Since morning im running to the washroom again and again and feeling so weak. Im 6 months pregnant and this is the first time loose motions hua hai. What do you all do to settle it down? I'll call my doc but just wanted to hear from others meanwhile.
Oh god, please stay super hydrated! Loose motion can cause dehydration so fast, and I always worry it might affect the baby. Drink ORS or coconut water immediately, and if it doesn't stop by evening, please call your gynac right away!
No need to worry, this is very common as your body adjusts to new hormones. Eat light things like boiled potatoes, curd rice, and apple sauce. Keep sipping water with lemon and salt, and you'll be absolutely fine!
I was having loose motions last week too, it was so tiring. I had a bowl of curd and rice which helped calm my stomach a bit. Are you having any stomach pain along with it, or is it just watery stools?
I panicked so badly when I had loose motions in my second trimester, thinking something was wrong. But my doctor reassured me that hormones or dietary shifts can cause this. Drinking lots of buttermilk and eating bananas worked wonders, so just relax!
For a mild upset stomach, having pomegranate juice or curd-rice works beautifully. But please remember, if your loose motions are very frequent, watery, or if you feel dizzy, don't wait for home remedies. Contact your doctor immediately.
