Trapped wind, nipples and school transport!

I. Am. Mortified.
DS goes to a special school and because it's far away he gets help with transport to and from school. Minibus has dropped him off. Now, I get terrible trapped wind (sorry if tmi) and it spreads into my shoulder blades and boobs so I took bra off to relieve the pain but still had rest of outfit on (skinny jeans, strappy top and t shirt) As usual I went out to collect him from bus. And yes you could see nips as it was chilly. Proceeded to get a loud telling off from chaperone (in front of neighbours and kids who were all playing outside) saying I should be "appropriately covered" when getting DS off bus! Everyone heard, I'm so embarrassed. Surely wearing/not wearing a bra at all times is the prerogative of the individual?! Who is BU here?

The escort was rude!

Wind in your nipples

Namechangetempissue · 22/09/2017 16:05

FGS they are just bloody nipples. Covered nipples at that. Chaperone has a stick up their arse and is a twat for addressing the "issue" in front of lots of other people.

Hang on, strappy top and t-shirt? So t-shirt with vest underneath?
How is that less appropriate than bra and t-shirt?

Booboostwo · 22/09/2017 16:39

She was incredibly rude and unprofessional. I'd raise a complaint with her employer.

Youcanttaketheskyfromme · 22/09/2017 16:41

How rude and unprofessional!

Iamagreyhoundhearmeroar · 22/09/2017 16:43

Wind doesn't spread to your shoulders and boobs. You seem a little unsound on basic biology...

TheDodgyEnd · 22/09/2017 16:48

@Iamagreyhoundhearmeroar maybe my GP's knowledge of biology is less sound than yours.

And thanks to those affirming my thoughts that I wasn't indecent.

It's not compulsory to wear a bra either.

Have you never heard of referred pain?

pizzaparty11 · 22/09/2017 16:55

really?

abbsisspartacus · 22/09/2017 16:57

I know what you mean about the wind

Anyway contact there employer they shouldn't be looking at your breasts anyway

SezziBaybee · 22/09/2017 16:58

I get trapped wind that spreads- it's excruciating! She was rude. You should complain x

Notevilstepmother · 22/09/2017 16:58

I get referred pain in my shoulders if I have trapped wind.

I'd complain. I might say I had a bad back and couldn't wear a bra as that's slightly less embarrassing.

She should wind her neck in.

Flatpeaches · 22/09/2017 16:59

The shoulder pain is from diaphragmatic irritation totally plausible. What colour where the vest and t shirt?

youarenotkiddingme · 22/09/2017 17:01

Oh yes trapped wind does. Most cases of people admitted to hospital with suspected gallbladder problems have trapped wind which shows up when they have x ray!

In fact of the 3 times I've been in (not for wind!) I've seen 5 people admitted, diagnosed and discharged with this.

As for the escort she was rude. I'd be contacting her supervisor saying quite frankly how dare she embarrass you in public and comment on your choice of underwear.

VelvetSpoon · 22/09/2017 17:01

OP - have you ever had your gallbladder checked?

I used to get a pain like this
It was only when it got worse, radiated to my chest (and I thought I was having a heart attack and ended up in A &E) that it got investigated and it turned out I have gallstones...

youarenotkiddingme · 22/09/2017 17:02

Many cases - not most! I have no actual statistics of wind vs gallstones Grin

@TheDodgyEnd no sensible advice to offer but you do win Thread Title of The Day!

MrsOverTheRoad · 22/09/2017 17:05

I NEVER wear a bra. She'd have got a piece of my mind RIGHT back. Who the fuck does she think she IS?

Not suitable for the job in my opinion.

flumpybear · 22/09/2017 17:05

Crikey does the escort also cover her table
Legs in case someone sees them - very poor manners from her - what would she say if it happened to a man's nipples?

Hang on .... was she wearing pearls Hmm

You had a cami type top on with a T-shirt over it, or your t-shirt was the cami type top?

Either way, it's not really the escort's business unless you're waving your bare nips in his/her face.

Shockers · 22/09/2017 17:07

Btw, my right breast really hurts when I need a poo, so I believe you!

rightknockered · 22/09/2017 17:07

Definitely make a complaint. Bloody rude woman. I'd go out with just a vest and no bra next time.
(I have put my ds on his bus in just a dressing gown with nothing underneath.)
