Hi
Dr. Purushottam welcomes you to HCM virtual clinic!
Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully gone through your case, and I think I have understood your concern. I will try to address your medical concerns and would suggest you the best of the available treatment options.
Usually in near term pregnant women, loose motions or large bowel irritation provokes or initiates labour pains.
That can be the reason why you might have started getting pains, after your diarrhoea episode.
I will suggest pre probiotics like Cap Vibact DS once a day for a week.
It's good that you are beyond 37 weeks , so even if get into labour pains, it's safe for the baby now.
I hope my answer helps you.
Thanks.
Wish you great health.
