I experienced this also with my first, I have to constantly go to the bathroom during my first cm of dilating I'm not sure if it's true but I read that diarrhea is a sign of labor.

Probably false labor. Diarrhea is not a sign that labor is close it just happens close to due dates bc baby needs that extra room to move around and diarrhea is the fastest way to clear out the body and make that room for the now bowling ball sized human inside.
