See your OB: Any significant changes in your overall condition during pregnancy are best assessed by an examination by your obstetrician. Good luck and have a great baby.

Not worrisome: Hyperactive bowel sounds and 1 episode of diarrhea is not a cause for concern. Pregnant women, like anybody else, can sometimes have some intestinal distress. It usually resolves spontaneously in 24-48 hours. If it becomes persistent, or you develop fever, bleeding, contractions, etc, you should be evaluated right away. Best wishes!
