The baby is a parasite. Your system will always fill it's nutrition needs before it's own.

But because the baby is taking up so much room inside, the regular peristalsis that expels your waste products has been slowed down. Every time you eat, this "reminds" the body that it needs to expel waste, and it does.

Be thankful you are not completely constipated, which would be indicative of a breakdown in the peristaltic action. Straining to expel waste materials causes more serious problems for expectant mothers.

It's definetly normal and it'll get better for a little bit, then usually sometime in your third trimester it'll start all over due to the baby getting bigger and only having so much room. I used to think when I was on my period I went to the bathroom alot and used a lot of toliet paper, but once I got preg again with my third I realized I spend more time in the bathroom and used more tp when I was pregnant..lol. One of the many joys of pregnancy. As long as you eat your baby will get plenty of nutrients. Good Luck!!

It is normal dear. We as humans eat and then get rid of the waste our bodies don't need. Rest assured that your baby is getting just the right amount of nutrition as long as you eat healthy.
