Success after IF

Someone reassure me re ?urine leakage?

OK I KNOW everyone will say call the OB. Here's the thing- I was just there for my regular appt this morning & all checked out, including a cervical exam with closed cervix!

So I am lying on the couch and I get up to use the bathroom. I pee, do my thing, wipe even (I think I did before I stood up) and then stand up. Suddenly maybe 1-2 tsp of liquid go down my leg and a little tiny puddle (can't really call it that, a very large drop) on the floor. I stood there in shock & wiped it off my leg w/ TP & tried to smell it...nothing. Also tried w/ the floor- both were clear but of course I drink so much water my urine is always clear during the day.

Could this just be a weird post urination incontinence, maybe I just didn't empty well? Argh. I wouldve thought that if I had amniotic fluid leaking, it would have come out after I stood up from teh couch, not after I peed & stood up?

I'm lying back down & am going to stand up in about 15 min & see if anything happens...?

Re: Someone reassure me re ?urine leakage?

  • I haven't had any experience with this (yet)...but I would say it's probably urine.  You could always call your OB and see if there is anything you need to look out for though.

    I notice that when I go to the bathroom, if I sit there long enough, I can always get out a little more by shifting positions or even lifting my belly a bit.  Baby A's head is square on my bladder at all times though, so I think much of it has to do with her!  So it could be that one of your babies gave your bladder a good swift kick or sharp jab right when you stood up, I suppose.  I rolled over this morning to get my phone and had a little leakage as well. 

    Oh the joys!!!

  • You're probably right- both their heads are down there. I called anyway & I"m going to call them back after the lying down/standing back up test. I'm sure it's nothing, I just didn't want to not call & have it continue, my OB does surgeries on Fridays...
  • This is happening to me constantly -- almost every time I pee.  I don't know what the deal is.  I swear I'm done, I shift positions even to make sure and get those last drops out, I know I'm wiping... and then inevitably urine on the floor or on my leg.  Gaaa-ross.  My hands down least favorite pregnancy side effect ever.  I'm sure it's fine but if you're worried remember amniotic fluid should smell sweet, even my clear due to water pee does not smell sweet.

  • Thanks Gypsy :).

    No more leakage in the last half hour so I think we're going to just keep an eye on it, it was probably urine I'm sure!?
