TMI? VENT? OR JUST HOPELESS? :(

Okay so I feel like I'm really gonna burst into tears now. First (excuse kinda TMI) I feel a pressure that im gonna have to poop. But wait? I just pooped not note than an hour ago and it feels that I'm poopin' a stone. I feel so uncomfortable right now. I read that this pressure of having to poop thing is also a sign of labour. But I'm only 13+6weeks!:( is this normal? Or should I be worried?

Second, (feel like just need to vent) we all want our partners to be part our pregnancy journey. Right? A while ago I asked my boyfriend to read the article about pregnancy that I have read. I did that because I want him to understand what I'm going through and I want him to be aware of everything that is happening to me and to our baby. But crap! He barely finished even 1 sentence!!! I know he loves to read. He can finish whole article about basketball and phone/computer games. But what now? :( Am I overreacting? Am I asking for too much?

Lastly, (Hopeless?) Am I just hopeless that I cannot find any solution bout my TMI poop problem? Or am I also that hopeless that I'm unaware that I'm starting to overreact things? Am I?

If you finished reading this, I owe you a BIG THANKS for sharing your time. It really means a lot to me. Hugs and kisses MOMMIES!

I feel bloated at times and very much concerned. I do not like to strain because one time before I thought I had to have a bowel movement and then I heard a pop and miscarried. Dr say it is normal for constipation but be cautious and if it gets really bad or concerning I would definitely call and get an emergency appointment.

About the emotional part men are strange when it comes to it. If he goes to the dr with you and see the baby and have him touch your belly and watch it growing then maybe he will start building that bond or emotional part your looking for. Good luck, take it easy and relax. This can be a rocky journey.

You may just be constipated that can cause it to feel that way when you poop. But if your really concerned just call your doctor or go in to have everything checked out better safe than sorry.
