So I was having a convo with my friend who then told me a funny story her mum told her

I really dont want to poop but I'm not going to stop my partner being there just because of that he loves me and we share the bathroom while each other poop anyway lol xx

I've heard it's so common. Because all being well I'm having a water birth I'm worried that if I do poo I'll see it because it will be floating around :(. My friend farted in the Dr's face whilst he was examining her but because she had an epidural she heard it but didn't feel it so started telling her husband off!! He gently broke that it was her, lol xXx

My partner and mam were there and to be honest you really don't care. It's all about getting the baby our safe and sound. Your mind goes elsewhere and you concentrate. The amount of midwives and doctors that seen me in all my glory was unreal, but now my little man is here Im not bothered who seen what hah xx

I wouldn't be fussed tbh. Been with the man 5years and I'm least from discrete.. I shit with the bathroom door open & talk & fart like a bloke lol. Don't think anything would shock him lol xx

I thankfully didn't poo! But my other half was watching our baby come out and i was happy because I wanted him to :D he wasn't phased just said it looked funny haha! I wouldn't worry Hun! I was in so much pain I didn't care who was down there lol I just wanted her out xx

My bf was holding my hands when I delivered Melody. He didn't want to go away because I was in such pain ( I didn't get any anesthesia). I was worried about him in the room at first but I didn't care as much when I decided to "push" when I felt my baby's head down there...

I told my other half not to go down that end but he did and he even held the lamp to my Noonie when they were stitching me up 🙈 shitting myself was the last thing on my mind I felt like my insides were coming out lol

I did poo but my partner was at the bottom watching my little boy coming out because he wanted to experience it, trust me when your in labour and want to get the baby out you won't care what happens, I was always scared but I didn't care haha xx

My partner wouldn't care if I pooped, he wants to watch as baby is born and doesn't want to miss the birth at all x

I don't know if I did or not. If I did my husband never saw it. At the time I wasn't bothered where he was & what he saw. He got noisy & looked down there when I was pushing & I'll never forget his face! He said he'd never forget our sons head poking out of me! 😂😂😂

i pooped too @winterbaby95 i am sure i did. i cried because of it and my hubs mouth was saying "its ok, its nothing to cry about" but i could tell his eyes were saying "you're fucking disgusting!" 😂😂 i was so embarrassed though. being out of this world on gas and air didn't help matters haha! xx

Think staying head end is practically so you both see baby same time if your not medically trained you have no business being that end 😂 well unless your in a position you didn't make it to the hospital on time kind of thing! Haha love the stories ladies @tg123456789 @briony1994 @winterbaby95 @daniluvsdis xx

to be fair the midwifes get rid of the evidence pretty quick b4 anyone notices.... my hubby will sit with me and hold my hand if I have diarrhoea and am poorly... xx

@briony1994, haha I'm like that with my OH! Except he wouldn't go down the bottom end coz he'd likely pass out & we haven't got to the pooing stage! That's his limit he says! Number ones okay, but not two!!x

I think I pooped :) I could smell it lol! I had 2 midwives with me...a male doctor and he brought 3 other people in the room..also the male doctor delivered my daughter :) and my OH was present throughout :) I wouldn't want my OH to miss the birth for anything :) Don't think he would be bothered if I pooed or not :) He is my best friend...my partner..we share everything together..tell each other everything :) Once I leaked period blood while sleeping next to him...he wasn't bothered by it...I've talked to him about constipation and all sorts xx

yes exactly @cc7 lol 😅

My OH is coming in with me but he's staying head end but at the time I probably won't care if he wants to have a peak, we have a really open relationship to the point he's in the shower and if I need to poo then I poo🙈🙈 hahaha xx

@cc7, my sister pooed both times....

Stay where I can strangle you 😂 @tam77 x

i have hubby in the room to give moral support and experience the birth but he's always under strict instructions head end only lol xx
