Congratulations! Sounds like someone is going into labor...
Its totally normal, and the emptying of your bowels is one of the first signs of labor. Its natural, and healthy, and will probably keep you from pooing durring delivery (not that theres anything wrong with it!) :)
Some women don't go through it, and choose an enema. SOO be glad you're getting natures treatment :)

funny thing is, i was watching discovery health this morning and the midwife on there said that when your body's preparing for the delivery of your child, your BMs will get very loose. :-) good luck

I bear in mind chocolate tasting like dirt to me. lol. interior the tip, all grow to be ok. I had a healthful toddler boy, 6lbs 5oz. i would not issue basically yet. See how the subsequent trimester is going. save ingesting healthful and get countless relax. you would be advantageous. Congrats and sturdy luck.

that was the first sign of my labor. i didn't know that would happen. we stayed with my MIL and she knew, but didn't tell me. she plugged in the camera cuz i stayed on the potty for 3 hrs at 41 wks. sure enough, baby in hand 12 hrs later.
you body may be making room for baby to squeeze through. be aware of what you feel, and try not to be anxious. i spent may last few hrs before going to the hospital (with my second) folding laundry to be busy, but resting.
rest up, eat (something bland, don't wanna be sick) and shower before you go.
