[quote=Anonymous]Pelvic floor PT! Don't just start doing kegels - it's possible you have an overactive pelvic floor, and kegels would make it worse.

Leaking is common, but it is not "normal." We are not supposed to just lose bladder control after a certain age or number of babies. You definitely do need help.

I would honestly stop with the running for now. You probably have some postural issues, weak glutes, tight hip flexors, maybe overactive inner thighs that are contributing to your leakage, and running is probably making them worse. I know it can be hard to accept that when you're a person that is "in good shape," but it happened to me, too.

I do mommastrong.com. It's a good workout that is specifically made to be healthy for your pelvic floor. There's a lot of good info that could help you, including a special incontinence course. They are only 15 min workouts, but you can double them up if you want, and then walk or do other things if that's still not enough exericse for you.[/quote]
