to wee in the shower?

Have NC-d in case this isn't normal. Naice ham, gluezilla, yoni etc.

Do you wee in the shower? I never used to and would have thought it pretty disgusting. But since having DC things aren't as they used to be & now if I need to, I just go.

AIBU?

I do Smile

Joiningthegang · 08/08/2013 23:13

Yep - normal I reckon

thecatneuterer · 08/08/2013 23:13

Can't see the problem with it.

littlewhitebag · 08/08/2013 23:14

Why is it disgusting? It just washes down the drain. I do it too from time to time. Sometimes the noise of the water in the shower makes me need and I am not going to get the whole bathroom soaking when I can wee where I am!

mumofweeboys · 08/08/2013 23:14

Since my darling boys my pelvic floor doesnt give me the choice sometimes when the water starts running

AlbertoFrog · 08/08/2013 23:14

Another one here who does. And another one who didn't pre DC. I do always feel guilty though. Don't know why.

milkysmum · 08/08/2013 23:15

Yep I would

susiedaisy · 08/08/2013 23:16

Yep

Binkyridesagain · 08/08/2013 23:17

elQuintoConyo · 08/08/2013 23:39

Yes, over here, I do Grin

Is it an old wives' tale that it cures athlete's foot? Must get Rafa Nadal in there with me next time, fnar!

CuttedUpPear · 08/08/2013 23:41

Yep

Cheeseatmidnight · 08/08/2013 23:46

Me too :)

runningonwillpower · 08/08/2013 23:48

It is dirty. Don't kid yourselves.

Tweasels · 08/08/2013 23:49

How is it dirty?

edlyu · 08/08/2013 23:53

It isnt dirty .How can it be with all that soap and water running constantly?
Maybe it can cure athletes foot too

vaticancameo · 08/08/2013 23:56

If it's not dirty...would you be fine with a guest in your house doing it? You'd be happy having a shower straight after they'd been in?

Wee may be sterile, but it's still a bodily fluid, and convention dictates it's polite not to release said fluids where other people (excepting people you have sex with, perhaps) share a space.

If no-one else ever uses your shower, let rip...

PomBearWithAnOFRS · 08/08/2013 23:58

After giving birth five times, I can honestly say that that First Wee is only ever made remotely bearable, and not teeth clenchingly horrendous, by being performed in a shower

soontobeslendergirl · 09/08/2013 00:00

Christ no. Would you stand in a toilet bowl filled with wee?

I know there is soap and water, but it's still not on. Would you happy for your OH to stand and wee in the sink and then wash his hands with soap in it afterwards? I don't think so.

I caught one of the kids doing it once and gave them a bollocking.

soontobeslendergirl · 09/08/2013 00:01

I mean I caught them wee-ing in the shower, not the sink.

WafflyVersatile · 09/08/2013 00:03

And pass up the chance to wee standing up? We owe it to feminism to pee in the shower!

Or something.

Lanceolate · 09/08/2013 00:05

Manky.

runningonwillpower · 09/08/2013 00:07

Pee in your shower? C'mon be honest. How can it not be dirty?

I shower every day. I wear clean clothes every day. Yet my shower gets dirty. I have to clean it every now and then. And that's without piss in it.

Unless you can magically piss straight down the plug hole without your pee touching anything else, then it's mixing right up with all the other grease and gunk that needs cleaning out of you shower every other fucking day.

And so rests my case for not pissing in your shower. Cos it's dirty.
