I know it's gross, but is anyone pooing more!!

Hiya,

well I am pregnant for the first time and we are over the moon and very excited :o)

Today I am 6 weeks and 5 days and I have noticed this week that I am experiencing increased bowel movements. I only used to go ever 2-3 days and now I am going 2-4 times per day. I appreciate that this may be due to the fact that I have increased the amount of fruit and veg that I'm eating, but is this normal?

I'm waking up early hours because I need to go - I expected this about needing to pee but not to poo!!

Sorry it's a gross subject lol!!

hi ladies,

I'm 6w3d today and I'm deff going #2 a lot more as well. I have been eating the same foods as I was before I got pregnant although at times I am eating more food at one sitting.... I used to only go #2 once a day about a half hour after I woke up but now I am going in the morning and once at night. Sometimes in the morning I have to go 2 or 3 times but I have also noticed that my poo is much more in volume, it was sooooo strange to me when this first started happening but I'm sure it's very normal.

to both of you on your bfps!!!!!
