Bowel movement

Hey all im 32 weeks today with my second baby. With the last few days my bowels have been moving 2 to 3 times a day. I have been taking iron tablets as my iron was a tad low. I remember with my first pregnancy i also had to take these and they constipated me really bad. Im jus wondering is this normal as constipation is more regular in pregnancy than free flowing bowels..:)

June 15th is a great birthday! My daughter was born then. She was due June 6, but just had to wait an extra 9 days for the 15th!  Baby brother wont get to pick his birthday, he's july 3.

Hey! I'm 32 weeks today and due June 15th as well! But we set our C-Section date for.the 8th :) ugh its SO far away but I'm.becoming increasingly excited!
OK now for your answer lol, as long as its not watery like diarrhea enjoy it. Its not bad to have free bowels. Don't worry you're OK :) everyone is different during pregnancy. This is my third baby and I swear I've experienced it all lol

I'm just glad pregnancy fixes my normal loose bowel problem! Its so nice not having to scout out the potty when I go places. I'll hate to be back to "normal" after baby is born.
