I doubt a bladder would burst before a person pee'd their pants. Unless you have a blockage of some sort and you can't pee, don't worry about your bladder bursting...

Don't know how I missed this thread. Most nights I get up at least once. I have a dropped bladder and that causes unnecessary
pressure. I go potty many times between breakfast and lunch but then in the afternoon, I don't go so much. But overnight hubby gets up as much or more than I. So I don't feel so bad about it. Usually around 2 or 3 a.m. we get up and go. Xena goes out
too, sometimes. I don't think getting up is that unusal for folks with a few years of living under their belts. I'm not on
any meds but then I don't go to the doctor. Hubby is on med for his high blood pressure. But all in all, we're in reasonably good health, I guess!

I've often wondered if all women passed the age of 50 have trouble with their pipeline. I heard girls at bowling complain about leakage, when they laugh you know. Others' have accidents.
I'll bet everybody's system wears down. I heard a vet say that
a dog's inners weaken with age. Bet humans are like, too.

I'm 52, not in menopause quite yet. Up 2-3 times at night. It's been going on for about 2 yrs. I read that it is part of the aging process & doc agrees after tests during annual physical. But I feel it interferes with sleep and that interferes with moods and health during the day. It is much, much better if I don't drink much water or anything in the evening. Cutting out caffein in the afternoons and evening really helps. So does watching salt intake. I really need that quality sleep and don't like to take anything.

You can always do your Kegels, or go the V-weights route... Anyone try the V-weights/balls?

What's a V weight?

Diapers anyone?

Nope! Hate the idea of diapers. I see too much of that in the nursing home. And I don't know what a V weight is either.
gims?
