Hi Emma, quick post as no time (I have a 2yo and a 4mo).

Have you seen a specialist physio, or in fact any physio about this? Most people who have pelvic floor problems try hard to do their exercises but their body isn't responding in the right way, and is actually bearing down when they intend to 'draw up and in'. A physio (or even a specialist continence nurse) can assess if you are managing to do them the correct way - that might help you at least know if you are doing some good with the exercises. Many women who have had children have some form of bladder control problem at some point in their life so you are not alone. It is the pregnancy and delivery rather than the bf which are responsible so I would encourage you to keep going at least until you have the 6 week check up and have got some other professional assistance.

Where do you live? I could try to find out about physios/continence services in your area for you if you want.

Al;l the best,
Fi
