excessive diarrhea in early pregnancy?

This is my 2nd pregnancy13 weeks pregnant and I literally have lost 20 lbs from being so ill. I tried everything the dr says. He even had me take flintstones instead of the other prenatals. It doesn't matter what I eat or how much i drink to avoid dehydration. Has anyone else gone thru this? my first pregnancy was not this rough by any means.
I thought the diarrhea was from the pills and now clearly they were not my problem



Answer
Omigod! Your situation could not be more identical to mine..I just HAD to answer your question :)

I am 18 weeks into my own pregnancy right now, but am STILL experiencing bouts of severe diarrhea on and off. I'd say it started early in my first trimester, at about 8-10 weeks..and occurred on average, between 2-5 times a DAY for over a full month. I was completely miserable (and also worried), to say the least...

I don't know what kind of family history you may have that could possibly play a role in your symptoms, but I was incredibly concerned because my mother suffers from Crohn's Disease (an inflammatory bowel dysfunction) and ironically, became the most ill during one of her pregnancies (and at a rather young age -22, which I am as well-21.) So, aside from being scared out of my wits because of the impending possibility that I could have had a lifelong illness, I was also obviously worried about my baby. No matter what I did, lay off spicy or irritating foods, as well as dairy (all suggestions by others in my family)..NOTHING alleviated my intense diarrhea. I even half-joke about it, because the father of my son gets diarrhea quite frequently, while I never did prior to getting pregnant with his child..so, I resolved, I must have gotten some of his genes or something into my own system from the baby or lol.

And as I said, this continued on for a month...with no relief (even with living on Campbell's chicken soup, broth, dry cereal, and crackers), and extreme attacks of excessive diarrhea accompanied by HORRIBLE abdominal/intestinal pains.

So, when I went to my first prenatal appointment, I alerted my OB of my symptoms...and even found out from the scale at their office I had lost ten pounds! Luckily, everything was fine with my baby. My doctor explained that taking in nutrients, especially in early pregnancy, is not absolutely necessary-as the body will naturally resort to utilizing some of it's own fat and nutrient storages to supply to the baby if you are having morning sickness or other symptoms which make getting those extra calories from eating nearly impossible. I was just advised to continue taking my prenatal vitamins and remain hydrated, since these are ultimately the most crucial factors to the health of the fetus during any stage of pregnancy.

I'd say though, that based on the information you provided (and just encounting from my OWN horrendous ordeal(s), it seems as though we're just some unlucky gals that get this alternative G.I. upset as an added joy to our pregnancies. If you've looked up any information on diarrhea in pregnancy elsewhere, you'll see if often states diarrhea as being one of the rather rarer symptoms to be experienced. So, I guess that makes us even more exceptional lol.

Just try to get through it, as I have. At the time of my first OB appointment, the diarrhea had subsided, and thus far had stayed at bay up until a few days ago. I was told by my OB that if it returned, at my next appt. they would like to take a stool sample just to make sure everything is still looking alright. If you're feeling more concerned yourself, speak to your doctor and try suggesting this. I've noticed mine seems to flare-up whenever I catch a bug of some sort, almost like my intestines are sensitive and become easily irritated..so maybe if you notice this as well, they can check to see. Your stool can reveal a lot about your condition, if you may have any food allergies, a virus, food poisoning, or another illness - all are real possibilities.

And above all, just know you aren't alone! I can't believe I even found another person like me, my entire family keeps thinking I'm crazy since none of the women ever had this during any of their pregnancies. It's interesting to hear you didn't experience this with your first, but they do say every pregnancy IS different. This is my first, and I guess this is either just how my body reacts, or like you said, my pregnancy has just decided to be really rough in this regard.

My grandmother also likes to tell me, "pregnancy just doesn't agree with some people" - although this doesn't help me hearing this in any way, that statement pretty much does fit me to a T, so I just try to live with how uncomfortable it can be and know that each day, through all my bs, I'm one step closer to getting my baby :)

Good Luck w/everything,..
