I was mortified...was on a rare date to the cinema last night with dp and was dying for the loo mid film...thought id better go before I got too desperate, so I stood up and as I walked I just felt myself slowly wetting Blush . I literally didnt even have the option to stop it, couldn't even feel myself weeing if that makes sense. I am 24 weeks.

I am horrified and having panicks now that it was my waters, but as I was dying for a wee and it smelled like wee (sorry) and there has been nothing since...im pretty confident it wasn't. I had been drinking a fizzy drink which probably didnt help and this baby has been lying so low - I can feel lots of very low movement.

I had terribly weak pelvic floors after my large ds (had physio) and have always had quite a weak bladder but am now terrified this will carry on after ive had the baby. Please someone tell me this is at least somewhere on the scale of normal or will go away with a billion pelvic floors?!

Not a major flood but minor leakage especially when I'm sick. Not always clear if it's pee or excess discharge but I now wear panty liners. Perhaps it's time to invest in Tena?

Normal! I have a bad cough at the moment and have resorted to wearing sanitary pads at work, just in case.

There was a thread about this a couple if weeks ago, maybe try and look back on it.

I'm pregnant with no2 and if i sneeze etc it happens also when I get in a bath. But not had anything major xx I'm 37 weeks now and have found its slowly getting worse x

yougotafastcar · 05/10/2014 08:36

Im pregnant with number 2 and have fully wet myself while being sick a couple of times Blush its horrible

Errrr2012 · 05/10/2014 10:06

I rolled over in bed the other week and peed myself!!! Was about 37 weeks and had a rare full night sleep without getting up to pee. Mortified all the same, 39 weeks now and looking forward to the pregnancy indignities being over.

Phew, glad it's not just me thanks all - I have leaked when coughing or sneezing before but I could feel that and stop it whereas this was just like it leaked out of me and I had no power to stop weeing!

Thanks LBNM19 I will definately look that up!

yousayimadreamer I did the exact same thing at a concert earlier in the year! Wasn't pregnant then but still suffering from a crap pelvic floor after having DD. Pregnant again now and it's still just as bad if not worse Blush

I'm wearing tena lady now as it's just nice to have that bit of protection. For me it can be sneeze, cough, laugh, jump, run, when sick....list goes on!

You're not alone! SmileBrewThanks

Yeah i did it in my last pregnancy. I was being sick while OH was rubbing my back starting weeing myself. Luckily he didn't seem bothered which helped with my embarrassment ha, which was good as happened about 4 times that day. Oooops.
All back to normal, but recently found out I'm pregnant again. Yay to panty liners

I almost choked on a bit of food which went down the wrong way yesterday and let a fair bit of wee go in the process. 24 weeks with DC2. Little leaks with coughs/sneezes sometimes too. Oh the dignity.

monkeymamma · 06/10/2014 20:55

Every time i sneeze, every time i puke (which has been a lot). Also had to do a full wee in the shower the other day, which I've never done before!
I had a large DS last time, we could be in the same boat OP. (I'm 30 weeks btw). I best go and do some pelvic floor exercises!

towards the end of my pregnancy twice in one night. thought it was my waters at first as it happened on my due date.

first time, I was sitting on the sofa (thank god they are leather ones) and felt wet. went to the loo and my knickers were soaked through. Went to labour suit only to be told that I had wet my self as waters looked as if they were still in tack. Got home and about 2 in the morning it happened again! This time I could feel it start to managed to get to the loo in time

Mexicantortilla · 09/10/2014 01:42

Blooming loads - everytime I'm sick!

TheWholeOfTheSpoon · 09/10/2014 01:45

If it makes you feel any better, I'm NOT pregnant and peed myself a little today. My post 4 kids bladder could just not cope with the 3 soda waters I had with lunch, a long drive and the inevitable desperate run to the loo. Welcome to our world! Grin

emmalouise1091 · 09/10/2014 03:26

I was at work the last time it happened. Had bright blue jeans on and it was really obvious. Had to walk past about 20 people to ask to go home and change my trousers. Most embarrassing moment of my life haha!
