Boy, I tell you, nothing sobers you up like visible urine pouring down your leg. So not fair.
Interestingly, I went to a grand rounds a few years ago at the local medical school that was put on by midwives. They actually talked about studies that showed women with a history of surgical birth had higher rates of urine incontinent issues. Totally goes against mainstream thought that vaginal delivery is what messes with us down there!
