Bladder prolapse at 16 m pp

Did anyone else discover their prolapse this late postpartum? I feel so worried and upset about it. I went to my OB at 6 weeks and complained about having stress incontinence and she dismissed me. I wish she would have referred me to PT then. Now I have a bulge in my vagina and I’m scared it’s too late to fix with just PT.

Yes I did. I’ve only just discovered mine and my boy is 16 months this month. I’m also very upset by it! Been referred to physio but not been given an appt yet so I’m looking at going private x

Ugh It’s so frustrating. How did you discover yours? I was in the shower and felt something. I have a Pt apt scheduled next month. Also hoping to find some sort of support device (like a pessary) to help support. I just feel so sad that I have this “damage” from having a baby. I’m feeling alone because none of my friends have gone through this

I completely understand what you mean, I feel so deflated that my body is this way after just one baby and I don’t know anyone personally who has anything similar either. I think I will probably have a pessary fitted aswell! And I didn’t notice mine until I looked in the mirror after being uncomfortable down there. If I didn’t look then I’d be none the wiser! Please feel free to give me a message if you want to chat. You are not alone in feeling like this x

@Lucy hey, how did you get on with your prolapse? Did you manage to make progress? I think I’ve prolapsed and I’m so worried
