Seriously ladies?

There's a post on my bump board about a girl not knowing that you will most likely have a BM while in labor. How could she not know this? I knew this before even considering getting pregnant. And when we started telling people, that's one of the first thing women would say: "oh congrats! and don't worry about pooing during labor, it happens to everyone!" Even my mom's nail lady said this.

Another girl said she's never even passed gas in front of her DH, and they've been together for 10 years. I just must be one farty girl. Whatever, DH doesn't care and neither do I. 

Re: Seriously ladies?

  • Hahahahaha! I just got home from dinner, must run to check out.

  • ugh i hate people like that. how naive. flatulence is a common and accepted occurrence in our house. she must be one of those girls who believes that men need to think women dont poop at all. <barf>

    This is what I thought too. And trust me: pregnancy throws all of these rules completely out of the window!

  • One of the first questions BIL asked us when he came to see the baby..."So did you poop on the table?"

    I asked Clint if I did and he goes "I don't think so but there were a lot of things coming out down there and they were all sorts of colors."

    That made me laugh out loud!!

  • 10 years and never farted in front of her husband??? Rodgers and I aren't private about these things at all. 

    By the end of my pregnancy, I was actually looking forward to pooping during labor because I'd been constipated for so many months. It's a good thing I did, too because Nate was nearly a week old before I went again...

    Me too Ali!  Seriously, I would have exploded by now if I never farted in front of H.

  • One of the best choices I made was to get an enema before I left the hospital! There was a girl on my mom board who ended up in the ER from constipation and had to have poop manually removed, did not want that to happen to me!
  • Oh boy...I should find that post.

    We don't make it a habit to fart, etc in front of one another...but funny story.

    One night when we were living in our apt, I woke him, Tessie, and myself up because I tooted so loud. I still don't live it down. Apparently it sounded like a horn on a big ship...

  • I had no morning sickness my first trimester, only the worst agent orange gas EVER.

    It was horrific, painful, and would make your eyes water. 

    After that...there are no boundaries. LOL

    This made me LOL. I haven't woken DH up, but he's definitely woken me up! I figure after a drunken night of passing out and throwing up at the same time kind of erased any boundaries that DH (then just a bf at the time) and I may have had. Especially since he had to clean it up! And no, it's not like I go fart in his face or something. But if one comes out I'm not mortified about it! 

  • I still have no idea if I did while I was pushing.  I like to think I didn't....I'm fine with DH knowing I poop, but I'm happy not knowing if he saw if happen while I was in labor.
