1st Trimester

Oh the embarrassment of it all

Ever since I found out I was pregnant, I have been frequenting the bathroom more.  Of course I know this is normal, but I have to tell you pooping at work is so embarrassing.  Pre-pregnancy, I could hold it until I got home... now, not a chance in hell. I am so scared someone is going to walk into the bathroom and know what I'm doing?  Is anyone else having anxiety about this?  I am so embarrased!!!

Re: Oh the embarrassment of it all

  • i poo in the quite private, upstairs bathroom so no, i have no worries.

  • Luckily that is why they have restrooms. So you can pee and poop even if it's more than normal. I wouldn't worry about it. People don't really care and have better things to gossip about.
  • you poop in the bathroom at work?!?!? ::gasp:: how un-ladylike!!!
  • I am not a fan of pooping in public places, but I will if I have to!

  • What i am soo excited when i get to poop you have no idea... I poop on the plane thats right I DO IT! I like to say its the only time i get paid to do crap! :)
  • I'm more embarrassed when I cut one really loudly. I have no idea how I'm going to handle barfing in the public restroom.
  • just be glad you can poop....
  • i pretty much always poop at work. i just wait til nobody else is in there, or i use the one upstairs (usually pretty empty). but hey, when you've gotta go, you've gotta go.

     everybody poops.  (and i figure this way, i don't have to clean the toilet!)

  • We have a one stall, unisex bathroom. There's only about 12 of us, so I don't worry about it at all! I don't really even think about it. Actually, I work with my brother and he does it just to pass some time. He affectionately calls them "Work Poops". (That is seriously no joke!)

  • Does anyone watch How I Met Your Mother? There was a hilarious episode about this recently. Ultimately, Marshall decided he just needed to have confidence and go for it, and people would look up to him for having the guts to poop at work.

    Stick out tongue
