With my first the catheter didn't work because her head was blocking off something that would've allowed my bladder to empty. It was really uncomfortable when they put it in and since it didn't work they agreed to take it out. They had me try to go in a bed pan but still nothing came out because she was blocking it.
I'm wondering if I might have the option to request NOT to have a catheter this time and just try a bed pan if needed. It was seriously so awkward and uncomfortable feeling. Did anyone here request NOT to have one?
