....I have talked to many women..runners & non
runners....lots of women have confessed that they wet their pants....some on a
daily basis....I guess some men do the same..some women experience a slow
trinkle..others a gush..... we all have had such a big laugh that it ran down
our leg.....or what about a cough or a sneeze that caused you to wet
yourself....everyone has done that...especially if you are a woman who has given
birth.....just know that if you are a pee-er when you run.....or do anything
that causes you to pee in your pants you are not alone.....there are many
pee-soul-sisters out there.
...so in my quest to tap into my inner runner I
have one constant concern..... why does this happen & what can I do about
it? Why is it that when I run I have to pee? Duh..I have to pee..Haha.....I
have had two babies....so lord knows my who who is all stretched out of
whack.....my pelvic muscles are not what they once were....age...being over
weight..tilted bladder...injured urethra....medications...are just some of the
reasons a chick maybe a pee-pee-pants on the run...
...so what do ya do.....firm up your pee
pee....KEGELS KEGELS KEGELS BABY! ......strengthen your pelvic musclles &
sphincter - bonus....your fella will thank you...wink wink.....I have to wonder
how many kegels I would have to do to return to my touched for the very first
time status...lol......you can do kegels anytime anywhere...driving your
car...at the Kroger...I am doing them right now!
...in the meanwhile till all that kegeling kicks
in..what do ya do when you are on a run & ya have to go??? ....do you wear
a pad or let it drip..I have talked to several chicks & most of them wear a
pad when they run or exercise.....I know its not so comfy..but the alternative
is having a wet soggy who who.....who wants a soggy who who...unless of course
its intentional..wink wink...hey if a US astronaut can drive across country in
a diaper...I can certainly wear a pad for a 5k.
...I did some research & the following are a
few things us chicks can do to before we run or exercise......empty the
bladder.....stay hydrated...sounds like an oxymoron to me..but if ya get
dehydrated your pee is more concentrated & it irritates the bladder &
makes ya wanna pee more....so keep your pee clear ladies! ...wear a
pad......not the regular period pads..ya need to get one of those Poise
pads....be sure to use a little Aquaphor to avoid the chaffing – eeek! Carry a
towel to sit on in the car on the way home...certainly don’t wanna smell up your
car.....most important...learn to laugh about it...you are not the only chick
out there who pees her pants.....are you sure those wet sweat marks on the
others runners clothes are sweat..........LOL
