Is there a specific reason why you are scared?? It is such a low number of women who die during birth especially in developped countries. I'm more scared of the pain and whether I will poop on the table in front of my hubby while I am pushing.Lol

Haha, yes i'm hoping that I won't poop in the delivery room, but I got a while to wait for that.

Jillian, you probably have a greater risk of dying in a car wreck on the way tto the hospital than dying during labor!

Yes people poo on the table. Lol. It's common. You are pushing almost in the same way as when you.....So it happens. I heard this is one of the reasons they say don't eat when you go into labor. Idk. I wasn't scared of dying until the nurse said I had to have a blood transfusion. I didn't know much about them and just assumed I was dying or something. Even though I felt great. I never did have a transfusion, idk what she was talking about.

I'm really scared of labor but i'm not scared of maybe dying. I'm mostly scared of things like what if my baby's cord gets wrapped around his neck or something else like that happens during labor, and i'm scared of the pain from the contractions. But now after reading this I guess i'm most scared f pooping on the table. Yuck!!

i made it through pushing without pooping, but pooped about 3 hours later! My epidural hadn't worn off yet because my labor was so fast, so I couldn't control anything down there! But yeah, chances are, you will!

Yeh, u have about an 85% chance u will poop while pushing... I did :oops:
i thought I needed to poop real bad, so I ran/ waddled to the toilet.. Only too practicaly push her head out while I were on the loo.
Luckily your too exhausted and exited about just having a baby, to really care whether u have pooped yourself or not though.

Blah, I pooped on the table, but I was all alone, no fam, no friends, no camera, just a bunch of strangers, it was embarrassing, but I got over it, it's not like sami will ever know
