Description
Pooing during labour happens to almost every woman who gives birth.
Yet 75% of us are scared of it, 16% would never discuss it with anyone, and only 8% openly talk about it regularly.
13% didn't even know it could happen – until it did.
Comedian and mum-of-four Katherine Ryan has teamed up with Andrex on their #MyLabourPoo campaign to break the silence. And honestly, we're here for it.
Because staying quiet doesn't just leave you unprepared. Kathryn says worrying about it during labour can actually affect how you push – and lead to more interventions.
'I was totally shrouded in the dark about how painful [the post-partum poo] can be... I hate that for so long we've existed in these shadows... the more we overshare and include that part, the safer women ultimately are.'
The more we talk, the safer we all are.
