The embarrassing question!!!

[Rayoflight]

My husband was overjoyed to hear that we needed to provide our own sieve or net for our home water birth. He says he will be extremely disappointed if I don't shit myself as he wants to be able to take the piss forever. He went out and bought a net from an aquatic shop and waves it around in front of me and laughs.

I hope I do, and I will make him fish it out!!!

The poop thing drove me insane with all my kids. The pain didn't worry me, it was crapping on the delivery bed that terrified me. I wouldn't push properly with my first for the fear of pooping and ended up being cut. I am convinced I did a little poo with my second as I felt the MW wipe my bum but she could have been wiping blood away coz I did have a nasty tear. My third I am 100% sure I didn't coz he pretty much slid out with barely a push. With my 2nd I had been constipated for about 5 days before he was born so it makes sense that I had an accident. The other two I had the runs early on in labour so I suppose there was nothing there lol

My sister is a MW and she says that about 70% of women do have a poo but it's not like a full on bowel movement, it's usually just a little bit. It doesn't bother the
As they see it so often. Still it's not a nice experience for us ladies in labour to be shatting infront of strangers lol xx

This is the same horrendous husband of mine that regularly takes pictures of his toilet achievements and texts them to me. He even did it to my mum once with the message "Happy Mother's Day". Nothing is sacred in our house.

OMG !

 

[Rayoflight]

On our very first date he picked me up, as we got out the car he helped me out, took my hand, kissed me on the cheek, told me I was beautiful then cocked his leg up and farted the loudest raspiest fart you've ever heard! I could not believe it. I was seriously in shock! (and the smell was horrendous). He smiled and said "come on... You know it won't be long before I'm doing it in bed and trapping your head under the covers love!".

oh my god thats halerious!

 

[isobel84]

omg! demba has never done it in front of me!
When i was laying there with horrible contractions tho i really needed to fart badly and i said IM SO SORRY BUT I HAVE TO and i let go and oh well.. it was the longest and loudest one i have ever let go, if it was him i would have pissed my self but demba bless him didnt even blink.

The first time OH told me he loved me he followed it by hugging me and shaking me so much I farted...

Yes, during my student midwife days I cleaned up some unplanned poop, such as you may have heard before, never forget, 'Sh*t Happens' not a lot you can do at the time, but like someone else already said, fair bit of Prune juice is good for a bit of natural clear out

Also, I have a friend who is a healthcare assistant on a labour ward, she gets paid to fish poo out of the birthing pools with an NHS funded sieve lol

 

[bearsmummy]

I did but no one told me till i asked my mum and she said it was only a tiny bit x

 

[lealea85]

I'm nowhere near my due date, labour terrifies me already but I have never taken embarrassment too well n always burst into tears.......I'm absolutely bricking it about pooping myself during labour :s

So glad to see im not the only one

 

[bearsmummy]

You honestly won't even know! The midwives are so great and discreet hun x

 

[K&A]

I'm worried about that! I would be mortified I think! Also with you on the legs wide open to the world thing - I'm very shy about my body!

I'm sure I've heard or read somewhere that says to men to lie if their OH has pooed!!

i had my OH and mum as my birthing partners and i kept telling them they must stay up near my head and not look. After god know how many contractions my legs were wide open and i was pushing away. The whole hospital could have seen everything and i wouldn't of cared. Ull honestly be thinking about to many other things.. Ull do great x

 

[K&A]

lol evelina.. Bless demba for been so supportive!!

i remember not caring after so many contractions.. I was lying in my mums arms and holding my OH hand and all i kept saying was '' i feel like my butts gonna explode'' LMAO but everyone laughed and said that's what happens because you push into your bum.. But i never did anything.. Don't think i would have cared if i did x

 

[Yodabo]

Out of 3 of mine I pood with my 2nd. I felt it come out and I felt her wipe my bum lol You honestly won't care though when your in that stage of labour!

HAHAH Your hubby sounds exactly like mine! Me and my mom get crude message like this all the time. I have been ordered into the bathroom before to see his PRIZE POO! haha. I think he reckons Im one of the lads.

I want a water birth and I have wondered what happens if you go in the pool... they net it out?! Oh god the embarrassment. Its almost making me want to be on a bed now... xx

 

[Squeakz]

i worried about it for ages and thought god how horrendous for OH to see that specially when i had kept up that girls dont poo however after i gave birth i asked the MW nd she said i did! but tbh i dont care cos i got my little man and the whole process is so undignified anyway a little poop didnt really make much difference! x
