Alright, so I don't really know the politically correct way to say this, so I'm just going to say it...
...do you ever fart in front of your significant other?
I know some people that would say they never do and some that say "hell yes I do!"
Totally random, just want to know everyone's stance on this private matter.
Re: Do you?
LOL
Welllllll.....I have to say that H & I do our best to follow the basic rules of decency, however, to say that in the 10 years we've been together that we've successfully kept all of our bodily functions to ourselves would be a lie. I can't imagine us going through our entire lives keeping to ourselves either - eventually something will slip. If and when it does happen, we just kind of pretend that it didn't then blame it on the duck running around in the house. That is all.
Yes. We also poop with the door open and continue our conversations.
I know there are people who swear you need to maintain some mystery but I can't fathom having to watch how I behave in front of my husband. Plus once they've seen you poop on the delivery table, rip in half and shoot a placenta halfway across the room, really what is there left to hide?
Same for us except for the delivery part. There are times when we want privacy when the other is around. We are just very comfortable with each other after all these years. We do respect others and hold it in when around other people.
We don't but we've only been married 2 yrs so I don't know if we will later on.
If we're sleeping and it can't be controlled, it's different but we prefer to leave the room, we don't go to bathroom in front of each other either, there should be some privacy in our opinion.
Yes, it's gross and it smells but it's a bodily function that we all deal with. Like PP said, I just want to be myself in front of my H.
TTC 19 months ~Started RE in March 2014~
DH was not ready for IUI so we waited
~Started acupuncture in May 2014~
~~BFP 7/6/14~~~EDD 3/14/15~~It's a girl!!~~
Please believe me when I say, if you feel you
can't fart or burp once in a while in front of your
partner, there is something very wrong with that
relationship.
So, my answer is yes!
Oh man, does that really happen?!?!?! UGH!
yep...I'm lactose intolerent but love cheese (and icecream) so its going to happen...why bother trying to pretend it doesnt. H tends to be full of gas before going to bed...we laugh about it and move on. (We also leave the bathroom door open but don't "look" if that makes sence.)

That's so funny. l love it.
DH farts all the time, I only do it if it comes out on accident.
TTC since September 2012
Totally agree! We don't mind any of this stuff. I've actually been known to give DH hugs when he's in the bathroom, because he can be in there for a while.
Yes. It does. You will worry about it the entire pregnancy. Then it will happen and you won't care because you will be too busy screaming "Get this motherflucking kid out of me NOW!" to ever realize you pooped.
FTW!
Can I just say that since learning in HS child development that that is a thing that happens during childbirth (the whole pooing on the table) I have had mad anxiety about childbirth. When I was told i had a tilted uterus and would likely have to have C sections I wanted to high five the doctor because that meant I could skip that whole thing. Just a funny thing to add on to that.
Then it will happen and you won't care because you will be too busy screaming "Get this motherflucking kid out of me NOW!" to ever realize you pooped.
Also, this made me laugh out loud
