Rather embarrassing problemo

I've changed my name for this rather embarrassing problem.

Does anyone else leak a little when they get out of a hot bath?

Is it wee or is it water? Even if I go to the bog I still leak a bit.

Rhubarb, is that you?

OtterInnit · 17/05/2007 21:17

do you mean from fandango or vaginismus (note coded names)

mummytosteven · 17/05/2007 21:17

there has been a thread about this in the dim and distant past! the general conclusion was IIRC it's water and quite normal.

Charleesunnysunsun · 17/05/2007 21:18

It's water.

I went to the hosp when pg with ds as i had a 'leak' the first thing they saud is ;
'have you had a bath?' apparently you can get water trapped and then gravity takes effect and it leaks out again.

rofl
rhubarb? you there?

roffling hard now

SoupDragon · 17/05/2007 21:18

Actually I'm sure there was a whole thread on this a whilse ago. The genreal consensus was that yes they did and it's bathwater. And it doesn't matter whether you had a vaginal birth or a c-section either although for some it didn't happen whilst pregnant.

NotRhubarb · 17/05/2007 21:18

Oh rightyho then!

So long as I'm not going incontinent or anything.

And I'm so annoyed that I have been outed! How very dare you Soupy!

It is bath water I think. Gets 'sucked up' while bathing

I distinctly remember a thread about it a couple of years ago and for some reason, SpaceDonkey seems to be stuck in my mind as one of the posters on it...no idea if she was or not

Rhubarb - is that you?

rabbleraiser · 17/05/2007 21:18

Snort! It's weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee !!

I leak a little when I get in the bath, so it must be wee

whomovedmychocolate · 17/05/2007 21:18

How long ago did you have a baby? If it's within the last six months, I wouldn't worry if I were you. If not, umm ease and squeeze (tone your pelvic floor in other words).

I don't leak no.

Well my boobs do but nothing lower

MerryMarigold · 17/05/2007 21:19

yes, if I have a good old swoosh with the water i think some goes up (not sure which orifice) and then dribbles when get out.

MrsDiorKeanuReeves · 17/05/2007 21:19

Bollocks - too late!

OtterInnit · 17/05/2007 21:19

its fine to have a baggy vag

dingolimpet · 17/05/2007 21:19

Yes I think it's normal, I can nearly suck up a whole bath.
I thought Fandango and vaginisnus were the same thing?

NotRhubarb · 17/05/2007 21:19

I SAID I 'AVE CHANGED MY NAME SO HOW COME YOU ALL KNOWS IT IS ME?

Fecking feckers!

Happens loads! Have a wee when you get out of the bath, that usually helps to flush it out...or stand in garden, leak away and tell neighbours you are doing your bit to prevent hosepipe bans in summer by reusing bath water

whomovedmychocolate · 17/05/2007 21:19

But the fanjo is NOT A SPONGE - how can that be true

NotRhubarb · 17/05/2007 21:20

Ds is 3 and he is the youngest.

Just to clarify though, my vag is certainly NOT baggy!

And my pelvic floor is very impressive so says my gp, which is why I was slightly puzzled as to the leakage.

Hilllary · 17/05/2007 21:20

My fanjo always guzzles up the bath water, you can actually suck it up and push it back out - great fun

MrsDiorKeanuReeves · 17/05/2007 21:21

No idea! It happens to me sometimes if I have had a really long bath. I am definitely NOT incontinent, so it must be bath water. Never happens at any other time.

whomovedmychocolate · 17/05/2007 21:21

Oh feck, I've got the world's tiniest fanjo and now you tell me I'm meant to widdle-walk out of the bath too. I'm off to netmums to be cuddled

NotRhubarb · 17/05/2007 21:22

Happens more when the bath is very hot.

Perhaps my vag muscles are so strong I suck it up and then let it out again when I get out?

rabbleraiser · 17/05/2007 21:22

Alright Chocolate. So you've got a tight vag!

Nikki76 · 17/05/2007 21:22

Maybe you have a thirsty vag???!

NotRhubarb · 17/05/2007 21:23

chocolate's dh must be a happy lad.
