Pushing
Kari had had the feeling before, but each time the blessed event occurred the pain always shocked her.
The fullness, the pressure, the pain, sheer terrible pain.
Oh, she knew it all too well, she had been through this several times before, but each time seemed worse than the last. Another wave of nausea and pain poured through her like a raging river of fire. She pushed. She pushed and pushed but nothing seemed to happen. She could feel the slighted change down below, but still she wished it could just come out already.
She could not help yelping in discomfort.
“You doing alright, sweetie?” said her husband. She grunted something unintelligible.
Slowly, tiniest bit by tiniest bit, she felt it coming. She was nearly crying with a mixture of relief and pain as it came out. The giant crap that had been in her colon was released, and her battle versus constipation was won.
Yeah. Poop.
Sometimes I think we need to just put ex-lax in the water supply, cause I see so many people overly constipated. It is at times like that I am glad that pooping is one of my super-powers.
Either way, I’m not sure if pooping is nearly as gross as giving birth.
Have you ever seen anyone give birth? Which do you think is grosser?

I saw two births, my girls.
I’d say pooping doesn’t hold nearly the same amount of fascination.
So pooping is grosser.Especially the runs.
ahhhhh. I was just thinking I needed a poop fix from Slicy… and there you are!
But at least you get a beautiful baby and not a terrible turd.
i was traumatized in my ob/gyn rotation by the amount of poop involved in the birthing process. disgusting. the only thing i’ll say about my bowel function is that i am blessed. i don’t want to jinx myself, now, you know?
I knew you couldn’t resist the urge (yes, pun intended! hah!) to write about poop.
@storyslut - yeah, it’s been a while since I had a strictly poop-related entry, far too long I thought
@royal_diadem - Yeah. Giving birth is a nasty process. Anyone who talks about the beauty of childbirth is either insane or has never really seen it.
@Belegost_the_Naugrim - yeah… it’s been too long since a good poop entry. I was constipated without getting it out… now I feel MUCH better.
