I have been having an increase in frequency and urgency in the last few weeks of my pregnancy--I'm 34.5 weeks now. Every now and then, maybe once a day or every other day, there is a small amount of blood in my stool. I don't think I have pouchitis because I have not had it in several years, and I do not have the symptoms of a fever, severe stomach cramping, etc, like I have in the past. I am a bit worried about this blood, however small amount it may be. I have heard that some people bleed regularly while pregnant, but I have not until recently. It scares me because my pouch has been functioning wonderfully up until now...is this anything any other pregnant women has experienced....is it something I should worry about?
