Hi.
Changes in bowel habits can even take place due to certain supplements or medications you are on whilst trying to conceive.
A delay in periods of course does call for ruling out/confirming pregnancy first and only then looking for other possible causes. For now, nothing serious. If the diarrhea does persist for more than 3-5 days, report to a doctor or write back to me. Some probiotics for the time being are all that is recommended.
Best wishes.
