Ive just wet myself

[Honeyplease]

So I’ve had two kids, i’m 36. I’ve never suffered with any kind of incontinence issues before despite two forceps births, I can go on trampolines without worrying etc!

Just did the school run (freezing) came home and went to the put the kettle on and suddenly wet myself. I did need a wee but only just it wasn’t like I had been holding it for ages. I had no way to stop it, I was trying but it was having no affect.

Is this normal!? I’m a little shocked.

I don't think this is normal. Maybe just a weird one off but if it happens again I'd see your GP as it's strange that you didn't feel that it was about to happen.

Sounds like a medical issue. I’d definitely see a GP and try not to worry because it could be a one-off or something else that can be fixed.

Could you have a UTI? I've found they were more painful when I was younger now they can just make my bladder very irritable and urgent need to go. Might be worth a trip to the doctor's though, this happened to me once after my second child and I had to do pelvic floor exercises. Luckily hasn't happened since

Sounds like a possible combination of mild uti and cold weather (I find the cold can sort of paralyse my bladder and I dont really realise I need to go, then when I go back in the warm it suddenly comes back to life and whoa, I have to go right now!)

Thanks everyone. I’ve honestly not had any symptoms of a uti so dont think its that, but will keep an eye on it.

I think I’ll see if it was a one off. I hope so

I've had the sudden urge to go and it being uncontrollable as my only symptom of a UTI.
