I sneezed. And it made me pee a little. In the middle of a Child Study/Intervention meeting I was leading. Present at the meeting were my boss, a coworker, and a set of parents.

I just kept on talking...

On the butt medicine name front, my doctor prescribed me some loveliness called ANUCORT. And yes, it's a suppository. And in super-gross-out TMI, I inserted one earlier this evening, and later was sitting on the couch where naturally I passed gas. There is now a grease splotch where I was sitting from the suppository grease going through 2 layers of clothing. Now I have to figure out how to get mineral oil out of the couch. Let this be a cautionary tale. On the plus side, the stuff seems to be working.

my poor dh... he's running around panting after me. which, i feel all lovely and loved, but just not interested. maybe the strange pockets of painful gas in my chest whenever i get horizontal have something to do with it. a couple months ago, it was the child sitting squarely on my bladder that made me feel like there was no room in there for any... extracurricular activity, shall we say, and had me terrified that sex would give me an instant UTI.

[oyinmama]

and also. i am slower in the digestion department, but not stopped, for which i am thankful. i was one of those 2-3 times a day-ers, and now it's 0-2 and can get almost bloated feeling but never super uncomfortable. no roids. no noticeable gas increases or differences, from that direction anyway.

no, my gastric excitement is happening further north, in the chest region, with this extreme, almost mechanical gas pain in my chest whenever i lay down. not to mention, my back hurts so much that laying down on our new and lovely memory foam mattress topper at the end of the dya is like, the high point of my life... except 5 minutes after i lay down my chest is on fire. i need a new pillow position every night and experiment with levels of incline trying to find something comfy, which never happens until i give up, sit up, twist around, get my back rubbed, or just commence 15 minutes of purposeful belching. ooh... sexy! in recent days it's graduated to add heartburn to the mix as well, hooray!!

[pixiepunk]

for heart burn/reflux - two words: *papaya extract*

seriously a miracle. you've got to take it preventatively, but when you know you have continual heartburn, that's not such a bad idea. knocked out my horrid reflux in my last pregnancy the first time i took it and it never came back again. i've been pretty lucky this time around... so far... but i've already got some papaya extract in the cupboard just in case.

[Meksmama]

I got dressed the other morning and within 15 minutes I had a sneezing fit and peed my pants I didn't have to go before either. The kegel I was doing didn't even stop it from coming.

And the descriptions some of you are giving are cracking me up!!!

[ashleyb87]

Ok I totally agree with the whole square peg through round hole thing EVERY DAY!!! I have to allow 20+ minutes every time I go in to poop! And the whole no sex drive thing-totally agree with that too-DH told me this morning he had blue balls-I told him we better have a go in the shower

The ones they sell in stores don't work for me-also do you get lactose-free milk? I'm on WIC and they allow me to get it too. I love the Albertson's brand of lactose-free but the Lactaid is ok too. As for yogurt and stuff there are no alternatives

Oh, honey!!! ROTFLMAO!! That's too hysterical! Did the oil come out of your clothes? I wouldn't even know where to begin on the couch, but if your regular detergent worked on your clothes, it might not be so bad!
Re: the ANUSOL...it is a horrid name! Why do you think they recently changed it to Tucks? LMAO!
I honestly don't have a lot of TMI...I've spent the last couple of days racking my brains and waiting for something good to happen to share. Alpaca reminded me of a good one though...I've had really fantastically noisy gas for months and months now. (Though it only seems to get really bad if I've eaten at her house.) Well there was one night I drove my own DH out of the bedroom...even with earplugs he couldn't get any sleep lying next to me!
(Oh yeah, and Alpaca Wacka tried to save face by coming through the drive thru yesterday for her Proctofoam. I almost picked up the phone and hollered at her through the camera, "How's yer BUTT????" but there were too many customers around. She got lucky that time...)

[paphia]

Yes! Where does all that sweat come from? Normally I never sweat down there, and it hasn't happened too often during this pg... but still... when it has, I look down and freak out for a second. Is this something I need to be worried about? I think to myself. But the soak pattern belies the fact it can't be anything but a sweaty crotch.

Damn I just sneezed so much I peed. Gotta go.

[celestialdreamer]

I'm laughing so hard over here that I've got tears coming out of my eyes and my dd keeps asking me what I'm doing : Laughing *WITH* you all of course, as this is my THIRD pregnancy since 2003! I've been there, done that and gotten the t-shirt My latest TMI info is that I have officially turned my DH's sex drive off. Normally he is *always* in the mood but apparently me squishing him isn't such a turn on : He told me last night that he surprisingly isn't in the mood much anymore...

I think this calls for a group hug everyone : at least we can keep each other company with all this fun stuff!

[nutbee]

ah, this is a brillant thread! Thanks all for sharing.

my dh isn't much into sex with my gianormous body lately either. When I ask (total change around there), he gives me a, "I... suppose." Well, if it's not too much trouble for you

My biggest gross out factor is that after throwing up everyday through 2 pregnancies now, I'm not very shy about gagging or even letting 'er go anytime, anywhere. I threw up in front of chuck e cheese not too long ago - in front of the big picture windows (into a receptacle, don't worry, I'm not that bad) - and then sauntered in with my 3 yr old. Hey, it was our first (and last) visit ever. And, whaddya know, everytime we got in line for a game, the line just mysteriously disappeared

[rubyeta]

This thread is hilarious!! I am pretty lucky in the poop dept. My problem is crusty bloody boogers. Not the kind that you can blow out either. And i have an endless supply of them. I think it must be pregnancy related because i have only had this problem when i am pregnant. I am sure winter weather doesn't help though.

[milosmomma]

Since I've been pregnant, the switch between coughing, gagging & vomitting is VERY sensitive. The other morning I started coughing, quickly started gagging and finally knew I was going to puke. I hadn't eaten yet, so it was mostly saliva & dry heaving (SEXY!). In the middle of that, I felt my nose begin to run...only it was drops of blood that were falling into the toilet. I dry heaved until my nose bled! How Punk Rock is that????

Somewhere in the middle of this, I heard myself say "Oh, you have GOT to be kidding me."

[pixiepunk]

this morning, DH and i were sitting together in the office, i was on the computer (shock) and he was sorting through seeds for the garden. anyways, i've had a lot of congestion and chest congestion as i'm getting over this cold. so i'm snorting, sniffling, and coughing up phlegm (then spitting the phlegm out in the garbage can - yum). i was drinking a cup of hot tea, and weirdly, it made me belch. loudly.

DH just started laughing and exclaimed "well, you're just a regular old symphony of bodily noises this morning!"

i tell ya, i felt so glamorous it was like i'd just been crowned miss america

I thought I was the only one!! I swear, they're like cornflakes. And they grow so fast that I have to wake up in the middle of the night and take care of them so that I can breathe again.

I truly b/c this is so me right now. Plegm in the garbage can and all. Add that to gas...could start a band together. :

I have this too! I figured it was a pregnancy thing but it's reassuring to hear others have it too. I don't remember having it with any of the other three.

I honestly don't think it was coming out of me without intervention. And boy did it HURT. Since this is the TMI thread . . . I had to REACH IN and pinch off small parts of turd repeatedly to get to the point where the rest could come out. Plenty of anal bleeding, and afterward my entire pelvic floor felt weird. Saggy. Thank goodness that went away over the course of the next few hours.

It was such a trauma I wanted to share it with someone, so my poor DH had to listen to the details. (He heard me grunting and moaning in the bathroom and honestly was worried about me anyway . . . he was worried all day, actually, since I moaned lightly every time I had to sit down.) Thanks, AlpacaWacka, for giving me a place to share it again, though I hope none of you can 100% relate!

OH MY GOSH this EXACT thing happened to me yesterday.

seriously word for word. except pulling bits off only worked partially so i got naked and filled up the tub (thank goodness tub and toilet are right next to each other) and got in the tub, poop half hanging out to try to get things moving along..

a few unsuccessful attempts at this later, i seriously gave up, sucked the thing back in (very uncomfortably), thoroughly washed my hands which were covered in bright red blood and poo, and couldn't walk or sit for the rest of the night. i drank like 800 cups of metamucil and the rest finally came out today and i felt extremely accomplished when it did...

worst part about it? we were away for the weekend with my in laws so it wasn't even my own bathroom.. gotta love hotel towels though, didn't even have to get any of mine messy. but the bathroom seriously looked like a murder scene. of the crap variety.
