To be upset that I just shat myself?

I've got a stomach bug and thought I needed to fart. I didn't. My partner thinks I'm silly for being upset. Aibu to feel a bit sad that my untarnished record of not crapping myself since I was a kid has been broken? And my favorite knickers are shitty.

I shudder to think what downhill from here could be.

The poo troll, if I remember rightly, said they were stuck in a toilet in a London train station having shat themselves with no clean clothes and poor mners were running up and down with clean knick knacks for her trying to find her.

So now the mere mention of following through causes great suspicion.

Don't have too much bum trust for a bit op. It will pass.

God everyone's jumped on you a little haven't they OP? Ridiculous, ignore them. Your post is no odder than anything else that's been shared on here, people have just decided to get their knickers in a twist for some reason...

It happens. Go treat yourself to some new nicks when you're better!

That's crazy! Nice of people to try to come to her rescue even if it was fake.

I'm intrigued by the mention of a poo troll?? Please fill me in Confused

It's not quite the same, but I had a baby 6 weeks ago and my pelvic floor ain't quite what it used to be. Then got a really bad chest infection, coughed really violently and peed myself. Sat on our cream sofa.

I had to fess up to DP as the sofa needed cleaning and I sobbed whilst admitting it. Was one of the most humiliating things I've done - admitting to DP I'd pissed myself.

Why would you willingly tell your partner about your follow through fart??

Really, it's not very ladylike; quite beastly.

TattyDevine · 08/02/2016 22:25

Sorry you had to experience that OP! We've all been there (well, I have Grin )

I hope you can soon fart with confidence. Give it 48 hours!

My pelvic floor is shit, I frequently pee myself a little when I sneeze and am not embarrassed to tell Dh.

SingingSamosa · 08/02/2016 22:28

boopsy and mademan

What delightful people you are, so kind and sympathetic Smile

AlwaysHopeful1 · 08/02/2016 22:29

Why on earth you even needed to share this I don't know. Yes you're sick, everyone gets sick but move on. Rank.

ForeverLivingMyArse · 08/02/2016 22:29

I though my pelvic floor was alright until this virus coughing thing.

I'd have a coughing fit then go ' ah for fuck sake' and dh would ask if I'd pissed myself again.

FuckyNell · 08/02/2016 22:30

Everyone farts, even ladies! You just can't tell when that may be a shart

Lj8893 · 08/02/2016 22:30

Ah poo is poo, we all do it. I have no idea why people get so upset about it.

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 08/02/2016 22:31

Did someone say shifty knickers?

Lj8893 · 08/02/2016 22:31

Haha Forever that sounds like me and my Dh!

dibdobs · 08/02/2016 22:36

Hodgepodge that must have been really horrible and I'd have been annoyed about soiling my best knickers too ! Hope you get well soon

MadeMan · 08/02/2016 22:37

"I have no idea why people get so upset about it."

Well, you can call me old fashioned if you like, but I'm not sure I want it to happen on my new cream DFS sofa. Rest assured that the OP will not be coming round for tea until she's feeling much better.

lovingmatleave · 08/02/2016 22:43

Yup you've every right to feel bad and. Can't believe the po(o) faced posters out there tonight who poo pooing your post.

If its any consolation I massively peed myself when throwing up. Hated the not being in control of your body feeling.

harrasseddotcom · 08/02/2016 22:43

op you have my sympathies. I went through the very same thing about 5 years ago whilst lying in bed dying with food poisoning. Whats worse is that dp had a night out and came back drunk and piddled in the wardrobe (a first for him caused by far too much excessive alcohol). I got slightly annoyed at him and got pooey bed thrown (not literally) in my face. Imo the two are not comparable. Also happened when i was in labour having a water birth. Id try and deny it as I wasnt aware of doing it but seen the midwife with the fishing net. Apparently everyone does it think she just said that to make me feel better.

WelshMoth · 08/02/2016 22:44

I had to finish with a boyfriend in college who proudly told me that he'd 'hit sock' when he squeezed out a sneaky one. We'd been for a vindaloo the night before.

Must agree that, while its not to everyone's sense of humour, we have an odd lot of judgy folk on this thread. Penis-beaker and all sorts are giggled at and recommended for classics, but s follow-through post has all sorts hoisting their bosom and tutting. Relax your sphincters you lot although not too much or you'll end up in same predicament as OP

Sparklingbrook · 08/02/2016 22:46

Penis Beaker was the least funny thread ever. Confused
