Im in my third trimester and even a little sneeze or cough makes me leak, its so embarrassing honestly. Cant go out comfortably anymore. Is this normal at this stage and what helps?
Pelvic floor exercises like Kegels are amazing for this, but only start them if your doctor has given you the go-ahead. I combined light walking with prenatal yoga stretches, which really helped control the leaks.
This can be quite uncomfortable, but please make sure it's just urine and not amniotic fluid leaking. If you feel a constant watery leak, please get checked by your doctor immediately to be absolutely safe.
Listen, don't feel embarrassed, almost every pregnant woman goes through this. Wear panty liners to stay clean and dry, and do pelvic floor exercises daily. But if it burns when you pee, tell your gynac immediately.
Don't worry, this is very natural as the baby grows. Just take care of your hygiene and try to do light pelvic exercises. It will get better after delivery.
Oh, this is so common during the third trimester because of the baby's weight! Doing regular Kegel exercises helped me strengthen my pelvic floor. It made a big difference during my normal delivery too.
It's just pressure from the baby, dear. Don't stop drinking water because of this, just empty your bladder completely every time you go. Use cotton panty liners and change them often to avoid infections.
