Yearning for Younger Years

Bladder where art thou?  (Just an FYI - if you don't like bladder talk - X out of this screen immediately!)


Why can I not sneeze without holding my crotch and crossing my legs at the same time?  (Mind you I'm one of those at least 3 sneezes in a row kind of girls!)

Why can I no longer jump for fear of wetting myself?  I'd love to see a trampoline again, but what would happen?

Why do I have to worry about laughing too hard with my friends if I need to pee?


Why must my beautiful, precious babies have ruined my bladder for life?


I was 23 when it struck.  I brought this gorgeous 7 pound 12 ouncer home with me and said goodbye to my bladder.  She slightly ruined my ability to hold my urine.


But I believe it was this hunky chunk is the one that really did it to me.


All 8 pounds 11 ounces of sweet Ma obsessed son-shine :)


So I ponder, if I had a 3rd child (which gauging the size of my kids and my personal birth weight of 9 pounds 15 ounces - I really may deliver quite the 9+ pound chunk) would I be forced to wear a Poise pad daily?

  1. Annie, Annie...where are you? You haven't visited in days and I miss your sunshine! Can you imagine what Octomom's bladder must be like or Kate Gosselin for that matter. I wonder if she sprinkles while she's dancing....LOL!

    Hugs,
    LeAnn:)
    P.S. Still waiting for your mom's blog to appear:)

  4. LOL!!! Well, I had #3 almost 4 years ago, and lemme tell ya, I have NO BLADDER FUNCTION!! Honestly, she killed it. I can't fart without peeing my pants these days. Sad, so sad...

  5. I have scheduled the surgery twice to fix this and twice cancelled- because you can't lift anything for 6 weeks- and that's my life- dragging stuff around....I can so relate.

  6. Hey honey, I am WAY older than you and have had 3 kids and this wasn't/isn't a problem. Talk with your doctor because this isn't something you should live with.
    Kegel exercises do help, I did them religiously. I am crossing my fingers for you and some of the other ladies here.Good luck!

  7. I just turned 45 yesterday and I have been dealing with this same problems since my first daughter born in 1988. I have finally made arragements to have this problem taken care of surgically. The surgery is a same day release deal and seems very easy and effective. Check it out with your doctor, I hear you though, nothing is the worst than having wet drawers!
