39WKS (tmi-diarrhea)

Ok I've had diarrhea fo the past 6 days. Sometimes its clear! I have to really watch what I eat. I told my doctor and she said to drink plenty of water, eat bland foods, and keep an eye on it. Never not once did she say it was normal this close to my due date. But everyone says it is. How many ladies had this? How bad was it???

I know its normal before you go into labor but it sounds like yours is pretty bad. As long as you keep the fluids up so you dont get dehydrated. Im 39 weeks tomorrow and have to run to the loo after most meals but its not too bad. My midwife said its just another way of our bodies preparing. It s**ks i know. But were almost there!
