To ask you what's the most satisfying thing your body has done?

I was taking codeine alongside iron supplements. Needless to say, I was backing up and the GP advised eight sachets of Laxido in one go as soon as I got back home and another eight before bed. It worked and the result was as long and as thick as my forearm. I stood there for a good couple of minutes in a mixture of shock and awe!

I was at a very fancy 'do', dressed up to the nines and wearing my 'hold it all in' knickers. About half way through I got the most awful trapped wind. It was agony. I wanted to roll around on the floor kicking at my belly like a horse with colic. Luckily the 'do' was in the hotel where I was staying, so I excused myself, took myself up to my room and rolled about on the bed after I'd taken my knickers off. I did a fart so long and loud that it sounded like a passing jet overhead, and was then capable of rejoining the party. I felt SO much better afterwards.

Apparently drink a can of coke - if it ever happens again! (Although hope not)

Managing to finally, after some minutes, swallow the fish bone that had become firmly caught at the back of my throat. I thought I might have to go to hospital to have it removed. Massive satisfying relief.

Ants love boob milk, when DC2 was small I was staying at MILs who had an ant issue, I caught one on my breast pump lapping up some spilt milk. I think I would have fainted if one tried to climb into my nip! Glad you got it out.

One month instead of a period I passed the whole uterus lining in one go. It was a perfect cast of my uterus and absolutely fascinating, also very convient to have my period over with in a day. Of course I googled to find out what happened and it's called a decidual cast, quite rare apparently.

When DH came back from Afghanistan he had the most amazing sandy blackhead on his back that went on for ages!

Wow, that’s really weird. Glad you woke up.

I always remember from 37 years ago. I explain as passes a tree trunk and it felt like it too. I thought it was going to split me in half.

The chin spot I had been cultivating for weeks. Angry, red and it was absolutely ripe.

I put a hot cloth on it to draw it out and soften it.
I then gave it a squeeze...

My god.

That lump produced about 5 sacs of pus that hit the mirror. Individual, delicious sacs of hideousness. And left a crater in my chin. I've still got a scar 20 years later. But my god, it was worth it.

İt's not really satisfying but it's definitely the strangest and I feel like I've been holding this story in a long time......I had had a missed miscarriage some months before and still had some symptoms, including excreting milk like fluid from my nipples. I was having a lay down on a patch of grass and dozed off. When I woke up, there was a really weird crawling feeling coming from my nipple and I was driving me insane. I had a peek inside my top and an ant had crawled head first into the duct and was drinking the milk from me. I tried to blow or flick it off me and its body blew away but the head was still stuck. Obviously I was quite worried about it getting stuck there, but eventually it was a satisfying feeling getting the head out with my fingernails.

Same!
Last year, 2 days in hospital in absolute agony, hooked up to a morphine drip.
The relief when I passed it was immense.
Read an article the other day on what was the most agonising pain, kidney stone was 4th on the list, more painful than a gunshot wound apparently.

What’s a phantom poo?

This little beauty. Thankfully I started a thread about it, so can reminisce whenever I want to.

Completely emptying my bowels after a very large dinner. The satisfaction is unparalleled

Standing up after delivering my second born and feeling my organs slide back down into place in my abdomen with a kind of plopping motion.

Weirdest feeling but oddly satisfying

Let me give birth vaginally.Hated every second of labour so glad it ended well

The frankly epic poo I had after having DD1 by C-section. It was so fulsome and buoyant that the bastard refused to flush. In the end, DH had to chop it up using the loo brush (he was assisting because I was still tottery on my feet).

It was a special moment.

@DollopOfFun thanks for this comment 😂🤣 I’m laughing whilst reading it out to my sister, I could barely get my words out without laughing inbetween 😂 xx

Was in the cinema and my eye was itching, it had been low key bothering me all day but during the film became unbearable.

Popped to the loos to have a look and noticed a hair sticking out of my tear duct! The smallest few millimetres just poking out. Managed to grab it and slowly pulled a fairly long eyelash out of the duct. Instant relief. Glorious.

Some type of norovirus as a teenager when I had to sit in the bath for 24 hours

And vomited, pooed and pissed and bled from the eyes all at the same time

The spiral ingrown hair in my armpit that I’d tried digging out for years. Started to think it was a vein. Must have been 5cm long.

Ear abscess that finally erupted and landed near my elbow.

MY BEST one - bilateral dermoid cysts. One had grown its own blood supply and wrapped itself round an overy and was the size of a slightly deflated rugby ball apparently! Mostly hair and teeth. Gutted they wouldn’t let me keep it.

Weirdly I loved childbirth. Kind of like running long distances. It can be a bit uncomfortable at times, but it's strangely satisfying. Plus, i also founx it almost spiritual. Hard to describe. I was gutted that my last labour was under 2 hours from first contraction to birth. I felt robbed of the full birth experience!

OMG that first post partom poo. So satisfying and terrifying at the same time.
