Hi. I'm 39wks + 5dys. The toilet is my new best friend. I've always been very regular, but this is something else. Last month or so it feels like if it's not number 1's it'...

Thanks for the replies Ladies and peace of mind. I wasn't too worried, but it's always nice to hear similar stories, to know you're not alone : )
