Do you <ahem> collect water during a bath

[Knotnora]

Is this one of those things that happens to every woman but nobody talks about.

5 minutes after a bath and its like your water just broke...

This is a thing yeah?

I guess the fishy spunk fallout is nature's way of putting the next man off while the first guy's swimmers have a bash

That is hilariously dreadful, Penny

Halfpintpixie you just mafe me guffaw!

I'm wondering if lower muscles tighten back up first or are less prone to losing tone in the first place Downstairs (apt ) and maybe the upper reaches are more prone to problems? So that door security is the tightest as it were?

You're exactly right Just5. That's what my pelvic physio told me. So basically, I can still grip, but once you get past the initial resistance it's like a fucking ballroom

Happens to me but only recently. 4dc. 3cs and a natural very small prem. So I don't think it's because I'm massive down there. Why are visions of a deep cave coming into my head

Ah thanks madmomma. That solves that

Haha, it sometimes happens to me. The other day I crouched down to get something out from a cupboard under the bathroom sink and all this water started pouring out. Worrying.

This thread is hilarious and educational.

But the thought of all that internal fanny soup out there in the nation's swimming pools is enough to put me off swimming for life!

V O M @ fannysoup. Oh. God.

downstairs next time you have a smear you can ask the nurse to flip your cervix over. I know it sounds barbaric but it's only mildly uncomfortable. The nurse did mine a few years ago (in a very matter of fact way, after declaring that it was upside down) and I've never had any period pain since, whereas I always used to get backache. Odd but true.

What??? Flip cervix over?

We need to hear more about this flipping of the cervix.

We do.

I know. It's weird. But she just piched it between the salad-tongue thingies, and turned it over. It felt weird and slightly uncomfortable for a few seconds but not painful. I was rather taken-aback myself, but there you go.

I wish I had time for a bath

Ooh, all sounding very familiar.

But at the risk of lowering the tone further, I would like to ask if anyone else has trouble with air collecting up there and then wondering what to do with it? This is not just during sex, it can happen when I'm just sitting there at work or in the car absentmindedly tapping my foot/moving one leg repeatedly in a certain way. I discovered this this while walking from the car to school gates one day (had been sitting waiting and must have been tapping my leg to a song on the radio or something). With nearly every step I did a loud fanny fart, I had to feign a coughing fit to mask the noise and try to get the air out quicker.

I'm sure that I could blow a fucking balloon up, the amount of air that is up there sometimes.

Now that is very interesting because both DM and I stopped having period pains after having children (and I work with a poor woman who only started having period pains after children), I wonder if things got rearranged during the birth?

Blimey! Yes. I get the water whoosh baths and swimming. And the sex one.

Since dc (one vb, with third degree tear and slight vaginal wall bulge, didn't say if anterior or posterior, ELCS for my dts) I have had a tampon fall out and they turn sideways a lot. In fact, currently trying a menstrual cup to see if that's better. It doesn't fall out but leaks like a bitch. My theory is that either I still have a bulge in the wall, or just a fanjo like a wizard's sleeve after my vb (as I has no issues with tampons prior to this). Oh, and posterior uterus, high cervix if that helps!

A bit loath to update now it's in classics. But had a check-up this morning and even managed to mention it to the doctor (once I had the pill prescription in my pocket), who said it can happen due to a weakness in the pelvic floor. Nothing to worry about as such, can be fixed by an operation but he wouldn't generally operate on someone my age, would wait until older. He will investigate further when I go back for my next check up (in a year) if I think it's worth it/it's worse.
