Patient's question:
Frequency of urination is severe, and every time the child feels it is slowly sinking down.Doctor's answer:
This is determined by the position of the uterus. The uterus is located in the center of the pelvic cavity, with the bladder in front and the rectum behind it. When the uterus enlarges, it compresses the bladder, reducing its capacity and causing increased frequency of urination. Typically, urinary frequency will cease a few days after delivery, although urine output may still be high in the initial days. This is mainly because the body needs to eliminate excess fluids.
