Bizarre bladder issues post birth...

Hi! Since having my second child six weeks ago (vaginal delivery) I've been having some very weird bladder problems. Every time I stand up or walk around I have a nagging feeling that my bladder is full. When I go to the loo the amount that comes out doesn't justify the feeling of needing a wee. It's never empty, but not at all full. Bizarrely, when I'm lying or sitting down I don't experience any sensations, even when my bladder is full! I've been tested for a UTI (negative), nothing hurts, and I've been doing my pelvic floor exercises. Things don't seem to be improving. Has anyone experienced the same thing post labour?

I had kind of a similar thing about 2 weeks after birth but the problem was I couldn't pee very easily and my bladder was so full. It was horrible! I just drank as much water as I could and eventually it passed.

I would go back to your GP if it doesn't improve. You know when something isn't right!
