What do your DC's call "passing wind"

Farts all the way in the Bluestocking household, although DS sometimes says "poo-poo-farts". I find all those other expressions very cringey too - especially windypops, FGS.

And we are from the Midlands too.

Farts here too. I can't help but laught when DD mutters ''fart'' despite not being able to say her own name.

I grew up calling them 'poo poo noise'' and I am not repeating that!

Did there used to be some sort of indigestion type remedy called windypops?

Tbh I would rather suffer than go into a chemist and ask for windypops!

dd1 calls them "puff puffs" have no idea why?

bottom burps, farts are the norm in the cali house.

Trump!!!Sometimes a smelly trump!!!

Between the age of 2 and 4, daughter used to call them 'poo noises' - an expression which she invented for herself (evidence of her preternaturally advanced language skills, methinks). Then she latched onto the word fart. That has now evolved to traf, the word my brother and I invented when my mother banned us from saying fart after we said it about 50 times in one day and she couldn't bear it any more.

Forgot to say that dear friend's granny used to say 'I think I heard a mouse squeak'.

Fart mostly, trump and poop sometimes. My mum used to call them 'fuffies' - which makes me cringe.

Ds2 (2.1) announced with a big grin the other day 'I trumpet!'

farts in our house too.

I grew up as a Midlands trumper too.

Farting, as a rule.

But we also say, after the passing of one's wind, "what was that noise" (btw this is directed to the DC) and they reply, sweetly, "my bottom".

"pop pops" when they were younger although now it's farting

A just turned 2yo DS1 says

"pump pardon me" then chuckles away to himself.

Am originally from very far north but fart seems just a bit coarse coming from LO's!

Ds1(3) doesn't call it anything but straight afterwards he laughs and says 'all aboard'
Quite embarrassing if we're out.

LOL Bubbaloo!! Don't be embarrassed...I am sure he has made anybody who heard really smile ...and that has got to be a good thing!!

fart
guff
trump
dropped your hat
laid a biscuit

DD just laughs and says "i smell"

When I was a kid we had to say "a bit of wind" to my parents .

Now call them farts, boffs, trumps and guffs mainly. I let rip loudly and always laugh. DH never does any and is a bit more prudish about them than I. He calls it "blowing off". I keep threatening to show our DS how to light them when he is older

Popping, or she just says pardon my bot bot. Our nanny introduced Pop/Popping and we thought it was rather more polite than a fart so have stuck with it and will do so as long as she does. But then, we don't say fart either, we say trump!

as children, we used to say popping, but I had never heard anyone else use the phrase.

We had a babysitter once who called it "pooping", had forgotten all about these!

Blow off as a child

Bottom burps for the children mostly.

DH says 'who made a smell?'

Sometimes fart but it is a bit coarse and I don't feel right when the children say it.

Snippety, reading your last post has just brought back a vision of some boy in one of my classes setting fire to his trousers, as he tried to light a fart/pop/trump/guff/etc

DS calls it a fart or a trump. DD (only nearly 2yrs) calls it a poo..burp, always preceded by oops!

it's a toot in our gaff
