Embarrassing Question

[Jen133]

Hey ladies!!! Every time I cough, sneeze or even laugh I tend to wet my pants a little lol!! Is this normal, I'm 14 weeks and the further I go along more comes out LMAO!!!.   Is it ok or do I have a problem????

HELP!!!

Oh yes.... I had the same thing, except my incontinence didn't start until about 28 weeks. Every time I coughed, sneezed, laughed.... breathed... lol! It is very normal, and aside from being annoying and embarressing it's usually nothing to worry about. It's probably the way your baby is positioned thats putting pressure on your bladder. Unfortunately it'll most likely remain or get worse later in your pregnancy, but it's just parr for the course. Go pee as often as possible, even when you don't feel like you have to go. The good news is that it goes away after delivery for the vast majority of women.

Thanks!!! I would defitnetly mention it to my doctor.  Sometimes I don't even sneeze and I feel something coming out.

I am having the same problem when I cough or sneeze and I am 30 weeks. I would mention to Dr. since you are still pretty early, but I think it is normal!

I think it is normal - but you may want to mention it at your next doctor's visit - especially if it is excessive.  I believe that it was at this point when I dribbled on myself when I would sneeze and it totally shocked me.  Now I am 36 weeks and this happens much more frequently (maybe about 2 times a day).  I am still controling my bladder - I just have leakage hear and there.  Definitely mention it to your OB - especially if it bothers you and wear panty liners.
