I have heard all about the "oopsy" bodily functions that can happen beyond your control during pregnancy, but I had my first experience a couple of days ago. I came home for lunch( I only live a few blocks away from work). I am 13 weeks and morning sickness has seemed to be extra horrible this last week. I put my lunch in the microwave and suddenly had to pee really bad, so I went into the restroom. For some reason bathroom "smells" even clean bathrooms are a trigger for my nausea so upon entering I began to gag. A lot of times I just gag so I was working thru it trying to keep from vomiting but it didn't work. I ended up puking and my stomach was empty so I puked a lot of bile and then dry heaved for a while. When it finally let up I suddenly realized I had also peed my pants!! I guess my stomach muscles were contracting so hard it just came out and I didn't even realize it! I ended up having to change clothes and was late back to work. Even though I was home alone I still felt a little embarrassed. So glad I wasn't at work or somewhere else when that happened. In hindsight it is a little funny just wasn't expecting to pee my pants this early in the game. Definitely a lesson learned: expect the unexpected! Just though I would share!
What a disaster! Glad you were home for that. I don't think my husband would let me live that down if he witnessed it. Maybe it is good you were home alone. So sorry that happened to you but it is pretty funny.
This pregnancy I learned to just sit on dd's potty chair while puking. I peed my pants every.single.time. Even if I'd just peed, which I would have thought was impossible. I'm sorry you had to join the club:(
That sucks but I can totally relate. I 've had a wicked cough for a month now (guess 2nd tri isn 't my honeymoon period ) and if I cough too hard I pee a little . Wasn't expecting the loss of bladder control so soon.
Happened to me too! Don't worry. But I do try to make sure I'm not making too much force when I vomit...the doctor told me that too much bearing down is not safe. It's hard to not do that...but I try. hope you feel better

This totally happenednto me at about 11 weeks but dh WAS home and i asked him to get me some new pants and he proceeded to laugh uncontrolably at me.... bastard. Atbleast you were alone! I'm still sorry it happened to you though!
Yikes!!! I haven't had that one happen to me yet ... but at the risk of embarassing myself, I thought I'd let you know one of my own .....
TMI ahead warning.
DH and I have shower sex a lot. It's probably as risque as we get, seeing as my husband is very much the "always in the bed and limited positions" type of guy. I always pee before I get in the shower, just in case he joins me. So when we went to "get started" I relaxed my muscles and peed on him a little when he was putting it in. I don't think he realized it because, obviously, everything in the shower was wet. But it makes me super nervous that something similar is going to happen somewhere OTHER than the shower. ::sigh::
SMH. I peed on my husband.

Yep, it will just get worse when you have a kid. Every sneeze you best be crossing your legs! Haha
Not necessarily. I have yet to sniss, including the entire pregnancy with DS. I don't do kegels either. I think it's something that's not uncommon but not necessarily everyone has it kinda thing.
Congrats to my GP Sister from another mister Bruinsbabe!!
Glad to know I'm not the only one this has happened to. I definitely can laugh about it but at the same time am terrified that something will happen in public. I'm 13 weeks and still very much having morning noon and night sickness and it scares me to think what is yet to come.
Mcselfoneal.... That sucks! At least he didn't notice! Btw I am terrified something like that is going to happen during sex. I keep worrying about puking on him or passing gas or peeing! Ugh... Pregnancy! I think it must be preparing us to be prepared for anything as a parent. Kids are so unpredictable and so is pregnancy.
