Pooping During Labor: Snooki Asks Kelly Ripa What Every Mom Wants to Know (VIDEO)

Snooki Kelly Ripa

It's no secret that she completely lacks any sort of a filter (my kinda girl), and that's why it really shouldn't come as a huge shock that Snooki came right out and asked Kelly Ripa whether she pooped on the table while delivering her babies. (Oh yes, she went there!)

She appeared on Live! With Kelly this past Tuesday, and while sitting on the stage with JWoww, Kelly, and Josh Groban, Snooki looked right at Ripa and said, "Did you poop?"

Kelly's answer was, of course, priceless, as she said, "No, I have never pooped ever." (Um, sure Kelly.)

More from The Stir: Don't Let Snooki's Stretch Marks Happen to You!

National television may not have been the most appropriate place for Snooki to talk about crapping yourself while trying to push out your baby, but I'm willing to bet that pretty much every woman who has ever been about to give birth has wondered the very same thing. I sure did.

I can remember being terrified of pooping on the table during my son's delivery, and if I recall, I think I even asked my doctor about it. She of course said it was perfectly natural and not to worry if it did happen, but I was still mortified by the thought.

For the record, I managed to make it through my delivery poop-free; however, I did pass an embarrassingly insane amount of very loud gas immediately after receiving my epidural from the most gorgeous hunk of an anesthesiologist ever. (I still turn red every time I think about it.) And while I'm sure he and the nurses thought nothing of it, I'm pretty sure I was scarred for life in that moment.

You can see Snooki put Kelly on the spot in this video clip. I have to admit, I'm kinda surprised that Kelly didn't laugh the whole thing off and have a little more fun with her answer. (I sure would have!)

 

Are you worried about pooping on the table?

    i was terrified of pooping during labor lol i asked my dr too & she said the same thing, it was perfectly natural. I already had my epidural & told my nurse i needed to go to the bathroom. She said "no honey, youre fully dilated, that baby is ready to come" lol i made it through without my fears happening though :)

    My l&d nurse told me that everyone does it, they just don't let them know it.  She said they just kind of clean it up as it comes out and there is enough going on that no one notices.

    I totally did.
    The only reason I knew was that the nurse had insisted on setting up the mirror so I could see what was happening.
    I told her I didn't want it, but she instead. About two seconds later, poop. Haha I looked at my mom and said, "nope I'm not doing this."
    Hahaha sooo embarrassing. I got over it, and I am glad I had the mirror to see. I recommend using it! Just don't get super freaked and try to back out when you poop. Haha

    I'm an L&D nurse and I had a young patient and that was her biggest fear. She had been pushing for 2 hrs and everytime she pushed she went and I made it "disappear" without her knowing. The doctor walked in to evaluate pushing and exclaimed, "everytime you push you are moving your bowels so you are definitely pushing in th right place.". She was mortified and I felt defeated. We laughed about it after.

    I was worried about it when I went in to have my son. My nurse was awesome and pretty much made me feel better and then I didn't worry so much. My son, however, pooped suing delivery so I was told that I was covered in poop but it wasn't mine. But really at the time I just wanted him out and didn't care if poop came too. Two hours of pushing is exhausting!

    I was so anxious about it leading up to delivery and then when the time came, I was in so much motherf*ing pain I couldn't care less what happened. I don't know if I did or not.
