It could be either. Drink lots of water and maybe take a stool softener. You don’t want to strain and mess something up from pushing poop out so hard. Good news is a lot of women will get diarrhea sometime during labor, so that would help if you’re one of those ladies!
Contractions or poop cramps?
40+5 today!
I’ve been having pretty strong, inconsistent contractions for the past 2 days. They come anywhere from minutes to an hour apart. I’ve also been constipated, and straining to use the restroom, although every time I’ve gone something does come out. I’m thinking the contractions are due to severe constipation, my husband thinks I’m in denial and that I’m in labor. I really don’t think I’m in labor, so I want to see if anybody has had a similar experience!
