My period is 5 days late and since yesterday im having loose motions also. I always thought it was constipation in pregnancy not this. Could the two be related or am i just connecting random things?
Hmm I had loose motions early on too and wondered the same. My doc said its not a typical sign, more likely diet or a bug. Did anyone here have it as an actual early symptom?
Haan kabhi kabhi hormones se digestion gadbad ho jaata hai na, but loose motion ko main pregnancy ka pakka symptom nahi kahungi. Mostly to constipation hoti hai. Agar zyada ho raha hai to paani peeti raho aur doctor se pooch lo.
Not really a classic symptom, most of us get the opposite, constipation actually. Hormones can mess with digestion either way though. If loose motions are frequent it could just be something you ate, watch it.
Honestly its hit or miss, some women report it but constipation is far more common in pregnancy. A proper test will tell you better than symptoms. Keep yourself hydrated and check with doc if it continues.
It can happen due to hormonal changes but its not a reliable sign of pregnancy. One thing, if loose motions are severe or with cramps or you feel weak and dehydrated, please call your doctor, dont ignore that.
