Hi,

One month period diarrhea in pregnancy should be treated with great vigilance as this can affect both the mother and the child.

Specific measures:
- consume more liquids
- avoid chicken, fish (which provoke intestine motility)
- discuss addition of antibiotic as Metronidazole with her OBGYN to get the best results.

Hope I have answered your query. Feel free to post further doubts.

Thank you.

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
