Another TMI question

Are you scared that you will poop during delivery?

I have an extremely bad stomach - and not to be too gross - but anything I eat goes right out of me within minutes.

I was thinking of asking for an enema (sp) so that I won't have to worry about this.

Do you guys worry about this too?

Look at you with all the questions...but seriously...you are not alone in worrying about these things.

I am petrified but not sure if I would or could go the enema route.

Tanaholic had one and said it was fine. I just don't know. Knowing my stomach - those poor nurses will be VERY busy! LOL. I give them so much credit!!

Kristen having this baby this morning really got me to thinking. Chat Icon

Re: Another TMI question

Actually, this doesn't bother me. I hear they see it so much and remove it quickly. I just don't want DH to see it. That'll be the time he goes down to see the babies head and I poop all over. Chat Icon It's supposed to be a happy time for us!!

Re: Another TMI question

How do you do the enema? When do you know when to do it?

I am sure it's not a good idea after your water breaks!!!!

Gosh.. something else to worry about!!

Re: Another TMI question

I was REALLY worried about that for a while...now I am pretty much accepting the fact that it is probably going to happen because all the women I speak to and doctors say almost ALL women do this and dont even realize. The only thing is the smell...ew...but they clean it up right away.

Yes I am. Although I found out I might need a c section so I have really not thought about it. I have heard it is very common though.

Re: Another TMI question

I went to the bathroom 4-5 times while I labored at home and that usually happens with labor. Your body is getting ready. But after all that I was still so worried and I could only think about that while I was pushing and I wish I wasn't so concerned. For this one I know what to expect and I really dont care. I think it also helped that when I asked DH if I did he said no that I didn't do it.

Re: Another TMI question

With the constipation I'm having from my vitamins and iron, I will welcome any poop, even on the table.

That and they won't tell you!

A coworker was telling me one day that his wife was in labor and she asked if she had just pooped. The nurses lied and said "No." Her hubby [my coworker] bursted out laughing and said, "They are lying to you, you totally just crapped on the floor." Chat Icon

While I spent a lot of time on the toilet prior to going to the hospital with my first, I cannot be certain I didn't go myself at the hospital. No one said I did or didn't...I just like to think that I didn't.Chat Icon
