I’ve pooped while feeding my baby (bottle-fed, but you don’t take food away from a baby). She pooped at the same time too. What a cute pair we were!
Breastfeeding gives me bubble guts. This has happened to me more than once

Omg the gas since giving birth has been unreal! Constant loud farts from me and the baby too! I’ve even put mine in a baby carrier specifically to go to the bathroom. I’ve never been forced to go mid-feed, thankfully!
Oh yes! I’ve had to take mine into the bathroom with me and laid him on the rug when I was done. For the first couple of months, I had terrible gas while feeding. My poor baby and husband had to deal with my tooting up a storm in the middle of the night. I guess breastfeeding relaxes things… makes sense!
I’d either grab our baby pillow and put it outside the bathroom or put the baby in the crib and make a run for it. Sometimes it hits out of nowhere!
Omg, definitely! Doesn’t help that my little one takes FOREVER to feed. I try to give him a couple of minutes to ease the hunger before interrupting him.

Same!
This happened to me twice the other day!! I almost didn’t make it either time!
Eh, I can hold it for a really long time—usually hours—unless it’s diarrhea, which barely happens. I know that’s not healthy…
Omg, I thought this glider was designed for optimal bowel movements!
Yep, this has happened to me a few times!
This has happened to me too, several times, and my little love bug is NOT understanding at all.
I definitely finished a breastfeeding session while pooping once. It honestly wasn’t as weird as I thought it would be, but not a choice I make intentionally.
Imagine having IBS! I’ve been lucky so far, but I know my time will come.
You mean you guys don’t have field trips to the bathroom? I have a velcro baby who sits on my lap at least 3 to 4 times a week because I have IBS I sing songs or point out things to pass the time: “This is a toothbrush, this is a towel, and this is mommy wishing she could do this in peace!” LOL
Hahahaha! One time, it was so bad I actually went to the toilet with her nursing. Thankfully, I have a bidet, so I just clicked the button to clean my butt—no wiping needed.
Oh man. I bottle-feed, but I know this too well. The number of times I’ve suddenly had to dash to the bathroom before I shit my pants is crazy… Whether I’m feeding her or she’s sleeping on me, I end up having to stick her in her bassinet where she’ll inevitably wake up and I have to RUN to the toilet. I’m so glad to hear I’m not the only one I’ve had my gallbladder removed, so this is just my life
I’m pretty sure I once breastfed while sitting on the toilet.
I never have to poop until I’m in the middle of a feeding…
