Hi

Firstly unsure if this has been posted in the wrong place.

(Will be seeing a Dr soon as I'm out of iso)

I need help with incontinence.
I've always had a weak ish bladder, in the sense of always needing to go.

I've had one baby by c section. So not even a vaginal birth. 7 years ago.

Why am I always leaking urine?
Sneezing, coughing does it.
(Currently have covid so the cough is making it worse) today alone I've been through 5 tena pads. And currently using 2 doubled up. Mortifying.

I also do drink A LOT of fizzy drinks. A little overweight. Not by an enormous amount.

I've heard that this can make it worse. I want to know if people have tried losing weight and giving up the fizz has helped.

Just for added info

1 child, c section.
Non smoker for 8 years

Almost 38
Barely touch alcohol (think a few times a year)
Not a strenuous job.

I didn't think this could happen without a vaginally birth.

Any advice is helpful.
Even sympathy at this point. I'll take it all.
