I would definitely contact a doctor x

I would speak to a GP just to get the ball rolling for a woman’s health physio referral as these things take time! But, it’s also very normal to experience some incontinence after birth so don’t worry! I get the anxiety though :( I had to literally run to the toilet every time I needed to go after having my LG. Things went back to normal pretty quick, it will get better with time, you’re only 5 days pp x

Speak to someone ,

Im 15months pp and I still do this most days, I'm currently waiting to be seen by my hospital for help

Definitely see a doctor. I had urinary incontinence for a few weeks after giving birth. Got referred to Women's Health Physio but still waiting to be seen 10 months later. Thankfully mine did just resolve but definitely get it seen to!

I had this, I no longer had the sensation of needing to wee so wouldn’t go to the loo for ages and then stand up and wee. I would make sure I went for a wee every couple of hours and then when I was about ten days pp it no longer happened!

@Gabrielle that was exactly me! Totally lost the urge and sensation then I guess it just came back.

Wow I’m scared how common this is! Called today as not feeling great anywya they said ring back tomorrow, it’s really bad I had to get my baby checked today I wore a huge adult diaper and it just kept coming even tho I used the loo, I was so embarrassed and felt so uncomfortable! I hate this:( and I had to have an episiotomy during my birth and its just so painful

@Gabrielle exactly that whne it first happened I had realised I’ve drank alot and feel no need to go! I did have to have a catheter inserted while in labour and an emergency one tried to be put in as well which I’m worried has caused damage

I had a catheter, in and out catheter and an episiotomy too. I had the random wees for the first ten days or so, after that for a few weeks I weed whenever I passed wind but now I’m 13 weeks pp and my wees are totally back to normal. Try not to worry, you’ll get there! Also my episiotomy healed within two weeks, the scar is barely visible now. It’s awful at the beginning but gets better every day 🤍
