Diarrhoea after a prenatal massage

Apols if this is TMI however, I had a prenatal massage in the morning for 90mins - at times I did feel the therapist was quite firm with her hands and I told her to apply less pressure. Anyway, I woke up at 1:30am with the urge to go to the toilet and experienced loose bowels/diarrhoea. Has anyone ever experienced this after a prenatal massage? Not sure if it’s the massage/release of toxins or just a random one off incident. I didn’t eat anything heavy/dodgy for dinner. I have felt baby move around since! So random with the loose bowels?!

She probably was able to “unclog” some things in there with the massage! Your internal organ as are so tightly packed in there that it’s hard for stool to move around freely

Screening 12 weeks

I had my blood test on Thursday last week and some of my results have been published but not the Downsyndrome, Edward’s and patau results which I’m most anxious about. Is this normal or should I be worried that they are the only two not published?

For those that get checked for dilation.

How bad is it? Like? Does the dr start with one or two fingers? What does it feel like? It’s been 7 years and apparently I can’t for the life of me remember the feeling of being checked. 🤔

How long after your c section did you have a bath? I had mine 4 weeks ago, is it too soon to have a bath?

34 weeks pregnant!!

In a week and a half Dr gonna check me for dilation but in the mean time, how many of us actually saw our mucus plug? My first baby I did. The only reason I knew i was ready to go have him was because I was passing blood clots that morning and went to er to get checked and sure enough was 4 centimeters dilated and had actually saw my mucus plug. The contractions weren’t even bad enough to mention.
