To ask is there any way to stop this? <TMI>

[BabyMakesTheBellyGoRound]

Is there any way to stop the old bathwater up the fanny phenomenon? Preferably without being measuring for a sink plug.

There was a lady i worked with years ago lived over the road from the office. She used to go home for cheese on toast and a bit of rude. Couldn't look at her in the afternoon-serving all the customers like butter wouldn't melt. I was only about 17.

Oh post bath gush? No idea.

Sparklingbrook is that where you got your name? How... lovely.

Ewww Jesus nooooo!!

Just be glad you gush and don't retain www.reference.com/motif/health/free-fluid-in-pouch-of-douglas

But put that way it sounds almost dainty! You know, "Water pearls gleaming on her skin, Natasha stepped gracefully out of the bath, having first waited for her post-ablution sparklingbrook to subside."

Pouch of Douglas? There's your namechange right there

I thought I could just go the whole hog and be postbathgush Jesus.

I am SOOOOO glad this happens to other people. afaik it is because changes in posture change the orientation of your pelvic organs, and can sort of suck them all up which can also suck up some water... I have been kegel-ing like a good girl, and doing my "saving the whole woman" exercises, and i still get this and the occasional runner's widdle too. Which is vair normal too, it seems! Who knew?!

At the risk of sounding naive, who is Benji?

When I was a child, I had a dog called Benji

Ive had 3 sections and I get this, but not all the time. I always sit on the loo just ater my bath and that usually solves it.

Thank fuck for mumsnet I honestly thought there was something seriously wrong with me and my ability to suck bathwater up my fanjo!!!

I have to wear sanitary towels after I have a bath and can sometimes control the gush but other times it takes me totally by surprise

Have never had javelin arse though

MN ...the 5th Emergency Service

Benji means sex.

Oh my word. I actually went to the dr about this when I was at uni (ie long before children) and was sent to see the physio! I wonder if they knew and were having a right old laugh at my expense. I never knew.

I get the post sex one too. Tbh it puts me off having a bath and having sex!

and at AnyFucker's dog?

Don't get it post-bath, but it can be over 24hrs later post-sex. Which as you can imagine is just delightful.

So do we have four categories?
1 - post bath only
2 - post bath and post sex
3 - post sex only
4 - none of the above, what the hell are you all talking about?

I am in category 1 Minnie.

Have never heard of this. Next time I have a bath I'm going to see if I can deliberately suck some water up.
Thinking about it, are you sure you're not subconsciously doing pelvic floor exercises in the bath?

"Benji means sex"

Well I've learnt something new today, and it isn't even 7.30am yet.

The swimming thing is worst. Go swimming, get dressed, sort hair, walk to car park, get in car, gush all over the seat :(

I thought everyone had the post-sex one. Surely what goes up must come down? Does it stay up some women then?

I find breaststroke is the most effective way of sucking extraordinary amounts of water into your fanny.

I released it unintentionally onto the changing room floor at the gym - I was not alone. I did not return

And I have 5 out of 5 for fanny muscle tone dontcha know. I've had fanny physio.

This is not a phenomenon for those with loose lips.

Javelin Arse is really called Proctalgia Fugax, I've been really suffering since having DS2 2 weeks ago.

Javelin Arse,fanny whooshes (confused). Wtf! I've never heard of these or indeed had them and I am 48 with teenagers!!

Tweasels - they have changed how you are supposed to do breast stroke. You have to keep your knees together and do what can only be described as the Charleston. Froggy legs are old style.
