Are bowel movement changes a sign of early pregnancy

Had my 2nd period after m/c on a 23 day cycle (never that short b4).  Bleeding lasted about 10 days (never that long) normal bleeding not very heavy throughout. Made love during proposed ovulation times according to ovulation calendar Didnt notice cervical fluid along with bleeding. About a week after ovulation had irregular bowel movements involving some cramping 1st time, lighter colored stool with a cloudy residue attached. This went on for a few days not much of cramping, along with much flatulence. Has anyone had these symptoms during the very earliest times of pregnancy. Took a test the day b4 the change but was negative, no other symptoms like sore breast. Want to wait until next cycle  b4 next testing. Help someone please??

Thank you this is such a confusing and sometimes frustrating process not trying to get my hopes up and not tell hubby whose my BF as he took the mc hard. I decided to take a test a few days after the new cycle because the date from the ovulation calendar is working from a 23 day cycle which is not normal for me so I'll wait until my regular 33-35 day period has elapsed and hopefully it will be worth it. I wish you the best in yr endeavors and thanks again

During the 2WW this time, I had diarreah for 3 days straight prior to getting my BFP.  I'd say that it is definitely a sign - rising pregnancy hormones can muck up things "in there" (so to speak).
