I'm almost 5 weeks pregnant and I've had diarhhea for the past 3 days. I've upped my water intake to compensate, but I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this? is it normal? anyone have a dr's view of this?

It could be nothing, but it also could be sign of an early miscarriage. Why take chances? See your doctor, better be safe then sorry. In the meantime try some bananas, rice, toast, as they all act as a natural hardeners of the loose stool. Wishing you the best.

I Had It When I Was 6 Months And I Almost Had A Miscarriage So I Suggest You Go To The Hospital If U Have Had It That Long Because U Are Losing Alot Of Water And U Can Get Dehidrated.And This May Cause U To Get Contractions.

Diarrhea and constipation are both very common during pregnancy. You should continue drinking extra water to compensate and try to include a bit more fiber in your diet to harden your stools up just a little.

This is common in pregnancy. I have 2 children and experienced it quite often. You might want to consult your physcian to see if there might be something you could take to help you stay hidrated. I don't think it is anything to worry about unless it last for a long time. Good Luck.

I had diarrhea from time to time when I was pregnant. It is normal for pregnant women to get it. I have attached a link for you that might help explain your symptoms.
