It's crazy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ugh-d-issues-opposite-of-constipated#post-93362 Wed, 14 Mar 2012 11:59:50 +0000 mrs. wagon 93362@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hellobeeboston: I deal with the same issue, pregnant or not! You can try the BRATY diet they use on kids, but it can make you go the other way and become constipated. Bland foods and staying hydrated have been the best for me. Boy, do I miss Pepto Bismol when I'm pregnant :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ugh-d-issues-opposite-of-constipated#post-93255 Wed, 14 Mar 2012 09:54:27 +0000 winniebee 93255@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hellobeeboston: Yeah, I had a few *very* close calls in the first trimester. Literally it would come on quick and strong and I would have to run to the bathroom. Then, second trimester was more regular, but then became constipated and definitely had some hemorrhoids, too. I'm 29.5 weeks and don't seem to have any issues in THAT dept. these days. Oh the joys! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ugh-d-issues-opposite-of-constipated#post-93246 Wed, 14 Mar 2012 09:44:51 +0000 Mrsbells 93246@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wasnt constpiated at all in the 1st trimester, I was actually going to the bathroom more regularly and more frequently than before I got pregnant.. so everyone is different. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ugh-d-issues-opposite-of-constipated#post-93234 Wed, 14 Mar 2012 09:30:19 +0000 mamabolt 93234@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup, I dealt with D only the first tri, no C. But now at the end of the second tri, C has finally caught up with me... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ugh-d-issues-opposite-of-constipated#post-93221 Wed, 14 Mar 2012 09:23:24 +0000 hellobeeboston 93221@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Tidybee: yes - so glad it's only 1 trip - not multiple! </p> <p>@BabyBoecksMom: eeek! 3rd trimester!</p> <p>@winniebee: so glad I'm not the only one! haha - not exactly something to talk about....</p> <p>THANKS LADIES.... feeling a little better today - been trying to stick to plain food as much as possible. 8 weeks today! woo hoo! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ugh-d-issues-opposite-of-constipated#post-93202 Wed, 14 Mar 2012 09:04:41 +0000 winniebee 93202@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hellobeeboston: Oh man I had this BAD in the first trimester....especially weeks 4-8. It got better though. Don't worry, plenty of time for constipation, too : ) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ugh-d-issues-opposite-of-constipated#post-93200 Wed, 14 Mar 2012 09:03:30 +0000 Tidybee 93200@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm right where you and @hilsy85 are (7 weeks and 4 days)...and I'm definitely alternating as well!! It's horrible. At least it's only one trip to the bathroom and it's done. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ugh-d-issues-opposite-of-constipated#post-92963 Tue, 13 Mar 2012 20:49:55 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 92963@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had it, too. It eased up a little in the last trimester. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ugh-d-issues-opposite-of-constipated#post-92817 Tue, 13 Mar 2012 16:56:07 +0000 hellobeeboston 92817@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hilsy85: oh no!

I read that it's normal so I didn't worry about. Hope you start feeling better soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ugh-d-issues-opposite-of-constipated#post-92798 Tue, 13 Mar 2012 16:16:25 +0000 hellobeeboston 92798@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Anyone else have the "D" (diarrhea - ha, i'm trying not to be too TMI)... during pregnancy??</p> <p>I've heard about being constipated - but I am definitely not having that issue - the past 4 or 5 days I have one trip to the bathroom that is not pleasant, then it's gone. Maybe this has to do with my celiac disease?? I'm trying to eat really plain food.</p> <p>I'll be 8 weeks tomorrow...</p> <p>thx! </p>
