Is it normal to keep pooping while pregnant?

Mostly.Normal for most people

Yes—you still poop during pregnancy, though how often you go can change. Constipation is common, but some people have more frequent bowel movements too.

Pregnancy doesn’t put your bowels on pause. Hormonal changes, your changing diet, supplements, and pressure from the growing uterus can all affect how often you go, so there’s a wide range of normal.

If by “keep pooping” you mean ongoing diarrhea, or you have blood in your stool, severe pain, or signs of dehydration, check in with your healthcare provider.
