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.

I think the OP needs to clarify wether she did it because she couldn't stop herself or wether it was a concious defiant action. The former I can understand and sympathise with, the latter is just wrong.

Oh I am so glad I didn't post under my real name now. And you know what, frankly I couldn't give a damn whether you think it's gross or not.

I was shaking it was so bad, there was no way on this earth that I could have moved an inch let alone walked and then pain was immense, in fact when I thought sod it I'll do it I actually couldn't at first it hurt so much.

Wanted to post as I think it's disgusting they would even insist on doing this to any woman.

thread title says 'on purpose'

ledodgychristmasjumper · 21/11/2006 12:48

at this thread! You could have at least pretended it was your waters that had gone.

Well it is on purpose in the sense that she didn't try and find anywhere else.

But as she's made obvious, that wasn't an option.

Maybe the man had got into trouble for not sticking to his schedule before. If he was just being a jobsworth then that wasn't good. Also, what if he had to pay for the trousers and knickers out of his wages. He might have been on minimum wage so £30 - £40 would be a lot to lose.

I'm not trying to defend his stubborness but I would be worried about the repurcussions for him when I got home.

I'm going to skulk off now, please don't shout at me.

That kind of sounds like is was enevitable it was going to happen tbh (so not totally on purpose)

I don't think M&S would make him pay it out of his wages.

They're not that kind of employer.

IPdaily · 21/11/2006 12:52

It was on purpose. It wasn't an accident, I'm not incontinent. The pain was so bad that I couldn't hang on. I gave up because I was disgusted at how I was being treated.

Now, had I have been in my car on a motorway doing 70mph who's to say mentally I could of hung on another 5 minutes.

I thought it was illegal to refuse a pg woman access to a toilet or am I living in cuckoo land?

Its only wee for Gawds sake. Good on you I say. If they don't want that reaction now and again they should ensure their staff can use some common sense and discretion.

FIMBO · 21/11/2006 12:52

Surely this is a joke. If not, I think I would have gone to the mens. Imagine if they had not got you new pants and trousers - mega gross.

madmarchhare · 21/11/2006 12:52

I dont think anyone would have a problem if you couldnt help it IPD, but your OP and title did point toward the fact that you did.

FIMBO · 21/11/2006 12:54

NP-the wifey that flings on herself on the floor is she not the new Doc in Eastenders?

A pregnant woman has the right to pee in a policeman's helmet if no toilets are nearby.... one of those odd laws they've never bothered to change.

Like being able to shoot a welshman with a longbow on a saturday or something...

yeahbutnobut · 21/11/2006 12:57

dammit where's a policeman when you need one?

KathyMCMLXXII · 21/11/2006 12:58

They don't often seem to wear helmets these days - would it apply if they are wearing another kind of hat?

Mell2 · 21/11/2006 13:00

Think i would have used the mens.

Brought back memories of going for my scan. Duly drank my water on the tube - only i started to drink too soon. Once out of the station i had to run round like a loon looking for a toilet. Honestly thought i was going to pass out. Had goosebumps the lot.

I then had to go and buy some more water and start all over again!

fimbo i dont watch eastenders

Bugsy2 · 21/11/2006 13:09

There is no way I would have wet myself deliberately. I would not have stood there for 10 mins either. I would have asked a member of staff to find the manager for me, explained how desperate I was & used a toilet somehow or another.
I appreciate the stand you were taking, but I'd always rather use my speaking skills before my body.

Cappuccino · 21/11/2006 13:10

come on

she wanted to wee before she joined the queue for food

then she queued for ages

it's hardly his fault she held on till the last possible minute

we tell our kids to go before they're really really desperate

FIMBO · 21/11/2006 13:10

Nailpolish-HERE . I think it looks like her.
