I did this for at least 2 weeks with my first....drink more water. I hate drinking water so I had more than most. the thought of drinking 8 glasses of water a day makes me feel nauseous.

If you are nausious, ask your dr to check for pre-eclampsia.

Good luck!


+1. I went to the hospital after a few days of this and was only 1 cm. dilated-- they wanted to give me Pitocin, so I went home. But it can be hard to be patient and not overthink it when this is happening! Good luck, OP.

I was like that for 5 days until I finally went into labor.

Either way, you should stay hydrated. You need to replace the fluids lost from the diarrhea and staying hydrated can remedy false contractions, if that's what they are. Otherwise, good luck and congratulations on making it to 37 weeks.

I've had nausea and diarrhea yesterday and today, and now tonight, I'm having light contractions. They aren't regularly timed - just regular in coming at random intervals. I'm 37 weeks. Early labor? Just Braxton Hicks?
