I don't think that diarrhea is a sign of pregnacy. But I've had it for 6 days now it is worst in the mornings. My last period started July 27th. In August on the 28th I spotted once, during the whole day. I haven't seen a drop of blood since. Today is September 26th. I've taken 2 pregnancy test one in early sept. and one last Saturday morning both were negative. My periods were on time up until August when I spotted. I don't know. I don't have insurance so I can't go to the doctor. I don't want to take another test because they say nagative. Maybe it's stress right?

You're probably NOT pregnant. Usually your body retains food and water if you are pregnant. You period will probably hit within the next week. When you ovulate you start retaining nutrition in the event you do get pregnant and need it. If you didn't conceive it releases everything it stored. Of course, if you start bleeding, pain in present or the diarrhea last more then a week, call you doctor.

I don't know and I'm not handing out medical advice. I am not a doctor.
But in the meantime, you have to stop those runs. Try eating peanut butter (no salt added)...like a peanut butter sandwitch. You can add bananna to it if you like. To be honest, if you can eat the peanut butter straight, it's better still.
Also eat rice to help bind you and stop the runs.
And couple all of that with imodium AD http://www.imodium.com/ which you can find in any store.
If you can't get imodium, eat two peanut butter sandwitches...but better to take the imodium.
These items, especially the peanut butter, will help stop the runs. IT SHOULD. Please get plain peanut butter with no junk in it. IF POSSIBLE, that's the only way to go. The problem is, the runs may stop...but what is causing it??? So, fixing the symptoms may be hurtful to you if you do not get the cause healed. Do you understand? Stopping the runs in this fashion, doesn't solve your problem. it only stops the runs. I'm only suggesting this until you decide how to get help.
If you have the runs for too long, you lose too many minerals and without minerals, your heart goes. FYI. Also, having the runs for too long can cause IBS and other issues. This may be a small thing, like an infection? Or an irritated bowel? Or it may be something else that is more severe. I'm not a doctor!!!

I think you should find a free clinic and get a good pregnancy test done, because those home ones don't always work. but it kind of sounds to me like you could be, are if you have allot of stress in your life that can cause things like that to. but you do need to go see a doctor or a clinic.

It might be stress. It might be Colitis. This is an inflammatory bowel desease. Sweetie GO TO THE DOCTOR immediatley. He/She may order a test called a colonoscopy to see what is wrong with your colon or large intestine.
Please do this today. I didn't and now I am on 8 different meds. If I had gone to the doctor after 6 days I might not be on these meds.

Well, if you don't have insurance, all you can do is wait it out. There is not much they can do in the first trimester anyhow even if you are pregnant. An irregular period, or missing one, doesn't automatically make you pregnant. Just wait and see. You do need to treat your diarherra though, 6 days is a bit long.. Make sure you have enough liquids.

Diarrhea for 6 days? Please go to the doctor. Insurance or not, this isn't normal, or a good thing. Try going to the ER, most will generally accept you with or without insurance.

You could go to a clinic and they'll do it for free, if you are not pregnant then definitely you need to see a doctor because that's not normal. Good luck!

It could be stress. Some periods get irregular if subject to stressful situations. We suggest you try to relax!

Find a free clinic in your area and get in there. You have no excuse not to take care of yourself.
