i worry i am going to smell like pee

[rosydreams]

Of all the pregnancy symptoms i get this one leaky bladder even during my first pregnancy i had trouble with leakage.Now i got a mild problem with my chest at the moment i cant stop peeing.I had to change my underwear 3 times today.I know hormonal changes do some strange things but dam this is annoying =/

It sounds like it’s time for some pads to prevent leakage being a problem. You can either get disposable ones or reusable ones.

Then, once you’ve got that sorted, you need a referral to a physiotherapist. Some places allow you to self-refer, and others need someone to refer you. My midwife referred me, and it came through really quickly.

Good luck!

Bless you! I'm sure, if you're super careful, you won't smell of pee. People who leak a bit are always self conscious about it & it is distressing. When your cough goes, you will find the leaks lessen - and it's not for ever.
Congratulations on having another baby. x

thanks i didnt think to tell the midwife as its just pregnancy symptoms when i have the baby it will go away.I guess i am going to have to get pads =/

Surely pads are a much better solution than changing your underwear 3 times a day and worrying and smelling?

*worrying about smelling

i was trying to avoid it i didnt like the idea of sitting in pee but i guess it will be as essential as breast pads when my milk eventually comes in i make enough milk to feed a nursery lol

Have you ever used Tena lady? It’s not like sitting in pee, I think there’s something in them that soaks the urine away. I had to use them for a while after giving birth and found them great.
Congratulations on your pregnancy. And tell your midwife

thanks
