To stick a newspaper under my arse and squat ??

HELPMyPooIsStuck · 04/11/2012 21:37

I've been bunged up for days, so far i've tried raising my feet on the loo, sat with the paper and a coffee hoping gravity would take effect ( it didn't) rocking back and forth, vaseline splodges and drinking enough water to sink the marie celeste.

I've also tried prunes, treacle and shredded wheat.

I don't even like shredded wheat.

Bar the odd feeble offering loggy ain't shifting, it's right at the launch pad so to speak but just isn't taking off, I can actually feel it when I bend down etc, it appears to have set like clay.

So, in the interests of avoiding to mathmaticians route ( working it out with a pencil ) and in the absence of a bucket an old tub. Would I be unreasonale to shove a newspaper underneath my poor, long suffering arse and squat ??

How are you getting on op? Do you think in time you'll give him or her a little brother or sister?

"Double espresso and a roll up."

DP is that you? Shock

My DH was a senior nurse manager for a Dementia unit and has sadly had patients admitted for respite who needed manual extraction under GA after Piccolax has not worked. They used to do it on the ward years ago before realising the effects of vagal feedback i.e they sometimes died.....Sad....

Faecal Vomiting can occur if you have intestinal obstruction caused by, say, a tumour or intusseption,. It's very very distressing and i am glad my Ddad was spared it- he had Gastric cancer.

cheeseandpineapple · 05/11/2012 15:10

Bupcakes, you've made my mascara streak.

Hilarious thread and former thread, literally been crying with laughter.

OP, thanks for sharing and happy for you that the deed has now been done.

Am about to google faecal vomiting.

I know I'm completely sick so to speak. But surely that's complete "bullshit" -am about to find out...

cheeseandpineapple · 05/11/2012 15:11

Sorry mignonette -crossed post, sounds horrendous.

BlueSuedeStiletto · 05/11/2012 15:13

It's not bullshit I'm afraid cheese. It's horrid horrid horrid. And the smell is UNREAL. I always feel very very sorry for patients I see it happen to.

And even sorrier for the Domestics who have to clear it up.

redredruby · 05/11/2012 15:20

I am currently in hospital due to back injury being given lots of codine for pain and am becoming quite nervous!

mignonette · 05/11/2012 15:29

That's okay Cheese - There is a fascination regarding these horrid things our bodies can do.

redruby Please do not avoid pain relief because of this thread. Keep your fluids up, doubt you'll be wanting that much solid food anyway and withdraw meds slowly. Ask the nursing staff to draw up a plan to manage any digestive blips-they will not include vomiting poop (smile)........

TigerFeet · 05/11/2012 15:30

That thing where you're sat at your desk contorting into odd positions and going puce because you're trying not to laugh so hard that you spray spit and snot everywhere?

Well that.

Well done OP, and congratulations. Could it be twins though? Thanks

mignonette · 05/11/2012 15:33

Tigerfeet

Not twins, but maybe a retained 'placenta' Grin

You should smoke a cigarette that will get you going, I've nearly had many an accident during my morning smoke

HELPMyPooIsStuck · 05/11/2012 15:58

Well there have been aftershocks after the original (poonami) I had to shuffle off in Morrisons cafe earlier where i'd risked having a coffee with a friend, my arse now feels and no doubt looks like rusty old barbed wire but even that can't cloud my shit free haze.

I'd almost dclare it as a lifechanging moment, from this day forth I shall treat my arse tract with respect and care. Wink

Bizarrely the first time I heard of faecal vomit was in a documentary about the dangers of crash dieting!

mrskeithrichards · 05/11/2012 16:08

Oh whatever yes! Many a merry dance has been done during my morning smoke in the garden!

CaroleService · 05/11/2012 16:08

Ahem, OP: what do you think did the trick in the end? There are people here wanting to do a lap of honour, or be godmother.

TigerFeet · 05/11/2012 16:16

Grin mignonette

Glad to hear that a crash section wasn't required.

I'm glad you're enjoying your poomoon HELP

HipHopOpotomus · 05/11/2012 16:33

OP I'm so relieved happy for you - sat here at desk laughing & smiling (they think I'm mad).

Get some of that Senna tea in - then if you don't go during the day, take a cup at night. Don't let it get too desperate again.

BlueSuedeStiletto · 05/11/2012 16:37

Is anyone else strangely proud of the op and her great poochievement?

Well done OP. Well done.

WelshMaenad · 05/11/2012 17:07

Well, what the fuck am I going to do on tonight's night shift??? Bloody bloody hell.

Poo vomit is true, it happened to my friend's MIL. It was slightly more shit that normally spews out of her mouth, at any rate.

Goonatic · 05/11/2012 17:12

Oh phewie...... Thank fuck for that. First thing I did when home from work, kids can wait for their tea!!!!

butterfingerz · 05/11/2012 17:19

OP, you'll probably go the other way now, murphys law innit. Oh well you always know where to come if you need shit advice!

HecatePhosphorus · 05/11/2012 18:53

Well done. I have had everything crossed for you all day, Help. Grin

ThePathanKhansWitch · 05/11/2012 20:42

Congratulations!So happy for you.Thanks

BoffinMum · 05/11/2012 21:30

This should go into MN Classics, I think. It's been quite a shared experience. Grin
