Super embarrassed- I have farted loudly in front of DP

Ok, so maybe I know IABU

BUT I am mortified.

I've had some gynae issues recently and the side effect of the issues and meds has been a slight tummy upset

DP and I have recently started living together (about a couple months ago) and so far it's been smooth sailing.

Unfortunately, last night I farted in my sleep. I think it was loud too!!!Blush

I was semi- sleeping so kinda woke up and DP just giggled and patted my head.

We even had sex this morning- neither of us brought it up and he hasn't said anything:

But I'm still mortified and can't stop thinking about it.
He did ask me casually if I had left my phone on because a noise woke him up.

What if the noise was my fart?! How horrifying would that be! I farted loud enough to wake my bf up. Kill me now

I am teaching my kids to say "pardon me" when they fart or burp.

You should not have to apologise for a natural bodily function and you shouldn't hold it in (you will get a complex!) but you do need to acknowledge that it's you even if it's just to stop everyone around you from getting embarrassed and blaming the wrong person.

Just wish my DH would do the same thing!!!!

I fart all the time at home, so does DH. We laugh about it. I think it shows we are 100% relaxed with each other.

Pumps are the world's musical gift to us! Enjoy your tooting!

I lay there deciding whether to mention this 'early morning brass band'

This is what my mother refers to as the 'dawn chorus' Grin

This recent thread on commenting on farts made me roar with laughter!

MrsMushrooms · 12/05/2016 20:41

The very first night I stayed over at my DP's house, I woke us both up with the loudest fart I have ever farted. Completely out of nowhere! Fast asleep, no tummy upset, not normally windy... Anyway, I was mortified and if I'd have known the way home I'd have left immediately in the middle of the night! But I didn't so I stayed and he laughed his head off. He says it was hilarious but not something that bothered him, I maintain it was mortifying, but 5 years later it's not put any strain on the relationship haha! I know it's embarrassing but his behaviour afterwards shows that he clearly isn't arsed (hehe)

The first time I farted infront of my OH was during labour, I was crying with pain and embarrassment and couldn't stop apologising. We currently have a very windy smelly baby so Im able to blame him atm. I break wind infront of my partner all the time, he just doesn't know about it, I'm like a ninja guffer.

I held them in so well that when I was pregnant wIth DD and physically couldn't hold them (and they were evil ) he was astonished - he genuinely believed women didn't really fart!

I farted continuously throughout pregnancy. She's 4 now and I still have to let them go or get tummy ache.

He first farted in front of me ON MY TUMMY in his sleep. The one and only time I was the big spoon. We woke up and apologised.

My DH farts constantly, I don't even blink now.

I have to blink - his makes my eyes water.........

OP - have you not suffered the horror of the Fanny Fart during PIV yet?................
(makes DH arse hairs crack like a whip.....)

MarySmilingAndHerBrassieres · 12/05/2016 22:33

As a student I tried to impress my then boyfriend with what I assumed was erotic bendiness by putting my foot on my head and an errant fart rang out. I was mortified but he thought the wind was better than my supple limbs.

I do love how all the OHs are overjoyed by us farting. Smile

DisgraceToTheYChromosome · 13/05/2016 15:37

The very best fart was DD aged 4, visiting my Dad for the last time. He was pretty far gone, but still lucid and cheerful.
She trotted in, kissed him, said "hello Pop-pop" and released the most eye-stinging window rattler. Dad started laughing. He went from white to pink, pink to red and red to purple. He lay back utterly exhausted and murmured "I thought was going on the death certificate".

Took quite a bit off the sting off the last goodbye.

I farted in front of DP (now DH) after about a year. I had never done it in other LTR's. That's when I knew he was the one I would marry.

kmdwestyorks · 13/05/2016 17:31

So many farts happen in this house that you have to wait your turn if you want anyone to notice or comment!

There is something sweet about the first few coupledom farts and ensuing giggles that end with cuddles and then rampant sex.

DD thinks they tickle coming out and giggles for ages after.
