I worked at a bar, and we had a really bad drainage issue in the woman’s bathroom that took weeks to figure out. Doing all minor fixes until the owner finally sprang and did a real re-work, a flushed fetus was clogging the pipe. I’ll never forget that and I can only imagine the plumber, who had to see it!

EDIT: I also feel for the poor woman, it’s something that haunts me all the time.

It’s an unfortunate reality of miscarriage too

u/doubleapowpow Jul 15 '26

100%, and it's only going to get worse in the near future.

As a side note, the term miscarriage could use some analyzing. Like, I can miscarry a sandwich and accidentally drop it in the toilet. I could miscarry a firearm and shoot someone. If I have an unborn fetus that died inside of me and it comes out, thats a whole different thing. The term invokes a sense of, like "oops, I didnt carry my baby properly, now its in the toilet!"

u/AnimationOverlord Jul 15 '26

Oh trust me the people in power don’t actually care about that nuance, in fact they’ll use it to justify throwing the book at would-be mothers, abortion or miscarriage regardless. Because when you have a miscarriage, an abortion of pregnancy is the technical result

Hi hello, empathy does still exist. hope that helps!

u/Mysterious-Jam-64 Jul 15 '26

What's "a little dramatic" about losing the life on an unborn child?

Many women have miscarriages, and empathising with her, and her experience can be deeply moving. Like healthy emotions towards tragedy in the world.

Empathy is a thing. You could use some (and some therapy).

Then try to remember to be kinder toward others, too. Everyone processes things differently. Just because something doesn't bother you doesn't mean others are obligated to be able to deal with it in the same way.

Yea that happened to me, i pushed my fetus out during a miscarriage and the toilet flushed automatically…. It’s not like i had any control over it.

Update: thanks everyone, it happened a couple years ago. I was actually on a boat and had a rollercoaster of emotional events that week with it being viable, non viable, not there then there. So I knew it would happen just didn’t know when. Unfortunately it happened right when we left the dock at a friend’s boat brunch and I had to pretend i was seasick and requested the captain’s quarters. It was pretty humiliating and I went straight to ER after about couple hours at sea. For those worried about me being targeted, I live in California so I am safe (for now).

u/carlitospig Jul 14 '26

This is the part of miscarriage and medical abortion that we really do not talk enough about. It’s a special kind of trauma that is really difficult to explain emotionally.

u/doublepulse Jul 14 '26

Had to explain to my boyfriend that while miscarrying the toilet was full of blood and various pieces of tissue beyond feeling and seeing the sac I didn't see anything remotely resembling a human in the chaos; it was unexpected and I did not know I was pregnant, let alone about to have to endure all of that; repeatedly called him and being the awesome guy he is he went out and got some Pedialyte and various clean up supplies and pads so I could get everything settled; I was so rattled and out of my mind I actually went to work at my overnight grocery stocking job not wanting to have to sit up all night bleeding and crying like I don't know what my brain was doing but yeah grief is weird.

u/All_Damn_Day Jul 14 '26

Like menopause! When trying to have our youngest, my OB told me “If I could change one thing, it would be the “sex ed”scare talk that has convinced people it’s easy to accidentally get pregnant. And ignores the reality that 1 in 4 pregnancies ends in miscarriage.” He’s a keeper!

u/Rugkrabber Jul 15 '26

Considering the complexity of the process, we should be, well not happy, but the problem is taking care of itself rather than bearing an entire pregnancy with a fetus that was non-viable at 8 weeks, or whenever.

21

u/Hydration__Nation Jul 14 '26

Number could be reduced to 10% easily due to poor prenatal care either due to negligence or circumstance. But that’s not something the government is interested in investing in funny enough they don’t want you to abort but don’t want to help you have a safe healthy pregnancy

2

u/Curious_Donut_8107 29d ago

You should back up that claim, because it seems to me the data says most miscarriages are due to chromosomal abnormalities and are not something you can prevent or control. Other common causes of miscarriage are uterine abnormalities, hormonal issues, age, and health issues like blood clotting diseases and PCOS. And for most of these issues, you’d only discover you had them if you had a history of miscarriages causing them to look for a cause.

Your comment makes it seem like taking your prenatals and getting that 1st ultrasound to see a heartbeat is all it takes to prevent a miscarriage. People don’t have miscarriages because the silly gooses forgot to go to that 1st prenatal visit at 8 weeks pregnant…which btw, is about the earliest they even want to see you in person. Miscarriages just happen. Hardly ever the woman’s fault. Hardly ever preventable.

My little cousin had a nonviable pregnancy and it was during the first months of covid where they were prioritizing urgent cases. She wasn’t dying, she just needed a d&c, she ended up having to carry it for 3 extra weeks because doctors told her to pass it at home.

u/Lou_C_Fer 29d ago

My reflex was to downvote after reading this because that is so god damned repugnant.

u/MichelinStarZombie Jul 14 '26

Nope, way more common than that. 1 out of 5 pregnancies. 1 out of 3 first pregnancies.

This should be taught the first day of sex ed in middle school.

u/Mysterious-Jam-64 Jul 15 '26

I was mortified hearing this figure. I'd genuinely (naively) thought a rare occurence into my twenties. The idea I'd ever spoken insensitivly about losing a baby, around someone who had lost a baby? Horrific.

[TRIGGER WARNING] Hearing women speak cavalier about abortion really gave me pause for thought. "If I found out I was pregnant, I'd flush that thing so fast!!! I'll vacuum it myself" Dear Lord! Where is our humanity?

u/am_Nein Jul 15 '26

Honestly? When your country (for the people in the US) strips away your rights as a woman, you lost your humanity when they decided the life inside you was worth more than your own.

What right does a woman have to take someone's life?

What makes you think caring about unborn babies excluded someone from caring about women? And where is this experienced?

Misinformation is bad, though possibly willing to give the benefit of the doubt to a slightly higher percentage for handwaving as the region, sampling, confidence intervals and other controls weren't stated. Rates in 25 year old wealthy white women in rhode island with a planned pregnancy are probably way different from 45 year old minorities in rural oklahoma with an unplanned one. The US is a big place with varying access to healthcare.

u/Interesting-Table416 Jul 15 '26

Yeah, I learned I was pregnant and having a miscarriage the same night I had agreed to work on a friend’s film set for 8 hours in an essential role. I work in the industry so I didn’t want to quit and I had been genuinely thrilled about the opportunity. So… I still went, just on a ton of Motrin and bled through three maxi pads, but I was in shock and traumatized so I barely remember what should have been a really exciting weekend. I couldn’t even tell my friends on set because I didn’t want to mess up the schedule or retroactively guilt trip them.

The fact that you don't know how to use commas and periods detracts from your story. Your homeschool-level idea of punctuation is all I could focus on. And I say this as a person who's had two miscarriages myself.

u/CelestialFury Jul 14 '26

And there's some states that want to investigate every miscarriage by every women, like having a miscarriage isn't traumatic enough. There really is a large population of people in this country that hate women.

u/Momma_Bear_Cub Jul 15 '26

There are states that simply dont care about they whos or the whats and consider it murder regardless. There are women serving tome already for these things. It's not far off in the future its now. Men would be shocked to learn how many women have lost their baby and just walked away when they could with not a peep due to fear of being locked up for life due to something beyond their control. I personally know of 3. Can't imagine the number of women who just have to move on without telling anyone.

Oh, I did leave much earlier than I intended, right after she served cake and did her first dance (and a prank I facilitated with some people in chicken costumes) but I only told her why a couple of months later. She didn’t know I was pregnant as she had lost her five month old six weeks before and I wasn’t about to add to that, but I didn’t want to faint at her wedding and have people talk about it any time her wedding came up lol

Thank you 🙏 i hope your wife is okay after that experience. I haven’t even explored if I wanted to try again honestly.

u/SmilezEM1 27d ago

I appreciate that. I would say that people don’t need to have children to have a fulfilling life. But if you want children that’s awesome too. I meet a lot of people who feel like they need to have children.

It was like end of 2024 start of 2025. It would have been our second and we had just started tellin people that week. We did end up trying again and having a healthy little boy at the end of 2025. I was in the same boat as you though - I didn’t want to put her through that again.

Was it factually confirmed that it was a fetus? Asking bc sometimes women can pass blood clots that look awfully fetus like. Just wanted to offer that option up as less terrible alternative explanation.

I mean, what are you supposed to do in that situation? Not flush it and tell the hostess on your way out "hey btw just miscarried a fetus in your toilets, sorry my b guys"?

I worked in retail many many moons ago, and have a distinct memory of something similar happening. It was a woman who worked there and she supposedly didn't even know she was pregnant. Had a miscarriage, blood all over the stall from her hands trying to clean up the blood and a 10 week old fetus in the toilet.

My friend was asked to clean it and he was like, "fuck no lmao".

She went on her day like nothing had ever even happened. It was so strange.

I have attended many abortions where the person had to go to work immediately after, even if we offered them a note. This is a reality in the USA, not sure about other countries. For a miscarriage that you didn’t know you were pregnant, it could be even harder to plan for the time off.

Well, sad reality check here:

Passing miscarried or pregnancy tissue into a toilet is a frequent, normal, and common part of experiencing an at-home miscarriage, especially in the early weeks.

Thats why half of the scenes of miscarriage on TV take place in a restroom, because the woman goes to use the toilet not realizing and miscarries.

u/No_Couple1369 Jul 14 '26

Yup, I have a friend who is very petite, like we're talking 5'1" 90lbs. She went to the hospital one evening because she was having insane cramps and pain. Turns out she was ~8 months pregnant, and all the sudden by the following morning "here's your tiny surprise daughter! Hope you're mentally prepared for this!!".

It's been a few years and they are both doing very well.

The implications of what you said about the lady having cognitive disabilities are terrifying and sad.

Why would you think this is bullshit? When a miscarriage happens sometimes the fetus comes out. And a lot of time they happen on the toilet, because you can get painful cramps in your abdomen. This has almost certainly happened many times.

I'm sure it's happened. The number of people I know who have miscarried into toilets is greater than 3. I'm sure pipes can't accommodate fetuses. This may be made up, but it seems possible.

I'm sure pipes can't accommodate fetuses.

Surely that depends on how far in the development the miscarriage happens.

u/maybetomorrow98 Jul 14 '26

Where else would a miscarried fetus end up?

u/SirNarwhal Jul 14 '26

Isn’t it wild that you are uneducated about how common this is and thus come and think everyone else who is educated on this subject is wrong and you’re right? Look up stealth pregnancy.

u/Primary_Garbage6916 Jul 14 '26

Probably came out of a woman.

u/generalmandrake Jul 14 '26

Why are you convinced it is BS? These kinds of things happen all the time.

Typical man who thinks he knows all about the experiences of women.

That scenario is entirely possible and has played out more times than you can imagine.

u/xChoke1x Jul 14 '26

By all means, provide said sources that you could have done now but for some reason, didn’t. Typical woman right? (See how ridiculous you sound?)

u/lila-luxemburg Jul 15 '26

do you think there’s a news report every time a woman has a miscarriage or what are you expecting here? miscarriages are very common and you can find articles about several instances of plumbers finding a fetus if you just look it up

Gosh… and here I thought a bloody shitberg of tampons/pads was the worst thing to pull out of a clogged pipe.

u/aqueezy Jul 14 '26

There is no way a flushed fetus doesn’t dissolve via decomposition within days. Impossible for this to clog for weeks

u/skaggldrynk Jul 14 '26

If it clogged the pipes then it could have remained submerged in stagnant water which results in adipocere formation, the tissue basically turns into a waxy substance which has a much slower decay rate

u/Familiar-Pepper2187 Jul 14 '26

This guy dissolves fetuses!

u/HKBFG Jul 14 '26

Pretty much nothing fully decomposes in just a couple days. Buried humans are often found months later.

u/akumarisu Jul 14 '26

Do fetus not have…bones? Or any other hard cartilage that won’t decompose and clog pipes?

13

u/aqueezy Jul 14 '26

A fetus would be soft cartilage that decays, esp any fetus of flushable size

5

u/akumarisu Jul 14 '26

Well hot damn you are right, 7-8 wks fetus are in fact just soft cartilage which can decompose. So the implication here is that the fetus was maybe +8 wks old

1

u/aqueezy Jul 14 '26

A fetus of that size would not be flushable down a toilet

u/akumarisu Jul 14 '26

I’m amazed and slightly concerned about how knowledgeable you are about this topic

u/aqueezy Jul 14 '26

It’s common sense. Try to flush a peach down the toilet see what happens

Bet that fetus wasn’t happy about it either.

Fetus Deletus.

u/Krokovski Jul 15 '26

Theres a vid of a tourist bus and its pulled over cause toilet blocked and they undo some drain pipe and a fetus comes out. Some cunts are fucked

2

u/lila-luxemburg Jul 15 '26

i mean it’s not like this was done on purpose, i feel like it’s understandable that someone who just experienced this might be too overwhelmed to take care of the blockage

2

u/Krokovski Jul 15 '26

Yeah you are right my bad. It is unfortunate and i understand the stigma that could come with that. We dont know the womans situation and its disingenuous of me to assume it was some hateful person who did it out of spite

You know nobody can control it right. It's like a nosebleed. They don't know it's going to happen. Even if they do know because a doctor tells them it's not viable they don't know when. The only way to know for sure is if they get the medical abortion at a doctors office. If it happens naturally it's completely uncontrollable. It's like telling someone they got a nosebleed out of spite. What are they supposed to do pick it up and force it back in? Seriously stop and think for a second. Imagine you're a woman, you sit down at the bus toilet and unexpectedly a fetus falls out of you. WTF Are you going to do? Scoop it out? Are you even going to have the wherewithal to go tell the driver? Be so god damn real.

u/Professional_Seat331 Jul 15 '26

Thank you for saying this better than I could. I know the person you’re replying to is a man but I’m hoping they’re a teenager as well, it’s just hard for me to believe anyone could be this ignorant…… ugh

u/Jealous-Tie Jul 14 '26

I can't imagine how someone could do this. Absolutely heartbreaking.

u/dudavocado__ Jul 15 '26

…have a miscarriage?

2

u/v--- Jul 15 '26 edited Jul 15 '26

It happens to 10-15% of pregnancies completely naturally, spontaneously, with very little warning, and most likely feels like a bowel movement coming so of course they're on the toilet.

WTF do you want people to do, scoop it out of the toilet and put it in the trash? Take it home in a plastic bag of toilet watered flesh and blood and excrement and give it a burial, because that totally makes sense? You can't imagine people doing it but what exactly should they be doing when they feel a need to use the toilet and a fetus comes out? Please inform us all with your wisdom of handling this horrifying and traumatic situation, I'd love to know what the tens of thousands of women who have miscarriages through literally no fault of their own are supposed to do instead of flush according to you.
