    Is loose stool a sign of pregnqancy?
    Several days after intercourse, instead of urinating as much I've been constantly going back and forth to the comode. Could this be a good sign of early detecting pregnancy?

    No, it's not a sign of pregnancy, but rather a sign of stomach upset.

    The first sign of pregnancy is a missed period.

    I was told loose stool can symbolize different things at different times. During early pregnancy, it can be a sign you are pregnant, as your uterus starts to grow and pushes out the waste.

    Well, don't know where you got your sex ed from, but that is totally incorrect.

    Actually, loose stool can be a sign of impending labor.

    That is when a woman is 9 months pregnant and she's about to go into labor to have the baby.

    How old are you?
