Working out - bladder anyone? embarassing issue

So at 7 weeks I went to a boot camp class that was too intense for me.  I was too out of breath etc but the major issue I had was the running up and down hill I felt like my water broke again!  I am so nervous now to do any other exercise class that requires jumping jacks, running etc for fear of peeing my pants.  I know kegels are supposed to help this but its just not there yet.... I want to share low impact workout but am hestiant with this issue!

    Yep, this is a huge issue.  It has been getting better for me- so there is hope :)  I'm really bad at doing my kegels, but have been trying to do them when I think of it.  Also- this may be TMI, but if you and your SO have sex it can help because you will tighten those muscles which is a pretty good workout for that area.  That was a suggestion that my best friend had for me- and honestly, I think it is working and DH is super happy to help me work out :) 

    I'm sure that you're already doing this, but could you wear a panty liner or pad while your working out?  And make sure you pee right before you get moving?

    I hope this gets better for you soon!  GL!

    Me to I'm almost 4 weeks out and I did the 30DS dvd and sprung a leak. It's a little gross but it happened with my DD#1 and it got better, just takes a little while. Kegels and panty liners, going before a workout is a good idea to.

    I totally have this issue, too.  I feel great and tried to go for a jog a few days ago.  I had gone about one block when I peed my pants.  (I had a pad on and so it wasn't the humiliating disaster it could have been, but it was still a fail.)  Anyway, I'm hoping kegels and time will solve the problem.  Blah.

    Check out this blog.  She specialized in women's pelvic floors and she will rock your world when it comes to regaining and strengthening pelvic floor function.  I ended up with a small prolapse after pushing for four hour and was told I would just have to live with a leaky bladder for the rest of my life.  But this lady says otherwise and I am telling you, after following her blog and doing what she says, I am leaking far less often.
