urinary incontinence

I totally get it, this happened to me after my second child and it's more common than you'd think. Definitely worth bringing up with your gynae or even starting with the polyclinic, they can refer you if needed and there are actually quite a bit of options from pelvic floor exercises to other treatments depending on what's going on. In the meantime, pelvic floor exercises (kegels) really do help and lots of mums find them make a real difference once you get into the habit. Don't feel shy about asking for help because doctors see this all the time and they know how to manage it properly.

leaking when coughing or exercising can be a sign of stress urinary incontinence, so it’s worth getting checked. i had the same issue with leaks whenever i coughed, sneezed or worked out, and was diagnosed with stress urinary incontinence. Dr Wei-Wei-Wee Stekly guided me through pelvic floor exercises, and the improvement gave me much more confidence in daily life. 🌸
