    NaeNae- I was like that too, my morning sickness the second time was really bad at first and i would hurling that much i started to wee myself, sometimes id have to sit on the toilet and vomit in a bucket...

    I'm really considering seeing my GP about it, most the time its ok but sometimes its really bad. I find around AF its worse than other times.

    Mine WAS shocking... but better now, I saw a physio who told me I'd been doing the exercises all wrong. She likened it to trying to stretch my hamstring by wiggling my big toe.

    know there are physio's who specialise in women's health and deal with the pelvic floor but... alright, I just don't want physio on my vagina. The embarrassment factor of it all!!
    There's no de-pantsing!! ... the physio was aware of the embarrassment factor and seriously just taught me how to do the exercises correctly. It's effective and takes about 5 minutes to explain. I was wearing jeans and could feel what I was meant to be doing with my hands above the denim.There was no discussion of vaginas... but the muscles above your pelvic bone. I've had visits to my regular physio for running injuries that were more 'invasive'.

    Oh, and it's worth not peeing my pants every time I run now

    GET IT CHECKED OUT LADIES!!!!!

    My pelvic floor packed up and ran away from home somewhere around number 5
    Coughing or sneezing with a full bladder or jumping on a trampoline are terrifying thoughts.
    After my c-sections I feel I need to go until I am really full and need to go now! Not sure if that slowly gets better (it has been 19 mths)
