An experience to remember: lactulose!

I also wanted to share an example of a personal experience, since I’m hoping to share a lot more on here if I can gather some supporters 💙

last year I had a phase of eating lots of toasted bread rolls which made me really constipated fir some reason - not sure why, it’s not a problem I have that often! But it had been about 9 days since I’d last been able to go properly and I was seriously uncomfortable and incredibly gassy so I decided to take some lactulose to get things moving and I kept a diary of everything during that day which I’m happy to share with you now! Unedited (except for typos) this is my raw account of everything leading up to the final explosive result!

10:40am - stupidly ate more rolls - bread blockage in my stomach making me feel like I have indigestion - constant burping

10:50 - drank water

10:55 - Bloated - feels like the bread is swelling like a sponge inside me!!

11:00 - took a full dose of lactulose and a litre of water 

11:15 - Tummy feels warm inside, bloated. Lots of gas, occasional sloshy hiccups that make all the liquid move inside me, so uncomfortably!

11.21: I can feel my tummy just... full of contents. Have just drunk a can of coke too,  lots more burping, things are starting to bubble - feeling round and swollen and excited

11.45 - things are quiet so far. Thirsty despite the ocean inside me.  Drank another can of coke

12:21 - first signs of a cramp, a sharp twinge just beneath my left rib cage.  Bladder is very full!!!

13:09 - mhmm, so far nothing else has happened. Really surprised, my whole system is usually bubbling and churning by now

13.31 - I have the mildest feeling of discomfort/expanding around my ribs but honestly nothing else and that could be because I’m focusing on it! I’m giving my gut another 5 minutes and then taking a second dose... god help my stomach!

13:40 - so I took the second dose and chased it down with coke. I have this feeling of impending doom!

13: 58 - Luce gave me a firm belly massage, kneeling my gut with her fist and teased me, saying she was going to get things moving. In the few minutes that have followed I’ve started to get little tingly bubble sensations...

14:07 - I think I’m feeling bloated, in my upper stomach bizarrely. I tapped my tummy experimentally and it’s started to develop a slightly hollow sound so I think I’m starting to develop wind.

14:15: - finally something’s on the move! I downed some more liquid and about two minutes later I felt a sudden squeezing pressure high up in my tummy which felt quite severe and forceful, and a couple more followed. Straight after I felt something move inside me in the middle of the left side of my tummy and again on the other side while I was writing this! Now I am getting sharp little cramps that only last a second or two through my stomach in general and there’s a slight twitching at the rear. Feels like there might be a fart brewing.

14:17 - update: pretty sure there is a fart brewing. I felt a big bubble heading downwards!

14:26 - got a lot of flattery bubbles going on around the bottom of my rib cage. They kind of tickle me inside. Every now and then I feel subtle little shifts, they’re building.... oh no, what have I done? I can feel the gas shifting towards my backside. I’ve been burping loads as well, ever since I ate the bread!

14:35 - occasional creeping discomfort on both sides of my belly and I’m definitely feeling swollen. I look it too, my belly is stuck right out in my lap, and it’s starting to feel hard to the touch instead of soft and squishy! I can feel air around my butt and could probably push it out now but I kind of want to keep it all inside me for a while.

14:37 - having said that an urgent need to fart came over me, the force of the gas was incredible!!! I didn’t stand a chance against it, it forced its way out and I can feel more building inside me! I could definitely fart again but I’m going to try holding it until it forces it’s way out again! It felt like it was going to stink but weirdly had no scent despite feeling hot.

14:41 - a small fart bubbled out my bottom without me even knowing it was going to happen! I’ve started to get hunger pangs, just to complicate matters. Lucy is teasing me about what might happen if I ate a meal right now. ‘What if it’s flushed straight through?’ 

14:46 - I have so much gas inside me but I won the war with a big bubble that wanted out - at least for now!

14:51: still pretty quiet although there is a very insistent fart building at the back door. Luce told me my belly just creaked.... oh dear, that doesn’t sound good! I had headphones on and didn’t hear it, I didn’t actually feel it either, although I can feel bubbles moving occasionally still. That fart is trying to escape again, it’s so temping to just let it blast out...

15:03 - things are stepping up. Pleasant discomfort on both sides of my tummy, I think my intestines are filling with air now, bubbling away

15:06 - I’m enjoying the bucking of the gas and slipped in a plug to take away the temptation of giving in to a building fart. 

15:42 - very quiet period - for ages my tummy would still bubble occasionally especially if I manipulated it with my hands or drank some coke but it wasn’t moving anything, then a second ago I had a really intensely  painful pressure sensation in my lower abdomen and as it reached an almost unbearable point I felt something give way and a sense of relief wash over me as I felt a HUGE bubble shoot down where it’s exit was blocked - hard luck! now I can feel it trapped in there, Bubbling about! My stomach is so round right now, it’s visibly swollen and I can’t stop patting it. It kinda sounds like a balloon or a beach ball whe I tap it!

15:47 - loads of bubbling at the back, I could feel the gas building up really badly and it tried to force its way past the plug really violently! I then had that horrible, painful sensation of the bubble heading back up into my gut with a revolting gurgle, except that one tiny bubble actually forced its way out to my huge embarrassment and made its presence known with a pop noise! My tummy is grumbling with pockets of gas

15:56 - the gas built and built until the temptation was too great and I just wanted to see how much air I would expel in that first really big fart. Oh my god, I forced it out and pushed right past my plug, a massive explosion of gurgly gas that bubbled it’s way out of me in about six seconds! Immediately I could feel pressure releasing and other bubbles moving inside of me... I let out another few bubbling bottom burps, none of them had a smell to them, and I got back to my work with a red face.

16:04 - the gasses built very suddenly and without thinking I pushed them out! Bam, a huge bubbly fart exploded and stung around my hole! Not long after, I heard my first proper belly noise - finally! It’s about time! Usually I’m making orchestral noises after the first hour or so!

16:16 - massive violent bubble rampage from the right side of my tummy to the left - it made a noise a but like an animal running??

16:51 - I thought my digestive system had given up, then a massive gush of gas tore through me, and I had to force it out in several gassy blasts, each one louder and hotter than the last. The last one smelled a little so I think I’m getting closer! There are little aches and  cramps all through my tummy and I feel things popping inside me

17:00 - ohhh it’s getting closer alright, I had a massive bubbly shift inside of me that was extremely audible and Luce heard the whole thing! Then a massive amount of gas moved downwards, I swear I’ve never had this much gas from it before, and I let out one extremely long, dirty fart. It just kept coming and coming, every time I thought it was over more bubbles ran to the escape hatch! Now my tummy is finally percolating in a way that makes me feel like things are moving!

17:12 - a weird bubble rumbled under my rib cage and then I felt gas at my ass lol but I didn’t dare let this one out . It gurgled back up inside me in the most humiliating fashion possible. there was no hiding what that was. 

17:32 - after burping a bunch I had a roar like thunder from my stomach and I could feel it was all gas, so much gas!! It kind of felt like an earthquake and i realised every time I shifted my torso or moved my stomach muscles I could make the gas roll around inside my intestines, making that awful sound again which Luce teased me about mercilessly!

17.38 - my stomach made a noise like furniture being dragged across the floor or massive bubbles rising under water! Lucy demanded to know what the noise was and my butthole gurgled!! I let out five massive trumpeting blasts, each one smellier than the last, and heard loads of gurgling inside my gut which is feeling more unsettled by the second! She told me off for having so much gas and my face reddened, a situation that only worsened when I burped and my stomach took the opportunity to rearrange things inside itself, in the noisiest fashion ever

17:49 - Lucy just started playing with my tummy which made bubbles start to move again. I feel like I need to go to the toilet now but I’m trying to hold on as long as I can, I’m loving the feeling of things starting to move on through me, gurgling along the way!!

17:51 - hunger rumbles in my tummy... but if I eat, will it push everything out?

17:52 - a desperate clench as my bowels try to move, the discomfort fades and the urgency passes but it will be like that every few minutes from now on and my tummy is grumbling something shocking 

17:54 - my tummy is howling!  Hunger and wind, and then I farted into the bed :X

17:56 - the bed just vibrated and I looks up in shock...  Luce looked smug and said,  ‘just showing you how it’s done‘ !!!!! Oh my god!!

17:59 - Lucy pressed into my gut and pushed a whole lot of air around my tubes. She felt them gurgle violently beneath her hand and the wide-eyed look on her face was amazing. She continued to pummel my tummy for a few moments before it made another terrible growl and she withdrew her hand. ”why does your stomach feel like a balloon?!!” she demanded, “it’s so inflated,  it feels all rubbery inoise you! I’m afraid to press any more in case you burst!” I have never been so ashamed or so turned on as my guts growled in response and I felt my stomach stretching more. I have never had this much wind inside me that wasn’t from  inflating or swallowing air and my skin feels taut and stretched

18:09 spent some time examining my stomach, poking it, swaying my hips, bending as much as I can (not far!) and felt all the gassses moving and churning. I have never had this much gas in my life and I want this moment to last forever! I have never felt myself so inflated, my stomach is more swollen than I have ever seen and I can feel all the movement inside me. This is making me want to get fatter and fatter to feel this big all the time! also getting hunger growls again, which sound magnified like an echo cave by all the air inside me!!!

18:15 - Lucy pressed her fists into my stomach and it let out a noise that sounded like a fart. She told me there‘s no reason a digestive system should be making noises like that!

!8:16 - ohhh that did it.... panic stations!!

.........and I have more to share with patrons in the future 😊
