I think I have postpartum incontinence . I am still somewhat spotting just enough to use a panty liner but I also have a clear liquid coming out. I am not 100% sure it is urine though but I am thinking that is what it is since I have no idea what other kind of clear fluid it could be. It just randomly happens and not neccesarily when I laugh, sneeze, or cough. If it is pp incontinence though I can't say I am surprised from how hard and long I pushed plus how insanely swollen everything was because of it all.
Anyone else dealing with something like this?
23 and peeing myself. Damn.
Re: Whelp...peeing yourself sucks.
I didn't even know what that was and had to google it. I am going to go with lochia instead of pee. Makes me feel so much happier
hahaha.
Seriously, the midwife I talked to the morning after delivery (my OB was out-of-town) said lochia becomes white and then clear. So hopefully it's just that!
Good call. I'm right there with ya.
I guess I missed the lochia memo!
No one really told me what to expect for pp bleeding though so that probably is why.
hahahahahahahah!! You haven't mastered the one-handed bathroom trick? Baby in one arm, use the other to unbutton pants, pull both knickers and pants down, pee, rip off TP and wipe. Pull up knickers and pants. Don't worry about buttoning, that's overrated. Rinse, rub on your soap bar, use the sink to scrub your hand, then dry and done. Takes me 2 min to pee with a baby on my arm now!
Positive of this is you only have one hand to wash!!
Although, not sure how well I could do that nursing...I am sure at one point I would end up ripping LO off my nipple, ouch.
