I've been having loose motions quite frequently lately and it's making me anxious. I am in my first trimester. Is this a normal pregnancy symptom or should I be worried?
With my twins, my digestion was a total roller coaster, sometimes constipation and sometimes loose motions. Just stick to simple khichdi and buttermilk for now. If it gets too frequent, call your doctor because hydration is super important!
I know how scary it feels when anything goes off with your body during these months, I used to panic instantly. But please try to calm down, it's quite common. Drink lots of fluids, and if you feel weak, call your doctor right away for peace of mind.
I am currently in my 5th month and dealing with this since yesterday, so I totally relate! Did anyone else also get this around this time? I am drinking lots of water but still a bit worried if I should call my gynac today.
Personally, I faced loose motions in my second trimester quite a bit. I just had simple curd rice and coconut water which helped calm my stomach. But I always made sure to inform my doctor if it didn't clear up in a day.
Oh yes, loose motions are quite common due to hormonal changes, so don't stress too much. Just keep sipping on ORS or coconut water to stay hydrated. But if it doesn't stop by tomorrow, definitely talk to your doc.
It actually happens quite often because of hormone fluctuations and changes in diet. Just make sure you are drinking plenty of water and electral. If it lasts more than 24 hours, don't wait around and book an appointment with your gynac.
Yes, it is fairly common as our body goes through so many changes. I had it a couple of times and just took light home-cooked food and kept hydrated. Just keep your gynac in the loop so they can advise you properly.
My doctor explained that hormonal surges can speed up digestion, leading to loose stools, or it could just be prenatal vitamins. She advised me to stay away from dairy (except curd) and drink coconut water. If you have cramps or fever with it, call your doctor immediately.
