bathroom.

I am 36 weeks pregnant with my first child, found out today I am 1 cm dilated.

but, i was wondering if this has happened to anybody else - I will have awful gas all day long, with the feeling of having to use the bathroom but never can until it’s time to lay down and try to sleep, then i’m in and out of the bathroom 6/7 times with awful diarrhea. I know this is TMI, but it only started happening around 35 weeks so I was wondering if it was/has happened to anybody else. and why it would be happening.

Help!! I’m miserable. 😢

Update - 37 weeks pregnant now, dilated to 2 & 1/2.
