I had diarhea all day and ended up throwing up 2x the day I had my son... For me it was a sign of labor. I was about 37 1/2 weeks.

i have diaoreah or constipation throughout pregnancy and i'm on my fourth pregnancy now. it can be hormonal...but itcan also be a sign of preterm labour sometimes. Don't panic, if your baby was born right now, it would stand almost the same chance of survival as a fullterm baby. i suggest you see your dr/ob just to check that everything's ok.
