I wish my Momma had given me that advice…would have saved me a lot of suffering! Great to see practical moms are still out there!

I just thought everyone knew this. If the daughter didn’t, then well done Mom for letting her know!

Ok…no one ever told me this. And I have to ask…Why? No need to hurry with your answer. Sex is a distant memory.

It flushes bacteria out after sex, so it prevents getting urinary tract infections

How could anyone *not* pee after sex? I always have to just because. Never knew I was flushing out bacteria all this time.

Before, surely? I never heard that you should pee after…

I’ve read many a time in magazine advice columns that ideally you should pee before AND after, for the same reason, flushing out bacteria. But I doubt the before one is nearly as beneficial…

i dont get the before? well i mean if you have to but i dont get “surely before.” After.. definitely. no backed up bacteria for me! you should, uhm, flush your system out after any sexual activity. stay clean!

Of course you would want to go before….having sex while having to pee even the slightest little tiny bit is just plain uncomfortable…. so go before, certainly go after, but surely don’t go durring…unless you’re into that…

After? What about during? Does during work?

UTI a.k.a. “newly wed’s disorder” …my mom informed me of this little fact AFTER it became a problem

13.  Embee - September 3, 2008 at 6:42 pm

Well, you learn something new everyday! Thanks, Mom! And all my mom told me was don’t refrigerate the bananas…

This is a definite overshare but…sometimes you know, during sex, when you’re nearly there, but you need to pee a bit and you’re a bit scared that if you let go then you might pee? That’s the case for going before, in my book anyway.

Fran - OMG I am so right there with you. I thought that was just me. I have to go before, I am terrified of peeing when I “let go.”

And yeah, I thought everyone know to pee after to avoid UTIs?

I needed the school nurse in college to tell me that. Wish I had a cool mom like this one.

Overshare alert!!! Sometimes when I have to pee just a little, it makes me ummm…finish all the better!
