I didn't lose plug before water broke either. And... (spoiler alert... this IS gross...) I did poop on the table.

It was SOOO embarassing.

While I was in labor, mind you this was 1989, a nurse comes in to shave me. A different nurse came in and said, you don't have to shave her, I replied, "yeah, just trim off the dead ends and feather it a little".

Now I did not fart on the table but, I did have four bowel movements..........lol I was sooooooo embarrassed! Luckily I went into shock and passed out.

Delivery time, the doctor was wearing what looked like a welder's mask. I asked him if he was expecting flames to come out of there. Took him like an hour and a half to stitch me up. I asked him if he was doing f'ing embroidery.

You are so funny!! Running to the bathroom before I pee myself!! Hahahaaa!!!

It's okay! We all poop, you know!

So what happens if you don't lose your plug? Do they pop that sucker like a cork or what???

My water broke the morning of a doctor appointment anyway. I wasn't really having contractions. (Only the hicks contractions).

At the appointment, I told assistant that I wasn't sure if my water broke or not (It didn't gush, just kept trickling... - and I had a freind go to the hospital with those symptoms & got laughed at by the nurse & told to go home, because she was only peeing.)

Anyway, so they get me back to the examine room as soon as I said that. Doc checked my cervix & said I was dilated at 1 and to go straight to hospital.

When I was getting dressed, there was the plug, on the examine table paper sheet. Kinda gross looking. (White snotty looking, a tiny blood).

I think, because my plug didn't fall out, that when water broke, it just kinda leaked around the plug. I have a feeling if plug had fallen out, it would have been more of a gush of water.

I also wasn't progressing very fast in labor when I got there. They had to put me on pitosin.- My son's heartbeat keep going down after a push & didn't come back up very well, so doc had to use forcepts to help. Don't worry, my kid is smart. No repricotions.

Just don't worry about it all... Everyone has slightly different experiences, the doctors have seen all & know what to do.

Childbirth....oh how glorious. There were like 8 people in there with me. Quite a few were interns. The doctor asked me if I cared if they "observed". I normally would have been embarrassed but, when the labor was at it's worst I could care less who saw my stuff.

LOL, at first, I thought you meant you were part of nintuplets!
Then i thought you were talking about all the people that had to "check" you. I would have screamed after 4.

ok, done eating, you can resume the poop, farting and messy child birth stories.
anybody throw up lately?

[Confused_and_bitter]

I lost my plug at a bathroom at a Denny's! H and I went to eat after my Drs appt and he gave me an option of getting admitted then or going to get some food and come back at night.

I remember being so grossed out! It was all gooey and bloody! :P I ended up going home and went to the hospital the next morning, the dr came in to pop my water with the giant crochet hook. I also pooped during labor, H was holding one leg and my mon the other I swore H was trying to take my leg out of the delivery room! Anyway, I remember H looking at me and loudly announcing "You pooped!" I forgot about my pain and embarrassment took over for a second.

Hugs to everyone on here and a big thank you as well :-)

I gave birth in the same hospital that I worked at, so I was pretty nervous about people I work with seeing me that way, but by the time I was in heavy labor the whole world could have looked and I wouldn't have cared. Pain will do that to ya

[that_girl]

When I was giving birth, I would have paid the bum outside to grab the kid out of me. My modesty left 2 months earlier. lol.

But no, 2nd, I haven't thrown up today. Although my meds make me sooo nauseated.
