did you ever poop the whole time while pushing your baby out?

Question

I'm 25 weeks pregnant and I hate the fact that I pooped the whole time I was pushing with my 1st pregnancy. I'm worried I'll do it on my 2nd one! I know it's normal but still.. I want to know how many of you did and didn't...

Answer

they say it's a sign that you are pushing the right way, so you are doing exactly what is needed. That little piece of info helped me a little bit.

Answer

I did a little with my first. I didn't with my second. just had my 3rd 5 days ago and I pooped a lot!

Answer

I was really constipated my entire pregnancy. One little turd came out during pushing for me.

Answer

I did a little bit with my first. I didn’t with my second. Hopefully I won’t with this one

Answer

I did! But literally didn’t even know I did it the nurses wiped it away immediately 😂

Answer

I pooped a little and idgaf lol when you’re pushing something that big out of there like come home how can you not?

Answer

I had to have csections, but watched my sister birth twice. She pooped both times. The hospital staff cleaned it up so quickly and discretely that nobody else, not even her, even noticed. She delivered at two different hospitals, and I was surprised to find they both handled it the same way. It really just wasn't a big deal. Plus, your SO is usually up near your top half helping you push from what I've seen. It would be the last concern I'd have.

Answer

My SO makes jokes that I'm going to shit in front of him before farting  *Eyeroll* (little does he know, I let farts out when he's sleeping so technically I have farted in front of him & he just doesnt know it) 😂 I definitely feel like ill poop during birth (its our first) because I have such a fast metabolism.

Answer

No but it might have helped that I had major cramps and emptied myself before the epidural. But then again I could have and they just not said anything since it can be a natural thing.
