*TMI*

Okay so, 8.5 months ago, I delivered a big ole 9lb 6oz baby with the help of forceps. I didn’t expect everything to go back to normal, but I expected everything to be close to normal. I have the whole “leaky bladder” thing, but I also have some other stuff going on. First off, I have a prolapse, I’m not getting anything done about it until I’m done having children, secondly, the prolapse is having an effect on my ability to go to the restroom... This issue is on and off, some days I’m not bothered by it, where as others, I am. I feel as though I can’t fully empty my bladder; When I sit down, I’m able to get a stream going... Once that stream stops, I still feel like there’s urine left in my bladder, so I have to do this weird “hands on my knees hovering over the toilet” kinda move and the rest will come out and I’ll feel fine. OTHER DAYS, I’ll do my normal bathroom routine, finish with the hover move, but where I feel fine after that on a good day, on a bad day (or two) I still feel like there’s urine in my bladder... Along with that on my bad days, even after ALL of the urine is obviously out, I have a stinging sensation, followed by the feeling that someone is pulling down on my urethra, causing me to feel like I have to go when I just did. (It isn’t a UTI because I feel fine every other day, this just happens 1 or 2 days out of a month) I also feel like I have to literally push the rest of the urine out. Like, I almost have to strain... Any of you mommas going through this? I just want to know I’m not alone...
