TMI... Diarrhea in first trimester? 😷

Question

I was wondering if anyone can assure me or might be in the same boat. I'm eight weeks pregnant today and since the end of December I've had diarrhea. It's not anything crazy... I normally go once a day but when I do, it's diarrhea. I haven't really changed my eating habits. I did start taking progesterone on December 21 because my doctor tested me and my levels dropped below what she considers safe... that's when I really started noticing it happening on a regular basis.

Should I be concerned, is this happening to anyone else?

Answer

Normal. Welcome to pregnancy hon! Often either you can't poop or you can't stop ;)

Answer

I'll trade you some of my constipation for some of your diarrhea 😂

Answer

It's a common symptom - I luckily got away without it, but I've seen Glow articles stating it's normal.

Answer

Yeah. I had it the entire first trimester. I started to notice some goods made it worse and avoided those.

Answer

I had diarrhea week 6-9. It gets better and yes it's normal. It's just some people react a strangely to rising hcg levels 🙂

Yeah I had it in the beginning of both my pregnancies. It's normal!
