Hi,
I can understand your concern.
A strong intestinal movement causing strong urge to poop- is associated with stress to uterus lying in immediate vicinity of large intestine.This causes stringy vaginal discharge.This can be associated with diarrhea/ constipation/ bulky stools.
You need not worry, till there is uterine pain.
Observe for any such pain or change in vaginal discharge
Take diet with sufficient fibers & plenty of water. this will help in healthy bowel movements.
Consult your doctor in case of repeat symptoms.
Thanks
