My stomach has been a bit upset since 2 days and im wondering if its related to pregnancy or just something i ate. Im around 7 weeks. Did anyone else get loose motions in early days?
My toddler is 2 now, but I still remember having terrible diarrhea in my first trimester and crying that something was wrong. It was just my body reacting to prenatal iron pills, so try to take it easy.
I see this question a lot here, and yes, many women experience a sudden bout of loose stools due to body adjusting to new hormones. Try eating simple boiled potatoes or banana, but check with your gynac if it gets severe.
Actually, it can happen if you suddenly change your prenatal vitamins or eat outside food. Just stick to double boiled water, simple curd-rice, and avoid oily food completely for a few days.
While most women get constipated, some of us get the lucky lottery of diarrhea instead! Just stay close to a bathroom, drink plenty of fluids, and don't worry too much unless you feel dizzy.
Yes, sudden hormonal shifts or dietary changes can cause loose motions. Keep sipping ORS or coconut water to stay hydrated, and if it doesn't stop in 24 hours, call your doc immediately.
When I had loose stomach in my third month, my mother made me drink buttermilk with bhuna jeera and gave me light khichdi. It settled my tummy beautifully within a day, so try simple home food.
Diarrhea isn't a classic sign of pregnancy, but digestive changes are very common due to hormones. Please consult your obstetrician before taking any self-medication like metrogyl.
