Unless you're off on your dpo, it isn't pregnancy related bc it is too early. If an egg was fertilized, it has either just started implantation or hasn't even started, as 9 dpo is avg. High progesterone levels can cause diarrhea, so it could be that. If so, that's a great sign bc you need strong progesterone levels to maintain a pregnancy. I did experience loose stools during pregnancy, however, it didn't start until several weeks into the pregnancy. I've also had it in nonpregnant cycles as well, which means it is a side effect of progesterone, not hcg.

With my first pregnancy I experienced loose BM's for a few days, and they were more frequent. So in my opinion, yes, it is an early symptom. I experienced these symptoms before the thought of possibly being pregnant even crossed my mind! It was my very first symptom.

im 4dpo and also experiencing this today.. and it is unusal for me. I also have lower back ach today as if my period is starting but its not even due for 11 days. fingers crossed for both of us :)

I am 8dpo an I have been having the same thing going on with me since 3 or 4dpo.

I have 2 children and every pregnancy I experienced loose BM's as well as I am now while TTC baby #3. So I am 3 DPO, and have been cramping since before O. And it is possible to be pregnant. Diarrhea and Cramping and fatigue are considered very early signs of pregnancy.

I'm pregnant, so this must have been a symptom for me. Lol

It was for my 1st pregnancy!

I had that and then it turned to constipated all the time for first trimester.
