I don't know what to do

So I'm 39+1 today, and I just noticed that I kinda smell like I've peed myself. I know I haven't bc I go to the bathroom on time and everything. What is going on? I'm embarrassed. Is my bladder leaking? Is that what's going on? Like it's to the point where I'm embarrassed to even be around my husband. I change my underwear at least 4 times a day. How can I make this stop? Someone, please help me.

the baby is pushing down on your bladder constantly since they are probably head down and engaged. it’s totally normal though and happens oftentimes. it’s very annoying though :/

@Rachel ok 😅. I just started getting very self conscious about it and didn't know if it was normal or not. Thank you!

Some women’s pelvic floor is weaker than others. I had some incontinence issues after my first birth. But there are lots of exercises that can help make it so you don’t leak anymore after birth. If you still struggle with it you can always see a pelvic health physical therapist which are absolutely incredible for anything post partum. Whether it’s leaking, or pain during sex, or pretty much anything that feels wrong down there they can probably help you.

I’d also make sure you aren’t leaking amniotic fluid
