Justcanthelpit · 01/09/2011 20:56

I think I'm going to be ok,
then the warm water hits me, i start soaping
and my bladder opens!

If I hold it and dash out of the shower to the loo
I'll get a soaking floor so Aibu just to let it flow?

I have facial mask on, hair mask on, I brush my teeth, and pee in the shower, multitasking or what?
I am way to busy in the shower to get onto the loo, just for a pee

EnglishMumInSouthOfFrance · 03/09/2011 21:34

Peeing in the bath? Really? Doesn't that defy the whole point of having a bath in the first place?

SnakeOnCrack · 03/09/2011 21:27

why is a bit of wee worse than menstrual blood? That comes out in the shower too.

warmandwooly · 03/09/2011 19:30

No. I get out. Each to their own tho.

I once lived in a flat where the shower was the kitchen, as in, there were shower mats on the floor like you get at the swimming pool, and a shower head, so you just stood in the kitchen and the water went down then drain. When we moved in I joked to dp 'you better not pee in the shower' and he said 'but why don't you want me pee in the kitchen?'

Plonker · 03/09/2011 17:29

I can't do it. I tried once and just couldn't get anything to come out

I guess I couldn't relax enough - I was bursting to go too!

Toilet it is then ...

MardyBra · 03/09/2011 16:16

Now I know why my feet are minging.

CheerfulYank · 03/09/2011 02:29

I pee and brush my teeth in the shower.

Sometimes at the same time. :)

strictlovingmum · 03/09/2011 00:02

Pee away, perfectly normal, it would not even cross my mind to run to toilet for a pee, urine is clean and sterile, and good for your feet

brickingit · 02/09/2011 23:50

Millie, we've all done that! Peeing is a different and (apparently) far more serious matter. Guilty.

milliemae · 02/09/2011 23:46

Standard practise. Only freaks don't (or say they don't...)

PS DD2 is result of something FAR worse in shower...

RebelFromTheWaistDown · 02/09/2011 23:39

Now I need a wee!

BoastingByStealth · 02/09/2011 23:29

I need a wee now reading all about peeing.

BoastingByStealth · 02/09/2011 23:27

There was a massive row on (I think) the first ever Big Brother becaus eone housemate admitted to peeing in the shower, and others found this completely unacceptable.

I pee in the shower, usually more than once each time :)

rhondajean · 02/09/2011 23:25

You all do WHAT??????

EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!

biscuitmad · 02/09/2011 23:22

I hate it when your in the shower and the need is too much. If I try to get out and on the loo I end up slipping. So for me yes I pee in the shower.

Next day I will put bleach down the plug hole just incase.

MrsHairyWhitemouse · 02/09/2011 22:45

Must be true

Non-pisser ex H has athlete's foot and vile feet.

MrsHairyWhitemouse · 02/09/2011 22:42

H noticed the lack of flush in the morning, deduced I weed in the shower and was disgusted , so out of courtesy to him I didn't (or at least flushed the loo on the way to the shower) to make him happy

He is now an exH and I wee in the shower with abandon

Blatherskite · 02/09/2011 22:07

I looked this up once (after an MN thread obviosuly) and I'm sure I read that urine is only sterile as it leaves your kidneys. There are bacteria in your bladder and urethra (sp?) so by the time you're peeing, it is no longer sterile.

It is however, only full of bacteria you already have in your body anyway so providing there's only you in the shower and it's getting propely sluiced away, you're not doing any harm to pee in the shower.

Also, I bought some "recommended my Mumsnet" Flexitol hand cream on Monday - the magic ingredient is Urea - so you're probably saving a fortune on foot cream too :)

WorzselMummage · 02/09/2011 22:02

Everyone wees in the shower, don't they?!

I have a loo brush too btw. Ner ner ner ner ner..

devonshiredumpling · 02/09/2011 21:57

i had a shower this morning and did not bother to wee first and felt a lot cleaner after washing it away than using bog roll

Maggie1973 · 02/09/2011 21:39

I always pee in the shower. I read somewhere that it's good for your feet.

So glad to have read this thread!
I am another who can go to the toilet before a shower and as soon as I get in there need to go again.
I thought I was the only one!

RedRubyBlue · 02/09/2011 15:25

OP - when you start saving it in jars that is when you ABU

tiddlerslate · 02/09/2011 15:15

I wee before I get in the shower but often then need to wee again straight away so I just go in the shower. I blame 9lbs 14 oz DD2 for wrecking my pelvic floor.
