36 weeks pregnant with dark diarrhea (sorry to gross anyone out)

July 17, 2008

I am thinking it is due to the cherries that I ate last night. It's been going on since last night. what concerns me is the color (almost black). It comes out like water almost and I can't control it. I am lucky that I'm at home. If I stand up and walk it comes out :(

Is it something I should be concerned about?

Stay well hydrated newmommy, drinks lots of gatorade and consume ample food to get you through...sounds like a bug is doing this and let it flow out...should resolved within a day or two, if too much or doesn't go away on it's own soon, let your doc know

Oh boy do I feel for you...same thing happened to me and it lasted 14 days, it just poured out. Dr. Q is right, drink a ton of stuff and the gatorade is the best for you. Try the bratt diet too, bananas, rice, applesauce, tea and toast that can help bind you up. For me it did end up just being a "bug" and worked it's way out. Hang in there :)
