Diarrhea a cause of preterm labor before 37 weeks?

Question

How many weeks were you when it started and did you go into preterm labor?

Answer

I did not go into preterm labor, but became very dehydrated with my second daughter which caused pretty moderate contractions that sent me to the hospital. So if you have diarrhea you can become dehydrated, which can cause contractions. Make sure you rehydrate and just water may not be enough to replenish all your electrolytes so get yourself some Gatorade or Pedialyte. Good luck, hon.
