when we had our girl spayed, she would squat and only a drop or two comes out. We thought she must be in pain so we called vet and the vet said it's normal, after about a week, when it starts to heal, she's normal. Mine doesn't have the pooping alot problem.

i ahve never had one of my girls show the signs your talking about. pooping more she has to be eating more, or becasue of the spay incision could be tight and she is not letting her bowels clear out, urination may be a bit painful.
for one wekk after a spay my girls would be crate rested no jumping playing, i also regulated their feeding for stools would not be to hard.
i would talk to the vet, feed smaller softer foods, watch her water intake uti are not that uncommon after being spayed.

IMO it shouldn't happen but it does...either the opening the surgeon made was very tight and putting big fingers in there irritated something; I've even known of a bladder to be nicked by the scalpel during spay surgery (careless doctor) which caused lifelong weakness of urine retention but that's not what I'm supposing here..it could be that the pooping is from nerves at having undergone surgery/staying at the vets office. Was this dog given IV fluids during the spay surgery? That may be more liquid than she is accustomed to taking in for one day and the extra pees would be release of that fluid...a one-day happening. I would give it another day or two to see if it resolves and if not, I would speak with the vet again. They should be willing to do another urine test without an office visit charge...speak up about this!
