Haha girl..omg..the last thing you will be worried about is pooping! They give you a catheter so you don't pee everywhere lol. I pushed for 2 and a half hours and barely had a pinch of poo come out. I didn't even notice though. They very quickly folded the pad that i was laying on under my booty and that was it lol. I only noticed them folding because she was holding one of my legs up and had to pause i second. Plus I asked lol. I am normally super embarrassed about that sort of thing but I didn't give a flyin fudge! Lol!

Of your gonna poop you're gonna poop and no doctor or nurse is going to judge you for it, an epidural doesn't make it any more or less likely.

Oh baby Jesus no.... They don't even flinch , they deal with this stuff multiple times a day every day ... There probably isn't anything they haven't seen unless you have an elephant sized vagina with gangrene then they may look at you weird lol but I assume that's not the case, giving birth was the most amazing thing it was hard and painful but just focus on bringing your baby into this world and with every push your one step closer to holding your little miracle and its just the craziest overflow of emotion the second you hold her/ him its totally worth it I want another one already and so does my husband and our baby just 12 weeks old lol it's so great
