I wet my knickers in M&S on purpose.

Ok, so I've changed my name to protect my identity and from the life long ribbing I'd get on here.

I went Xmas shopping with my mother and we stopped at M&S for a bite to eat, I need to wee more but am also hungry -we had to queue for ages but finally when we sat down all was good.

I go to use the loo as by now I am desperate. There is a man outside the loo with a cleaning cart and he stops me from going in "I'm cleaning them" he says. After 10 minutes of waiting there, staring at him staring at the door I say "You're not actually cleaning them are you?"

He says "Yes I have to wait 20 minutes to make sure everyone is out"

"Well, I'll go in there have a look for you , spend a penny at the same time and we'll all be happy"

"No, I'm cleaning" he says

By this point I am barely able to walk and scream in an awful Nicki (from BB) fashion
"I'm bloody 7 months pregnant and need to wee for gods sake"

"But I'm cleaning" he says still outside staring at the door, now with his arm in the way of entry.

Right then.

And I wet myself in front of all the other ladies who were tutting at having to wait.

Cue one of the ladies in the queue getting an assistant who then got the manager who took me to the staff toilets/asked my size brought me some knickers and trousers and apologised profusely.

I am terribly stubborn sometimes.

Unpleasant situation to be in, but a full grown woman weeing on the floor . A very odd way to handle the situation.

its all relative fannyannie

a young pg mother cant really compare bladder problems with a care home resident

Chandra · 21/11/2006 12:37

I guess it would have been easier to get an assistant but maybe you would have got wet on the way to find one (and missing the chance to make an "statement"). So, I'm horrified at the tw*t who wrote the 20 minute rule (there are never enough women's toilets FGS), at the brainless cleaner and although I doubt I would have had the courage to do the same, I admire the courage to do it.

let's all wee when we don't get our way in future

let's wee at the supermarket when there's no milk left

let's wee in our own car when we can't get a parking space

or at the bar when men are pushing in

that'll show everybody

oh I don't know about that - some of our residents I think are more 'with it' than a lot of young pg mums (myself included in the latter LOL).

Cappuccino · 21/11/2006 12:39

I would have admired the courage to go speak to the manager more Chandra

pissing seems a bit cowardly and infantile in my opinion

nailpolish · 21/11/2006 12:39

its like the vicks ad where the woman flings herself on the floor in the shop

what would we all have said if she had pissed herslef too

pesme · 21/11/2006 12:40

get a grip. she weed cos she is 7 months pregnant, probably v. tired and emotional and she couldn't get to the loo. bizarre pregnant behaviour is a whole thread in itself.

oh I LOVE that advert - and it's something I HAVE been tempted to do myself

nailpolish · 21/11/2006 12:40

@ the phrase "with it"

VeniVidiVickiQV · 21/11/2006 12:40

I dont think I would have resolved it in the same way.

hunkermunker · 21/11/2006 12:40

Everyone else is now trying to work out who this could be, right?

nailpolish · 21/11/2006 12:41

ive done the flinging on the floor tantrum in front of the dd's

but only in the house!

madmarchhare · 21/11/2006 12:41

pesme, er no, she peed on the floor cos she didnt get her own way

Cappuccino · 21/11/2006 12:42

naily 'with it' perhaps refers to them listening to LL Cool J?

hunkermunker · 21/11/2006 12:43

I couldn't have wet myself on purpose in this situation.

I probably could've done by accident though

pesme · 21/11/2006 12:43

she was standing outside a loo with a weirdy man refusing her entry for no good reason. he was being freakish, she over reacted but it probably felt good at the time.

fannyannie · 21/11/2006 12:43

yes - it's the phrase that our 6 non dementia residents like to use about themselves. One annoyingly declaring to the whole room that she's more "with it than the rest of them put together" (which is possibly true - but some are only in the early stages of dementia) - and I'm certainly not "with it" at the moment - accused my DH of shagging "someone" else this morning with absolutely no evidence other than 2 durex from a pack of the condoms that I bought were in his jacket pocket.......a jacket which he hasn't worn for months - and last wore when we went out for the night

cece · 21/11/2006 12:43

I love it! Ibet he thinks twice about not letting pg ladies into the toilet! I hope he had to clean it up. LOL

nailpolish · 21/11/2006 12:44

pesme - felt good as in nice and warm on her cold oedematus feet??!!

fannyannie · 21/11/2006 12:44

nailpolish - did it work - that flinging on the floor thing? I'm so desperate to try it - I think the DS's faces would be a picture LOL.

nailpolish · 21/11/2006 12:45

fannyannie - yep. works like a treat. they forget the reason they had their own tantrum in the first place. and go silent with horror at mummy!

fannyannie · 21/11/2006 12:46

oooo - roll on next tantrum at home.....I'm going to try it out

Now I'd better go and feed DS2 - he's been waiting 45 minutes and is currently in the process of trashing his bedroom while he waits !
