Memories to cherish forever
Last night I did something in front of my husband that I've never done before in the almost 10 years we've been together.
I peed.
I was not, however, sitting on a toilet at the time.
Let me explain.
I don't go to the bathroom in front of anyone. Not even my own mother.
Last night I was laying on the couch and the husband and I were laughing.
I started laughing so hard that a little pee came out. Which only made me laugh harder. Which made more pee come out.
For the next few minutes I was stuck in a vicious cycle of laughing, and peeing, and gasping for air.
In between gasps of air I managed to choke out "I'm peeing on myself!!!"
This made my husband laugh so hard that he fell on the floor.
A couple of minutes later, with tears streaming down my face, I managed to compose myself.
That's when I realized I had soaked through my underwear onto my pajama pants. A couple of more teaspoons, and I would have officially peed on the couch.
I ran to the bathroom still laughing.
I came out and showed my husband the wet spot on my pajamas, shaking my head in disbelief.
"Well, now you can't say you haven't peed in front of me."
Here's hoping I never poop on the couch.

You think about that next time Dexter or Mookie tinkle someplace they shouldn't!

Heehee, the pooping...ahh yes. I shall not insert comment about birth here.
I also peed for the first time in front of my husband while pregnant. But mine was that I was vomiting so much that I peed myself.

Oh, honey, that's nothin'. When I was pregnant I actually ended up in the HOSPITAL because I didn't know if my water had broke, or if I just peed on myself. (I just peed. But in my defense, Sophie arrived only a few weeks later, a month before her due date).

Dude, that's funny. My hubs peed in a dream one night. Dreamed he was peeing and just went. NICE.
He so does not have the squinched up bladder excuse.

Brace yourself Torrie, after having a baby you lose a lot of your modesty. Oh yeh, and your child WILL follow you to the bathroom.
good times!

OMG! What, pray tell, made you laugh so hard??

My fiance pees while I am around all the time. In the toilet, of course. He doesn't understand that that is just taboo. And when I shut the door while peeing? He's like "I see you naked all the time! What's the difference!" Um, HUGE difference! Peeing is not to be shared. With anyone!
That is pretty funny you peed yourself. Ah, the wonders of pregnancy.

Ahh, bodily fluids, come to love them, it only gets worse/better; my laptop here and the floor around it are now covered in breast milk splashes (thank god for hard wood floors!)

At least you handled it well. My girlfriend did something similar a few months ago and was so embarrassed she wouldn't talk to me for two days.
Dig the blog, btw.
