    I'm just amazed by the thong while in labour to be honest... Even the thoughts of it!

    I know it's gas! And the fact that the same thong ended up back into the hospital again! So funny!

    No, I am sort of with you there too.
    I found it vaguely amusing and that was it.

    I think I had one on when I was induced, although I was induced after going on for a routine appointment, so I wasn't prepared!

    Yeah is a laxative, they should give it to you in the hospital, ask for it if they not on the routine pain med rounds. Tbh I was fine in the end, the fear is worse!

    In my case it wasn't! :o I will definitely bring some of that stuff in my hospital bag if there is a next time.

    This article is just a rehash of things I have read on numerous forums and books (apart from the thong bit, that's a new one!) and it's not that funny IMO
