Diarrhea a sign of upcoming labor?

Question

Is diarrhea a sign of upcoming labor?

Answer

It can be, or it may not be. I wouldnt call it a reliable sign. Contractions or your water breaking are the only true signs to let you know. Everything else means maybe.

Answer

It was for me!

Answer

Not for me.

Answer

Sometimes! It was with me. My midwife told me it was my body preparing for L&D, so it was clearing out the pipes. And I surely didn’t poop during pushing and delivery as it was all cleared out!! 🤗
