Hello
I appreciate your concern
This could be die to progressively increasing gravid uterus which puts pressure on intestine and can leads to diarrhoea and constipation at times
Again it can be a side effect of iron and calcium tablets as well
so you need not to worry
have plenty of water including ORS and fruit juices
you should take probiotics to strengthen healthy intestinal bacteria
Wash your hands before and after the food
Hope this helps you
