LOL

From this page in the pregnancy section of this website:

Pelvic floor exercises
Lean forward after you have gone to the toilet (to prevent using the buttock muscles). On the out breath clench the muscles from your anus to your vagina through to where you urinate. It should be a similar sensation as if you are trying to hold something inside your vagina, such as a tampon. There should be no evidence on the outside of your body that you are doing anything, hence no muscles should be tensing on the outside of your body...
Never stop doing pelvic floor exercises, make them a life time commitment!


Thanks for reminding me to do some

Or try to stop yourself urinating mid-stream.
