should i make an appointment?

I've had some diarrhea and was wondering if that was a big issue or not. I've only had it for a day now. Sorry I know this is gross but I want to make sure I'm healthy and my baby is too.

I personally wouldn't worry about it unless it continued for a few days. However, if you are worried, you can always just give a quick call to the nurses at your practice to check in.

Many prenatals have stool softeners in them so it could be a reaction to that plus a  lot of fiber. I wouldnt worry about it unless its bloody, or you are cramping. It it goes on for a few more days then I would call the doctor.

I've had this issue almost daily since I became pregnant. I talked to my OB and was told that as long as it's not severe it is normal. He also said that going is better than not, and up the water intake to avoid dehydration.

I personally think you are just fine, but call the doctor is you are concerned. Always better to be safe then sorry!

I hope you feel better.

Any sort of irregular bowels is pretty much par for the course with pregnancy.  Just be sure to keep well hydrated.

I dealt with the same thing when that virus was going around. My doctor suggested I only eat toast, bananas, rice and applesauce until it subsides. Hope you feel better soon!

Really?  I never knew this, thanks for mentioning that, I never thought to read the label to see what the "other" ingredients were.  Thanks!

Thank you all for your advice, makes me feel a whole lot better. One more question does being sick effect baby movement? Just out of curiosity.
