C-sections

Numb bladder?

I had a CS Monday. Almost a week later I can't tell when I have to pee. When I go I pee a lot. This is a weird sensation because I felt like I had to pee ALL the time when I was pregnant. It doesn't hurt when I go its just hard to tell when I need to. I just sorta time it and drink lots if water.
Anyone else experience this?
When will the feeling return?

    Yes! It took me a few months after my section to feel the sensation to pee.

  • I think a lot has to do with the catheter. It took me about 3 weeks to have normal sensation.

  • Agree about the catheter. Mine was in for over 30 hours and it took several weeks to get the full feeling back in my bladder.
  • Thank god!! I went to my dr on Tuesday. She wanted to put ANOTHER catheter in me so that my "bladder wouldn't hyper extend and cause permeant damage" I refused. And cried. I cried a lot. And I talked her into allowing measuring and recording my pee amounts to make sure I wasn't holding more than 500cc of urine. I have yet to collect over 300cc so I'm glad I didn't let her out another cath in because I'm pretty sure that's what caused the problem too! Thank you ladies!!
  • I had the same problem! I thought I was the only one, 3 months pp much better now
