Pregnancy changes many things about a woman's body. Stool consistency can be one of them. If you previously enjoyed firmer, formed stool and that has changed after pregnancy, it could have any number of causes including: bacterial overgrowth, sphincter dysfunction, new sensitivity to certain foods, new onset irritable bowel syndrome. Follow up with Dr for evaluation.
