So am 11 days postpartum (med free vaginal delivery, no interventions), and 30 minutes ago, for the second time since my delivery, I completely peed myself. Not a little leak, or peeing while coughing. Like open the floodgates peed myself.

During this second pregnancy I occasionally leaked while coughing or sneezing (don't recall this happening during my first pregnancy). After my first vaginal delivery, I had minor incontinence issues for a few weeks postpartum, where I would pee a little in my pad before I could make it to the bathroom. But nothing like this.

Both times I barely felt like I was holding in any pee, and I think I had my hands under running water.

Please tell me this is normal and will resolve itself (I plan on starting kegels immediately).
