The diarrhea can be caused by the cramping, and the cramping probably means your having contractions. Don't be worried that's normal. Even if your having some light contractions this early it doesn't mean your going into labor. Its called braxtonhics. Unless you start bleeding or the contractions get stronger and you can tell that they are minutes apart, don't pay it much mind.

at this point ANYTHING could be a sign!! haha
Just try to take it easy and put your feet up. Make sure you are drinking plenty of water. Diarrhea will cause you to dehydrate and dehydration can cause contractions. And not good contractions, because you still have 5 weeks left and you want that baby to roast as long as possible before he's done!
Congrats and feel better!!

Sounds like you just have a tummy bug or ate something bad. When you start to drop, you'll know it! Your hips get sore because they are widening to prepare for labor.
