Urinary incontinence is incredibly prevalent among new moms,affecting at least 7 million women in the U.S."Even a seemingly uneventful pregnancy and delivery can change urinary control for up to 50 percent of women.New moms who delivered vaginally are more likely to have urinary incontinence one year postpartum,compared to women who had C-sections,says a new study published in Obstetrics&Gynecology.

What is the cause of urinary incontinence after childbirth?

The bladder is like a balloon,with a stubby knob at the end called the urethra.Normally,the bladder relaxes to accommodate urine as it fills.The fuller it gets,the more the sphincter muscle around the urethra squeezes to keep the urine contained.During delivery,the ligaments and muscles that support the bladder and urethra are stretched.In addition,there is a change in some of the enzymes and hormones that make ligaments elastic.Because the muscles and ligaments are weakened,urine may leak out,especially when a woman coughs,laughs,exercises,sneezes,or lifts something.These are all activities that physically stress the bladder,hence the name stress incontinence.

What are the types of urinary incontinence?

Incontinence comes in two varieties:stress and urge.If you leak when you forcefully laugh,sneeze,cough,run,jump or lift weights,you have stress incontinence.It's really common in the third trimester because of the pressure of the uterus on the bladder.Compounding the problem are the hormones that make your tissues and joints more elastic for delivery:They also reduce bladder support,allowing urine to leak.
