It is common for pregnant women to experience changes in their bowel movements due to hormonal fluctuations and the growing uterus putting pressure on the intestines. Increased frequency of bowel movements, even up to 6-7 times a day, can be considered normal during pregnancy as long as there are no other concerning symptoms such as severe abdominal pain, blood in stool, or fever. Soft stools without diarrhea are also generally not a cause for concern. However, if you have any concerns or if the frequency becomes excessive or accompanied by other worrisome symptoms, it is always best to consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and guidance. They can provide personalized advice based on your specific situation and medical history. In the meantime, staying hydrated, eating a balanced diet rich in fiber, and engaging in regular physical activity can help maintain healthy bowel movements during pregnancy.
