Sign labor is near?

Question

Okay so this post might be a little TMI so sorry I’m advance about that. 
Just a couple days ago I’ve been having bad diarrhea right after I eat anything. I didn’t have a problem with this my whole pregnancy and I am 33 weeks along. I had diarrhea with my first pregnancy right around the time I went into labor but I got it after 38 weeks. They say it CAN be a sign of labor after 37 weeks and if your before 37 weeks and in the 3rd trimester it CAN be a sign of preterm labor. Anyone else have any experiences with this? Only other thing I have going on is contractions here or there but not enough to be extremely concerned and increased vaginal discharge.

Answer

Actually it can be. I'm a labor and delivery nurse and one of the questions that we ask on admission is whether or not you've had nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea in the past 3 days. There's evidence that yes, it could be a sign your body is preparing itself for labor. Be on the lookout for contractions.

Answer

I will be 35 weeks tomorrow and I too have been having daily diarrhea, sometimes multiple times a day for over a week.  I vaguely remember this with my last one but don't remember how long it lasted before labor started.  My babies come 3+ weeks early so it's down to the wire for me 😬 Keep us posted, and I'll keep you posted on mine too.  Good luck!

Answer

Really that doesnt mean anything you could go into labor soon but inrealitly it doesnt mean labor is soon
