Have you been constipated?
nope :(
All I could find was this, but it is based on a question from a person who didn't state whether they were pregnant or not:
"Stool normally contains small amounts of mucus. Mucus In Your Stool may be a problem: what is color of mucus and is there any blood in stool. Are there any other symptoms? If amount of mucus is increased, that might be a symptom of variety of causes: irritable bowel syndrome or ulcerative colitis. Cause for Mucus In Your Stool might be bacterial infection or anal fissure. I think you should see your doctor."
from: steady health
it has happened here occasionally in very small amounts:confused: so id say its probably quite normal unless theres loads of it??
Danni, have you had a cold or anything lately to make you a bit stuffy? I haven't noticed it with myself, but with the kids they tend to have mucous in their poo from swallowing phlegm when they are sick.
yes i have a really bad cold at the moment!
oh yup definetly a cold - if you swallow mucus it has to come out somewhere:)
yuck, but that makes sense. thanks!
Danni
If the mucous is still there after the cold has gone you should see your doctor
I have this problem from time to time thanks to Irritable Bowl Syndrome.....yuck!!
