No bout of dia is normal Hun you probably have a bug, see GP and make sure your kept well hydrated :-)

Its quite common towards end of pregnancy as ur body basically tries to empty itself in preparation for labour. .I had it at this stage..u might start to get sr more signs over coming weeks. ..keep hydrated x

Bearing in mind you feel well within yourself it can be quite normal at this stage in the pregnancy as your body is now preparing to deliver the baby very soon.

I experienced something similar a few weeks before I gave birth to my daughter a few weeks ago & I was 39 +wks gone.

Thank you all for your comments, all helpful! I wanted some reassurance from other who had similar symptoms... Two weeks ago it was the same case and I went to see GP who said after checking my stool sample that all seemed fine so she just told me to keep hydrated. This time it is just a bit different as it is even more watery and all my tummy is growling a lot but I hope it is just because baby is making his way downwards and maybe pushing things around... :) I just hope baby is staying in for hopefully 2 more weeks and these weeks won't be about running to the toilet all the time.. ;) Thanks again to all!
