Can Pinworms Cause Mucus Stained Stools And Constipation In Final Trimester?

I am 21 years old. No medical history other than asthma, and birth of one child vaginally no complications. I am 39 weeks pregnant for my second child, and have over the last couple days noticed pinworms in my stool, I am also constipated and have noticed mucus attached to the small amounts of stool that do manage to pass through. Is the mucus caused by the pinworms? as well as the constipation or?
