Hi i had my baby 5 days ago but i have not manged to go wee so iwas sent home for a week with a catheter n i just wanna know if i will ever be able to wee on my own i had my baby natural n he was 6 pounds n 3 oz he was a premature baby im scared i wont be able to wee on my own ever

Oh I'm sorry to hear that. I have no experience but I'd like to think it would have been mentioned if it was likely to be a long term thing.

Can you ask midwife for an update or more information?

Congratulations on your baby.

Yes, you will.

Ask your midwife.

Birth can bruise your bits and they get swollen, blocking your urethra. Probably that bad it'll improve when swelling goes down.

Thank you
