever had pain in the bone at the bottom of the lady area?

How I can only describe it is I feel like I have a fracture or the bone is broken right at the bottom of my vagina bone obviously don’t think it’s to the extent but that’s how it feels. I had it in my last pregnancy and the pain went few months postpartum now it’s back again with this pregnancy. These are the results that u e googled I think I may have the first one has anyone every had this or something similar

Homebirth?

I am thinking I want a homebirth (second baby) for a few different reasons but my husband is very against it, he is worried about things going wrong and we are a 30 minute drive from the hospital. Has anyone been in a similar position and what did you end up doing? Any advice? 🙏
