| Yes. This definitely happened to me. And it wasn't because I was eating more--i actually ate less in the first trimester. It was because of my prenatal vitamin...it was big and green and I took 3 of them. |

| I'm guess it is! I been having the same food intake. 3 Meals a day in moderation. And a couple of light snacks in between during the day and I go to the bbathroom three or four times a day. Sometimes five. Still in my first trimester. Was scared would be constipated but its the opposite. Plus no throwing up at all so far. Guess every pregnancy is different. |

Yes. Diarrhea is less common than constipation, but it is a pregnancy symptom. Just be sure to stay hydrated and watch for signs of any deficiencies.

| It was for me. I was also eating really strictly healthy, exercising, and drinking tons of water. |

| I have also had a lot of pooping! I feel nauseous but instead of throwing up it "takes the elevator down" lol but is very relieving! |

OP, A LOT is a very subjective term.
What constitutes a lot to one person may not mean a lot to another. Whether you have a bowel movement twice a day or twice a week is within normal limits. |
