Anybody having loose stools?

Question

I'm 37+5 and have been having loose stools all day. Normally I'm either constipated or just regular. I drink a lot of alkaline water so it helps keep me regular with all the prenatals. Wondering if this smcould be a sign of my body starting to prep for labor soon? I also lost weight at my last visit. I know that both of those can be a sign of labor being soon. Anybody else having it too?

Answer

For me, I'm 39w+2, having a lot of false/pre labor contractions and they are helping to move my bowels along. I was constipated my whole pregnancy until 2 weeks ago. Every day for 2 weeks I've felt like I'm on the verge of going into real labor.

Apparently when the dr says you're "close" that means days OR weeks! Good luck!

Answer

Ive had this problem for like 2-3 weeks now! Its horrible!

Answer

Me midwife says its normal as labour approaches I'm 37wks x

Answer

I have been really bad for 10 days now (normally opposite) I am 37w3d.  At first I thought it was a sign of labour being imanent as they say your body empties itself in preperation but obviously not for me.
