I had my first miscarriage in Dec. 2007 and had to get a D and C, every since then, on occasion I would sneeze and leak a little pee. It didn't happen all the time, just some time.
Now that I am pregnant, it happens a lot more when I sneeze or cough. I have been kinda fighting a cold/cough all weekend and it's awful. I feel like a grown woman who wets her pants all the time now!! According to web.MD, this is normal. And some say it doesn't go away AFTER you give birth either! Oh my goodness....
Tomorrow I have an appt to see the high risk dr. Part of the 2x a week routine now that I'm on the insulin. Which by the way, I don't think is really doing much. If anything, it's not helping at all. My dinner numbers are still a little high, even though I'm eating some of the things I normally eat and have gotten lower numbers. I will call the Endo this week and see what he says.
I am hoping the coughing and leaking will go away soon. I have a busy work week.

I hope I don't have to wear Depends anytime soon!!

Just remember to do you kegels! That is the big thing.
LOL about the picture of Abbey!
I have had that happen a couple times, and know how uncomfortable it can be!!! Hopefully it doesnt continue after you have the baby! Love the pic of Abbey, what a cutie!
Thats strange about your insulin and sugar levels, I am interested in hearing what the doctor says. Do you always eat an equal amount of protein with your carbs/sugars? That's supposed to control the spike I thought?
Just another reason to do those Kegel exercises!
I hear you on this one but for me this has started since pregnancy...So this last trimester I have really been trying to do my kegels everyday and Pray that helps:)
Hannah are you doing your pelvic floor exercises? You have to do them anytime you remember, and if you don't remember do put post-it in places. It's very very important I've been told if I don't do them I may pay the price when I'm old (and I had a c-section!)
Such a cute picture in regards to the topic! Hang in there. Pregnancy sure brings lots of suprises. When I was pregnant with Lillian I woke up one night to have realized I had wet the bed. I was so embarrassed! Thankfully Christian was really sweet and helped me change the sheets!
LOL...yep, still happens after you have the baby - especially if you have him vaginally! Kegels are supposed to help so try doing them starting now!
Cracks me up!
I played a game with my students the other day where they had to think of questions to go with the "answer" given. Like Jeopardy, kind of. One of the answers was "Only when I sneeze" and I immediately thought, "Do you pee your pants?"
LOL her expression is adorable!
Maybe you could just wear a light pad or something? I have no idea, but peeing yourself when you sneeze doesn't really sound like fun to me at all. :( -hugs-
Yeah. Unfortunately you should get used to this ;-) Oh, and don't forget the hemorrhoids! Ah, good times (but so completely worth it!)
I'm loving reading about your progress. So excited for you!
I honestly think this is something we all experience as we get older. I had a horrible illness that included uncontrollable coughing with a lot of pressure in my chest and congestion. I found myself leaking almost every cough attack...and I've only been pregnant (unknown) until miscarriage very early on once and a never confirmed suspected miscarriage a few years before that...so I can imagine that adding a successful pregnancy to the mix this only gets worse and with age...now I understand what my mom was talking about all these years! :)
