Peeing!

these may, or may not, be useful to you

I don't know what the benefit of them is though.

Is there a little flap underneath??

...no one has written a review...

Ah yes. "The fitted shorts have a discreet fly, and loop hole to pull, so you can quickly, and easily relieve yourself."

And they are the same colour as the whizz, so supposedly more "discreet".

Atqui, so my oxybutin patches, which I've used for years to help me stay dry, could be affecting my memory. Oh dear, I knew it wasn't as good as it used to be, occasionally forgetting perfectly ordinary words but hadn't thought it was caused by anything other than age. What a choice!

I wish I could sew. I'd invent a pair of leggings with a Shewee flap on...

..only half joking.

Well, I'd buy them. Dilemma; leggings are great for key in door syndrome [no zips and buttons to hold you up] but awful for using gadgets with. When we were young and used to drive round Europe I found that wearing long skirts were the best thing to wear. Obviously no good in the car but good for crouching in hedgerows.

I agree with that. So long as you can get up again once crouched. There's the rub these days.

Just had a practice. Agree that it's impossible to not dribble . Still better than what could have happened to the S.O's car the other week though. Has anyone tried the Whizz yet?

Right someone please explain how a sheewee can actually work properly.
Supposing you are out and about and wearing trousers. You go behind the bush, you have to pull down your trousers and pants far enough to get the device in place so you can pee into it.

How then how would you stop the pee from then dribbling down onto your trousers and shoes. Like pouring any liquid out of a jug if you don't pour it fast enough it trickles down the side of the device. Even if you can still crouch down you have to get your pants up by your knees or they will get wet.

It's the thought that female anatomy is not geared up to allow women to project the stream of pee away from your body as most men do.
Little boys practice such things early in life seeing who can pee up the wall the highest.

I am one of the lucky ones who can still crouch down for a pee.

I've not progressed to that level yet...I'll let you know when I do.

I haven't tried them but there's

TravelJane

I've seen the TravelJohn in action when with a male patient; obviously it's always easier for the boys!

You would need to stand and pull pants down at least a few inches but no need to squat. Unroll the bag which the pink thing is at the top of, when you pee into it the crystals turn into a solid gel so there's no urine to spill. You seal the top and put into bin.

I do honestly feel sorry for you ladies, what is so easy for us (apart from nettles) is so difficult for you.

Or this

Travelcommode

Wouldn't fit your handbag!

But it 'doubles up as a comfortable chair'; what's not to like...

...please tell me that the Sheewee knickers that keep popping up on my Facebook page are ONLY on my Facebook page and I haven't made them go 'public' ...

Oh what a laugh I've had!

Hope your bladder is holding up to all that laughing, rascal!

I'm coming a bit late to the thread, which has moved on to shewees etc.
I saw a gynaecologist about Irritable bladder, and she told me to take my tablet (vesicare) at night rather than in the morning. I seems to be much more effective that way.
Also she put me on vagifem pessaries.
It's not perfect, and I still wear a pant liner, but its an awful lot better than it was!

I think that, of all the stuff I've recently bought the Peebol is going to be that thing that is the most useful. I've got a hospital appointment next week so hope that they can then prescribe me vagifem or something like that.Problem is, I have to go there with a full bladder ...

Oh gettingonabit yes it holds out good now thankfully! I had two problems one was sorted by an op for a prolaps. I am prescribed Regurin for the other problem.So things are holding out now! I have a sheewee and have tried it out in the bathroom without much success! It seemed to wet the leg of my trousers! The zip in my jeans isn't long enough so they need to be at my feet! I wanted to be able to just slip it in and a leak accomplished. So not tried it out as looks like I'll have to bare all! Oh! I'm away to have another read at all the posts on this subject so I can have another good laugh!

rascal Your tests seem to confirm what I thought would be the problem.

Yes definitely a problem! Would like to know if anyone can use a sheewee without having to take everything down in the nether region!

Tegan do not attempt to arrive at the hospital with a full bladder! Physically you will find it difficult and the idea will cause you stress.

Generally, the bladder's capacity is 600 - 800mls, with the urge to urinate at around 200mls.

I would drink normally at home so you are well hydrated, pass urine before you leave, and arrive at the hospital say 45 minutes early. Take a bottle of water and drink about 500mls - assuming you have normal kidneys, urine is constantly entering the bladder so there'll be some there already.

Worth checking on arrival what time you are likely to be seen - rare to be seen right on time.

Very helpful info Riverwalk I will remember this for the future.
