It's very normal to be experiencing those symptoms, especially stomach issues. As for pooping problems, do you mean constipation or diarrhea? Or just going more often? All of these are also very common. For constipation, make sure to be drinking more water than the 8-10 glasses a day, pre natal pills with a lot of iron could be causing the constipation. If you are having diarrhea, be sure to be getting more fiber into your diet and to be drinking the 8-10 glasses a day.

Stomach problems are very common.  It could be your body reacting differently to certain foods- like milk products. At 25 weeks with my son, I developed gull stones and that made me use the washroom about 20 times a day. Try drinking water before you eat, that helped me.
