Can I take pepto??

Question

I have diarrhea so badly today.. I've pooped like 4-5 times already today.. My butt is getting sore even.. I am 39 weeks tomorrow. Is this something that can mean I am possibly going into labor? And is it ok to take some pepto? I would HATE to go into labor and have diarrhea all over the place :/

Answer

I don't know what pepto is but if it stops diarreah then don't do it. Your body is cleaning itself out so that u don't poop during labour. If u start taking something to keep it in then maybe u will poop later on when it wears off and u r possibly in labour

Answer

Same thing happened to me last weekend. 3 days straight of diarrhea which caused horrible hemorrhoids.. Then 2 days of constipation. Body is out of whack! but I wouldn't take anything, your body is making room.

Answer

Sounds like your body is getting ready for the big show! Diarrhea is a good sign! Any nausea?

Answer

You shouldn't. Pepto is an aspirin derivative and isn't safe for pregnancy
