Is it normal to fart during labor?

Yep.Totally normal

Yes—farting during labor is completely normal. The pressure and muscle work involved can push out gas, and it’s not something you need to feel embarrassed about.

Labor puts a lot of pressure on your bowels, and the muscles that help you push are close to the ones involved in passing gas. Between contractions, changing positions, and pushing, gas can come out without warning.
