Lol you'll be fine hun I managed to clear everything out in the first stage of my induction with DD1, but DD2 was a spontaneous labour and I was again really prone to constipation, I thought I'd got it all out of my system when I went into labour but nope - poor DH had to clean up after me while the midwife was out of the room lol We laugh about it now, but I still get a bit embarrassed... at the time I didn't give a rats' because there was a freaking baby stuck in my vag and I needed to get it OUT NOW lol, I was like, 'Oop, get some paper towels, please' but other than that, I didn't care.
It all seems so scary before you go through it, but then when you're actually doing it, the embarrassment factor is the furthest thing from your mind! I was pacing around the labour suite naked from the waist down, the midwife had to offer me a gown as it was 4am and she worried that someone outside might see into the well-lit room and get an eyeful lol I'm usually very prudish about my naked body but had zero qualms about my backside hanging out in front of her during labour... I just wanted to meet my baby!
