Disgusting conversations that you never thought you'd have

Let me preface this with a deep seated belief that TMI is the start of the end of a relationship and the fact I've never passed wind infront of a significant other.

Been with DP for 2 years and over now (knew him for 8 years previous) and he's had a stomach bug ...
This mornings convo started with him telling me that he shat himself in bed next to me and all day we've been dreadfully descriptive about our bowel movements.

Got me thinking what's the grossest convos you've had???

I was once mortel pulled my tampax out i had obviously forgot to remove and was hurting me in my sleep and woke up ill off the drink with it in my hair to the OH awake sitting up in bed. He was ill laughing, we were on holiday and the rest of the day and night he would burst out laughing in front of the inlaws every time he looked at me but didn't tell them when they asked him what he was laughing at and no up until that point i had never farted in front of him

sadwidow lighten up, you don't have to share, or indeed read, if you don't want to, but the rest of us don't take life quite so seriously

Jesus, if I couldn't fart in front of my DH I'd never see him!!!

Also as an IBS sufferer, talk of my bowel movements is standard really. DH not so much.

Funnily enough, neither my IBS nor my bowel movements made conversation on our first date! And I'm sorry but anyone who says they don't hide things and try to put best face out there at the beginning is a liar ;-)

Yeah, I haven't passed gas in front of my husband, and when I have it's always been silent. The other week, one just came flying out really loud while I was right next to him (I blame childbirth). He couldn't stop laughing, kept going on about how this was the first time he ever heard me fart. He thought it was pretty fantastic and declared something along the lines of "I knew you were human!". You would have thought it was an early Christmas for him. Men are weird.

Pregnancy and labor brought up all sorts of gross and weird conversations. We've also had other gross conversations to get an opinion if something was a health problem or not before resorting to the internet and freaking ourselves out on webMD.

my boyfriend told me he loved me the first time I farted in front of him Hmm

MrsHaitch · 24/04/2014 21:23

I used to be really prudish about things like this, but since I farted during sex and we laughed it off, anything goes!

I think once your partner has shaved your fanny cos you're 9 months pg and can't see it yourself, then watched your 2nd degree tear be repaired,nothing's gonna put him off!!

We don't tend to have actual conversations about it though!!

Ha, this thread really made me chuckle!! I used to try and be feminine and delicate about my bodily functions. I have since given up, which is fortunate, as a few months back I was so ill that my husband held my hair while I retched so hard that I both weed and pood whilst vomiting.... That's love. Trumps up!

I remember in the early days of me and dh dating i went for a wee and when i got back he said 'wow, ive never heard a woman piss before' I was absolutely mortified! Grin

But slowly over time i have become more comfortable, ive only ever farted once in front of him when i was laughing, again mortified, but he's seen me throw up, and when i changed medication he got to hear daily about how i "still have the shits" haha

He's farted in front of me from day one, and happily tells me when he's going for a shit Hmm and after i had given birth to DS2 dh went back home to get some sleep and text me at 3am to tell me he's shit the bed because he had bad guts !

My DH had an anal fistula and before it developed into a fistula he had a large abcess on his perineum which he asked me to inspect to see if it had burst. That was fun.

But probably no more fun than it was for him watching me have a 3rd degree tear stitched up post childbirth especially as I had a large haematoma as well. Mind you I also think watching me express milk from my engorged J cup boobs with a double electric pump was something of a passion killer also.

But I have never seen him on the loo nor him me. (I do fart a lot though which he hates, blame that on the pelvic floor)
