How early can Hormones affect your poos!

Hi guys, need you help.

I am usually as regular as clockwork but the last few days (now day 23, 10DPO) have been having trouble. My system has really slowed down and i was wondering if i was pregnant and the hormones where having their say.

The only symptoms i have had are a small bleed on day 6-7DPO and ever since my bowels have been difficult and slow. My temps are still up but i feel nothing else.

My fingers are crossed like you wouldn't believe!!!
Would love to know if someone else had the same problem...and then foudn out your were pregnant.

Take care,
Hippy MUM

Hi Hippy Mum
I had symtoms (sickness and constipation) from about 8DPO - then i got a very faint positive at 12DPO. I am sure it is possible and I have everything crossed for you.

When are you going to test?
T.

I was in Borneo when I fell PG (didn't know at the time) I thought it was a change in diet that was affecting my bowel habits. I'm back in Oz now and am finding constipation a problem sometimes.

Thanks Charlotte and Tess,

I will test tomorrow morning so i went out and bought the test today. I am so nervous but excited. I want this so much and am remaining very very positive.
Thank you so much and keep an eye out for my positive result. I plan on joining you ver very soon! Hee hee ha!

Ciao for now.

Hi Hippy Mum,
I can't remember exactly how may DPO I was, but I do know that I was constipated and bloated days before I got my BFP, so hopefully that is a good sign for you.
Good Luck today with your HPT :)

oh wow, about a week before af (so a week after conceiving) I had the runs! It was terrible! Although, I don't know if i'd rather be constipated or have the runs, but so far I'm up to 33wks and dont have constipation! You watch that'll jinx me. Hope everything goes well for you!

wishing you luck for today Hippy Mum!!

A neg test girls, but no AF yet so i am still hoping and praying. I will try and wait out another few days and test again. I was really upset this morning but then my cousin said she didn't test positive until 3 days after AF due date. I am so scared. I have to stay positive. Bowels are back to normal now. Thank you so much for your help.
Hopeful Hippy MUM

*Big hugs* Hippy MUM still have my fingers crossed for you!

Thanks Joralyd,
Hope to see you again soon and be a perminant fixture to the First trimester threads. Fingers crossed and will know this weekend.
Good luck to you, you are due 3 days before my SIL.

Take care Hippy Mum

I'll keep everything crossed for the weekend
