I hate having to pee every five minutes. The placenta, I saw mine, was really cool looking. Make sure next time around you take a look at it. It's awesome! And, sadly, I did poo. It wasn't pretty.Erikahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13584639188622772741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4222252849231409375.post-32664320320862466522010-02-07T15:37:27.202-08:002010-02-07T15:37:27.202-08:00Man, I HATED the catheter.

Mostly because it was so dang painful to put in. <br /><br />I'm just a few weeks away from delivering my 3rd and now you've got me all worried about pooping on the table again! And how scary to be cuddling your son and have him stop breathing. I'll be on the lookout for that this time, too.Wonder Womanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01286006629537084653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4222252849231409375.post-25512811615515063422010-02-02T21:34:33.704-08:002010-02-02T21:34:33.704-08:00Haha i totally felt the same way about the pooing!...Haha i totally felt the same way about the pooing!! your body becomes everyone elses when you have that baby.

Hilarious.<br /><br />I definitely was not prepared for all the un-glamarous side effects of having a baby. Like the fact that you can't even wipe when you go to the bathroom. Nothing like a squirt bottle to make you feel all squeaky clean down there. Not. And speaking of "poo," my terror of that came AFTER the baby was born. I was so nervous for my first bowel movement, I was practically in tears. <br /><br />And just think, I get to do it again in a few months!Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18210672751020722733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4222252849231409375.post-38795656313829595082010-02-02T13:34:26.021-08:002010-02-02T13:34:26.021-08:00I so hear you on the pooping bit.

Another awful part was using the restroom the first time after the birth and having the nurses go with. They sprayed me with the little squirt bottle and I was like, "well, any dignity and privacy I had is now officially gone!" (add in the part where the nurse was a girl I knew from high school and the whole scene just gets worse. sigh.) Gotta love giving birth. But it's worth it in the end!Tiffanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02042766083627737940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4222252849231409375.post-54598925183649420182010-02-02T12:39:17.643-08:002010-02-02T12:39:17.643-08:00I was scared to death that I was going to poop whi...I was scared to death that I was going to poop while I was pushing. I didn't say anything to the nurse, but I told Curtis not to tell me if I did. I'm proud to say I didn't!!<br />The placenta didn't look as gross as i thought it would. My midwife picked it up and taught us all about it. It was actually kind of neat to see where my baby had lived for the last 9 months. <br />Next baby, make sure you look!The Moore Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08787665137144514021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4222252849231409375.post-22071409245868081252010-02-02T05:51:55.657-08:002010-02-02T05:51:55.657-08:00Oh yea-losing all modesty and all sense of what is...Oh yea-losing all modesty and all sense of what is appropriate to say or not say-that's what it's all about during labor and delivery- Yes, I had my moments too!

How can you not pee? Now I know.Brittany Collierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13018193864526448310noreply@blogger.com
