.I thought my stomach was in my tummy.

What has made you embarrassed?

I don't think anyone who's left primary school should use the word "tummy" it's very babyish reminds me of those strange fully fledged adults who still call their parents mummy and daddy.

We shouldn't be embarrassed about farting around our other half, mine has asked me to kindy refrain from doing so in his precious car, I don't know why, it's as good a place as anyblush We were created to expel air or silently suffer sad looking at all that inner tubing (intestines) it has to come out somewhere otherwise heaven forbid surely we would combust shock

I do confess to not doing it around my children or heaven forbid grandchildren, although they do it around me accompanied by giggling description of the act. Still at the lavatory stage grin

Actually, it's usually DD who is more embarrassed than I am. I am learning to live with it.

jinglbellsfrocks Sat 03-Sept-16 11:52:31

My embarrassing moments inevitablly revolve around farting. Loud and long. #helpless

Err... I think she might have meant 'below'. (Which is accurate) Difficult interpretation that. hmm #sarcasm

Maybe!

Before I roastchicken I'd like to suggest, kindly, to you obi that if your stomach is in fact under your 'left boob' you are in seriously need of a decent bra hmm

Thanks for starting this off.

Am about to start a full day's decorating and this has given me such a laugh.

I didn't do well at Biology at school and so over the years have been surprised, and deeply embarrased, by my ignorance !

haha!

Anya Sat 03-Sept-16 08:13:21

I think you could fill this thread all by yourself obi wink

obieone Sat 03-Sept-16 08:08:22

I may wish I hadn't started it!
I expected others to say their embarrassing moments if they wanted to, though I couldnt remember if that had been done before.

DaphneBroon Sat 03-Sept-16 07:59:52

Is this thread for real? confused

Surely, as long as your heart is in the right place, it really doesn't matter if you know where the other bits are, or what they are called - unless of course you are a paramedic/doctor/nurse.

I think the arrow for the heart in Daphne's picture is not very accurate

In this picture the heart is in a different place shock

obieone Sat 03-Sept-16 06:48:52

Nelliemoser, I have not had bowel surgery.

Jalima Fri 02-Sept-16 23:55:36

Oh, I thought the kidneys were a bit lower down than that
blush

I will stand behind obieone in the duh corner. grin

DaphneB - a mirror image! That woman is in need of a burkha!

Nelliemoser Fri 02-Sept-16 23:08:57

obieone That last post was for you.

DaphneBroon Fri 02-Sept-16 23:08:27

This is a scary looking lady, but her heart is in the right place (see what I did there?)

Nelliemoser Fri 02-Sept-16 23:07:48

And you have had bowel surgery. Did they not explain where the different organs were.
