Problem About Bowel Movement during Pregnancy
I'm 18 weeks pregnant and am wondering if pushing a bowel movement too hard can cause preterm labor?? Can it harm the baby in any way? I have to push more than usual due to the constipation. Afterwards my lower abdomen will feel weird and cramped. Is this normal? I had a late miscarriage last year so I worry a lot with this pregnancy.

Hi, sorry to hear about your miscarriage and its very normal for you to feel so worried, just try not to stress ok.
Pushing should not put you into preterm labour, although you should try to let the movement come on its own.I know its hard because you are constipated but try and just push normally and let it come naturally. The only thing i know that pushing hard may cause is piles/ hemmoroids.
