PS how many have you done since opening this thread?

I am very bad as this article is the first time I've remembered pelvic floor exercises in months! I only seem to remember when I read something online about them! I have 9 children, but have been totally OK and no problems at all so it has made me very lazy - also I don't have any spare time! I know I should probably make more effort though. The most embarrassing thing for me was that my MIL always used to tell me to do my pelvic floor exercises every time I went round to see her when I had the first 3!

I do them whilst waiting for the kettle to boil :)

I have an app that I use :)

I always forget ! :-( Will be peeing my pants when hayfever season sets in!

I tried but gave up.didnt realise at the time how important they are

I actually set alarms on my phone that go off each day at suitable time just to give me a quick reminder to give it a go! I have 3 alarms on a day, I don't always stick to it but it is such a great way to remind myself because I have a terrible memory otherwise. Normally because I'm so used to it, I know when the alarm is about to go off and so am ready anyway because it's part of my routine now.

Do them whilst making tea, washing dishes etc. No one notices

i never remember to do them regularly but thanks to you all for your nifty techniques to remember im sure ill be doing them without fail now

Yoga! Regularly... once a week for me. Helps the pelvic floor and I love it :)

You're often told to do them when brushing your teeth but it's even better to do them every time you turn on a tap.

Whenever I sneeze!

I try to do it sometimes when I'm putting my baby to sleep in the evening and during the day, and sometimes when I'm breastfeeding or when I'm in the shower.

Comment on this thread. Then every time it is updated, I'll be reminded to squeeze!

Thanks for all the tips and suggestions!
