Kitz, yes it happens and it happened to me big time. But like the others have said, it's all part of it and I honestly didn't find it embarrassing at all at the time. There are just so many other more important things going on. I do remember that my dear ob very gently and tactfully suggested that I might like to put my socks in with the bag of stuff that was going to be chucked out. They weren't my favourite socks so it sounded like a good idea to me
