Hello ma'am and welcome.
The symptoms you are experiencing could be related to a hormonal fluctuation which is common during pregnancy, and does not have to do with gestational diabetes. Although diarrhoea is not really common, it can at times be normal during pregnancy. To rule out any other abnormalities like stomach flu, gatroenteritis, etc; please report to your doctor.
Hope this helps.
Best wishes.
