 Thanks NYB!  My body is strange... if I stop taking mag oxide when I take my calcium or stop stool softeners, I just stop ****ting completely. It's either like pudding or non-exsistent! 
This has been so different than my other 2 pregnancies, but I'm thinking maybe I'm carrying differently because I'm so much thinner this time. 
And, yes, labs are fine... get them done every 6 weeks. Iron started sucking early on so I got infusions, but other than that, everything else is good. 
Congrats on your baby & congrats on 11.5 yrs! You're  the furthest out from DS I think I've encountered!

If everything is good - labs, scans,  blah blah.....I wouldn't worry about the poop,  other than it's a pain in the ass  (sorry can't resist)

Maybe try reducing the stool softener a little?  Are you drinking tons of water?

Yeah for sure this pregnancy would be different - not only the thinner body itself,  but also your hormonal profile is totally different without the weight on you.

Thanks for the congrats - baby is 10.5 month old today and getting big and verrrrry active!
