Bladder sensation

Has anyone else lost the sensation in their bladder post partum? I am not able to feel when it is full. I am taking myself to wee every few hours and passing urine normally. It’s been 4 weeks since baby arrived via forceps

At first after birth I had this a few times where I can’t feel when I’m peeing and I’ve had it a few times since, and I had an episiotomy and forceps birth too

I had a c section and this was definitely me. I wouldn't realise until in agony

I had forceps and a lot of tears im 3 weeks post partum and literally just been to see the gynaecologist just now and mentioned this to her as im the same, she said it’s completely normal and can take months for the sensation to come back x

Yes same for me, i have no bladder sensation 3 wks pp. I ultimately had an emergency c-section as labour stalled, but the physio I spoke to thinks my bladder became distended during a long active labour. My midwife referred me to a physio and I’m using the Squeezy app to build strength in my pelvic floor

Yes I’m the same. I just try and go to the toilet every few hours to empty it as I can’t feel if it’s full or even if I need a wee or not 🤷‍♀️. I also don’t feel if I’m hungry or full up 🤷‍♀️ very weird!
