Honestly if it happens they won't tell you. I wouldn't even worry about it. The way I see it is the doctors and nurses have seen it all many times before and your poop is the least of their worries,focus is on baby!

That's why they don't let you eat at the hospital lol. I'm also worried about that. My aunt and mom said they used to give a clean out of the colon before labor to help prevent it but I've heard they don't do that anymore. But I'm pretty sure they're used to it. Lol

Most women do but they clean it up without anyone noticing. It happens because when u push u r pushing like you do when you have a bowel movement so if its and fecal matter n your colon all that pushing will get it out. Surprisingly that's the least of my worries lol
