So?

Nope none here though I did push out a pretty decent size set of hemorrhoids. I also popped a few times during early labor at home so think that saved me. I was so backed up during pregnancy I was afraid of what all might have came out if I did go on the table

Ahh yes. Hemorrhoids. I had no trouble during pregnancy with them. It's a different story now.

girlmama83

Yup. My baby even pooped inside me during labor too. It was all lovely.

CourtJack

I pooped. And I had a home birth. So I pooped in various places around my bedroom. (On plastic covers of course). Such sweet memories I made.

My mom says no I cry bs. DH didn't look much but I did squirt some sort of liquid all over the nurse to my left as DD was coming out. So that was awesome. Plus when same nurse was pushing on ute after birth I let out the loudest fart. That was super embarrassing.

@lokilahve I also loved L&D. DH thinks I'm nuts.

I actually can't wait to do it again! I could do without the 9 months of pregnancy though.

Me too!! I'd do it again tomorrow if I could!
Also no to the poop question, thank god.I work in the hospital I delivered in and my friends were delivering ds do that would have been super embarrassing!

I'm guessing since my last meal was at noon the day PRIOR... That no, I didn't.

But- this is one situation where I firmly
Believe in don't ask, don't tell :-/ and I haven't asked.

BabyE143

I honestly have no idea. My family says I didn't (hubby never looked down there lol) My midwife held/ pressed a warm washcloth in the area the entire time (which was a Godsend because it felt like I was being held together while being ripped apart tmi?). To me it all felt like one Giant Poo. I had a very "clean" birth only losing 150ml of blood during. My younger sister (she's 22) said it was like a movie and that I restored her faith in childbirth... she's not dramatic at all lol

And I'm one of the crazies that enjoyed L&D- med free, there's something about that adrenaline high.

katharine25

I had a itty bitty turd. Surprising since it felt like a gigantic one.... Oh wait, it was a gigantic one. It weighed 8lb 7oz
They were trying to get me to push on the bed and I kept telling them I needed to go to the toilet and I had to poop. They finally got me the birthing stool and I shat him out in under 5 minutes

MommyBolty

I don't think I did. I didn't ask and no one said whether I did or not. I didn't smell anything either. I'll go with a no... And never ask. :-)

MommyAmes2

I had to wait to push, they kept yelling at me to wait for my doc. By the time I pushed I had so much pressure... 1 push and she literally flew out into my docs arms. I didn't have time to poop! Lol It was like a volcano erupting!

MommyKristin88

I did. I delivered in the shower so I kept seeing it drop to the floor. Yuck!! I was so embarrassed and wanted to stop pushing, but my body wouldn't let me. That was very awkward though.

perrybaby25

I did. More than once. And I didn't even care.

Texasmomma13

Pretty sure I did. I needed to before they broke my water and couldn't. Plus when I asked for a stool softener afterwards the l&d nurses chuckeled and said I didn't need one. I did need one but that's beside the point.

ktbear9512

I didn't. I'm pretty sure I pooped out everything in my system during early labor.

I did, however, pee on the table as soon as I got my epidural. I knew it was coming and told the nurse but I couldn't stop it! I kept apologizing, and then switched to indignant about the huge bag of fluids they had just given me.

azzy1206

I don't think I did I stopped eating once labor started I was starving.

rissa06

Ds1 yes I did. Completely felt it and felt them clean it up. So not my finest moment.

Ds2 no csection. That would be a disaster.

Dd nope. Not that I know.

sparks4stp

I didn't. But the baby pooped before he came out. And I also pushed out a huge hemmorid.

tdmklm

I did with my first. With E, I don't know... I farted, however. At one point, after I farted, the doctor said, "Don't worry, just keep pushing." To which I replied, through gritted teeth, "I'm not worried. There's a giant baby coming out of my vagina. You can take some farts." Apparently, everyone thought that was hilarious. I was damn serious.

henderson1026

No, I had a c/s.  It was on monday and i didn't poop until friday.

betsyin2010

I did. Baby was born in the a.m. when I usually go #2 and I felt a lot better after it was out even though I was drug free and minutes from pushing baby out.

BlondieBia21

I ended up with a c section but at one point the nurse was down in my lady business to check how I was doing and I tooted. The only way I knew I tooted was because I heard it. I looked at my mom and said that I thought I just tooted but wasn't for sure. Then bam, toot comes again, right as the nurse was down there to remove the folley and I said "oh no I think I tooted." And she said "why yes, yes you did."

That's as good of a story as I got.

I know exactly how you feel. It was the biggest rush I've ever experienced and it was nothing short of amaZing.

shelbell1028

I didn't with DS but did with DD.

KatieRu920

Totally did, 3 times. They quickly changed the pad on the bed and wiped me and good as new! I didn't care at that point and knew I was going to from the pressure I was feeling. My mom and husband got to see that lovely action...oh well!

Camysmom

I was in labor for 30 freaking hours and hadn't eaten in about 35 so imagine my surprise when H reported that I birthed an 8 pound baby and a 4 pound turd. He didn't need to sound so happy about it. Visions of telling that story for the rest of his life were dancing in his head I'm sure.

DaniB091 said:

I didn't, because I was basically trapped in the bathroom in early labor TMI. Baby pooped all over me when he was born though!

Me too. I spent a lot of time in the bathroom during early labor. Plus, I ended up having a c section so that would have been interesting. 

My LO on the other hand passed meconium in utero before he was delivered.

I was cracking up when I read this. Hilarious.

nurseclare9

I am pretty sure I pooped the entire 45min of pushing. My husband brought it up a few days later when I was discussing how icky the pushing was, he was just like "I saw poo....I don't want to see that again...." Thanks..totally intentional lol

tanabeans

It was the last thing on my mind but I don't think so, my ob kept talking out the size of my hemroid though.

coraggiosa

I did not poop, according to DH. However, I actually went on the toilet earlier in labor, so I'm sure that helped.

danal613

Nope, but I remember my first push I farted.

carrotcake06

My first was a vag delivery and no pooping.

The twins were a c/s under general anesthesia.

amarissa85

I thought at one point I had because it felt like it, but both the nurse an DH looked and said no.

JBrooks315

I didn't. I had a mirror and never saw anything. DH confirmed this. However, my LO pooped all over me about a minute after they laid her on my chest.

PrimRoseMama

I totally did. Don't care! :P

Pooooooop

I'll play, I
totally did and told the nurse it was coming. Not my finest hour.

Edit: told her the poop was coming not the baby lol.

Same. She was like "no, it just feels that way." And I told her and then proved her wrong. Hahaha tmi, not sorry.

Exact same thing for me! I straight up said I can't hold it in and she said its just the baby. So I said fine I'm going to relax then and sure enough...Clean up Aisle 5!

cortneyloo

DH says he never saw anything. I trust him. When I was pushing it honestly felt like something was being shoved up my butt, not coming out lol

MissyCee

I don't believe I did. I never smelled anything or felt anything or was told I did so I'm assuming no. I did go a lot during early labor before going to the hospital and I didn't have anything but a popsicle and ice chips after that so that could be why.

I had a really awesome labor and delivery experience. If I could go back and do it all over I gladly would!
