Stress urinary incontinence

Do other moms have a hard time holding their pee in while sneezing, laughing or coughing?

I’m 34 weeks pregnant and so tired of this :( I’ve been using pads to catch the spurts but I noticed that I’m starting to bleed because of those pads and possibly catch a yeast infection.

Wondering how you coped with this.

Practice your kegals, if not doing so already.
Try to get unfragranced pads, change pads often ( i was using panty liners changing every 2-3hrs even if no leakage).
Cotton underwear in bigger sizes to let air circulate help with the yeast infections.
Have you had the bleeding checked?

If you can try not to wear overnight, I found that helped when I had yeast infection, to let myself air wherever i could... use the disposable waterproof mats under you and get a waterproof mattress protector. Could put down a towel under you too if wanted.

I would go see a pelvic floor therapist. Doing things like kegals arent helpful. You need to see someone that can help your specific issue.

Chunky Baby

I’m 39 weeks pregnant with a chunky boy. He is my first baby and measuring big. I don’t have gestational diabetes (they tested me 4 times). His daddy is just massive and now little 5”5 me is carrying a 6”3 man’s huge child.

Obviously the doctors aren’t concerned because they would otherwise have induced me early or recommended a c section. But I am getting worried about squeezing out a 10Ib baby. (He was measuring 7Ib 6oz at 37 weeks).

Has anyone else had a big baby and a positive experience? Someone else told me that big babies arrive easier but I’m sure they were just trying to make me feel better!

GTT test result

How long does it take the GTT test result to come out? Had mine yesterday at Peterborough hospital and I’m so anxious because there has been glucose in my urine over the last few days and my finger prick was quite high.
