frequency in bowel movement

Hi

I am 31 week pregnant and since last 4 days i am experiencing too much frequency in motion during day time. Two hours after every meal i  am not able to control my bowel. Is it because of increased pressure as the fetus is growing. As i am an office going person it would become increasingly difficult for me to work as it affects my efficiency and productivity at work as i am wanting to go to wanting to continue working till the ninth month so i can take more leaves later. Could you please help.

I also have started dealing with frequent bowel movements the closer I got to 30 weeks. I do think that it could be from all of the pressure in there because the baby begins to take up most of the room in your belly. I would mention this to your doctor though and see what they say.
