My pregnant cat is very restless and affectionate this morning and has just been to her litter tray and had what looked like a wee but was actually diarrhea - there was lots of it, lots. I am very worried about her. Is this normal?
It is not normal. The question is what is the cause? Has her diet changed in any way recently? Do you know how close she is to giving birth? It may be an isolated event, but unlikely. If the next stool is normal then you can probably just watch and wait, but if it recurs then i would suggest a stool sample and a possible vet visit if she is up for it.

I did some research and there is some to support the idea that as mild contractions begin that diarrhea is the result, see this link: https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20100820025633AA8YDJh

Ops forgot this sorry!
She's had it for two days now and its a lightish brown color

Try mixing the powder from a probiotic capsule into some wet chicken flavor cat food 2-3 times a day. This should help her gut.
