I try to remember to go before I get in the shower, but if my mind is full of other things, sometimes I forget! Its never happened to me before I was pregnant, but I'm even more of a scatterbrain now, I can't help it! And DH does all the time appearently!
I would never ever pee in the shower. I do however, get out of the shower to go to the bathroom and then get back in. Sometimes I really have to go, but I am not willing to cut my shower short
I'm actually pretty shocked people do this. Don't you ever take baths?
I don't pee in the tub, but I will admit to peeing in the shower on occasion.
NOTE: I have a separate shower. I just realized that you were probably thinking of a shower/tub combo. The water rinses it down though along with the dirt on your body. Some people won't take a bath since technically you are sitting in your own dirty water.
Only when I can't hold it and if it does happen, I try my best to aim for the drain, so non of my pee gets on the bath mat. Peeing all over the place and then standing in it is kinda gross, especially if you share a shower and then you could be standing in someone elses pee...

I admit to peeing in the shower before and after pregnancy. I dont see the point in getting out if i have to go. A drain is a drain. And no, we dont take baths.
Funny story, after DH and I were comfortable with each other, we took a shower together. I had to pee so i told him and he said "you pee in the shower?! Ew gross." I told him to stop it, i know he does too and he laughed and admitted it. Haha.

We only have a bath/shower combo, so if I pee in the shower and then take a bath I would be sitting in pee-tainted water. Or at least that's what I would be obsessively thinking.
I pee in the shower. So does DH. We are micro-conservators, so flushing a toilet is wasting water to us (when compared to the "If you're already in the shower" scenario). I don't take baths, but DH does. And for the record, he cleans the tub before he gets in.?
This whole conversation got brought up because DH was telling my mom a drunk story from when he was younger and living at his parents' house. He came home and was so drunk that instead of peeing in the toilet, he accidentally peed in the shower without realizing it (not while he was in the shower, mind you... just *in* the shower - now that IS GROSS). He woke up the next morning to his mom screaming, "WHO PEED IN THE SHOWER?!"
My mom thought the story was hilarious, and then commented, "Peeing in the shower is gross, even if there was water running." DH responds, "A drain is a drain." It got me wondering how many people might.?
[In a Paul Harvey-like voice] Now you know the rest of the story. :-)

I'm going to post a link to this poll on the 1st and 3rd Tri boards to see how many votes we can get. Haha, I'm glad you all liked it!?
All I have to say is if you think peeing in the shower/tub is gross, you better find somewhere else to bathe your kids. It's like they hold it for the bathtub. LOL.
Yes, I am a proud shower pee-er. I am also a proud compulsive shower scrubber. We have five people using that shower...so, yeah, it gets cleaned daily anyway.
It bothers me way more to think about the water waste of flushing the toilet when I'm going to have gallons running down the drain anyhow. Urine is sterile anyhow.
This is hilarious! ?My best friend and I had an apartment together while we were in college. ?One day we got into a big fight because she told me that she peed in the shower all the time. ?I thought it was so gross! ?We always laugh about that fight now, and I'm going to tell her about these results. ?She'll love it.

This! ... and I usually take baths, and I definitely don't pee in the bath! I voted "other."

For the record, I would definitely vote that peeing while taking a bath is GROSS. Good call; I hadn't thought of that distinction. ?
Out of the 4 people currently in my house I'm the only one that is willing to admit to peeing in the shower. To me a drain is a drain, there are bacteria already on the floor of the shower anyway and pee is sterile so its no biggy. The only "bathroom encounter" that really gets me is knowing that bacteria from feces travels up to 20 feet away from the toilet when you flush. Try using toilet paper (or your toothbrush for that matter) ever again...
One time when we were at my parent's house I was talking to her in her bathroom while she put make up on and my dog followed us up there. My dog walked into my parent's shower, squatted and peed. HILARIOUS!!! My mom and I died laughing. Then my mom got all upset with my dad saying he must pee in the shower and that is why my dog peed in there as she must have smelled it.

I don't pee in the shower and actually think it is disgusting. DH does and it ticks me off!!! He doesn't "bath" in the shower and doesn't have to put his bottom or back on the tub that he just peed on. I HATE IT!!
And I never have to pee in the shower bc I pee BEFORE i get in...according to some i am "wasteful". Oh, well!
Re: Clicky poll: Peeing in the shower?

I've always peed in the shower, it isn't a big deal. I could see it if:
A. people didn't clean their tubs
B. pee wasn't sterile
C. you weren't cleaning yourself
Even if I go before I get in I have to pee when the hot water hits.
