    It's say it's the joys of progesterone messing with your bowel (I was constipated my first two pregnancies, and just to mix it up a bit had diarrhea first trimester this time... ) or you've got a bit of a gastro bug. Keep hydrated and check in with your GP if it persists or you're feeling worried. xoxo

    I had horrid gastro at 6 wks. Try and rest, keep yourself hydrated and try not to worry. If you're really concerned pop to your GP.

    Big hugs

    I was the same a few weeks ago. I just considered it my morning sickness instead of throwing up!

    Could you actually be constipated? I know it seems weird, but sometimes (here comes some more of that TMI!!) if you are really backed up only small amounts can come out around the edges (sorry, it's gross). So it looks for all intents and purposes that you have gastro but are actually constipated.

    Either way, I would still get it checked out.

    There is no law out there stating that because you are pregnant you must suffer in silence and be uncomfortable!!
