2nd degree tear and sometimes pee my pants??

Just like the title says, when my bladder is full sometimes I've been peeing my pants and soaking my pad! I'm about 5 days pp and the midwives didn't warn me about this symptom so I'm wondering if this is normal and will resolve on its own in a few days? Anyone have any experience with this??

Me! This was exactly me! I had to get to the restroom immediately. It got better though. I am two weeks postpartum now.

@Andree how long did yours take to get better? It's more an annoyance than anything else but would love one less thing to worry about!

This was me as well I’m over 2 weeks and the pain has subsided as well as the peeing a little when I got up to use the bathroom, but I’m also going to see a pelvic floor specialist anyway

Pretty normal. I’d suggest looking into pelvic floor therapy though. It tends to get worse with each pregnancy.

It took me about a week and a half. It has been much better the last three days or so, but it definitely sucked 😂

Day out after c section

Hey,
I had an emergency c section 1 week ago I obviously don't want a day out right now but I have things booked for the Easter holidays so in 2 weeks. I was just wondering if I will be overdoing it if I have a day out then or will I be ok? I would still take it as easy as I could. When did everyone feel good enough to go out?

Reduced Movements

Has anyone else gone in for monitoring for reduced movements and as soon as you arrive at triage the baby starts moving and the CTG is normal? It makes me feel like I am over reacting.

Newborn stage

Is anyone tired of doing the same thing everyday and being on a 2-3 hour schedule? It’s the same everyday and I feel like I’m losing my mind. It’s making me depressed even if I get out once a day. When does it get better? I feel like I’m just waiting for the next stage where it’s not just sitting around all day.
