So, you've had a baby... and now sneezing comes with side-effects. Welcome to the Leaky Club. There's no membership card, no WhatsApp group, just a bunch of us mums quietly crossing our legs in Tesco and pretending everything's fine. Spoiler: it's not fine - but it can get better.
Your Leaky Secret is the no-shame, laugh-out-loud survival guide to pelvic floors, postpartum recovery, and all the taboo "admin" nobody warned you about. From the first terrifying sneeze and trampoline disasters, to awkward GP appointments, panic-googling at midnight, and the gadget graveyard in your bathroom drawer - this book says what everyone else is too embarrassed to.
Inside you'll find:
Honest, funny stories about life with a leaky pelvic floor (yes, even the ones that happen at soft play).
What really works (and what's a waste of money) when it comes to Kegels, physio, and those 200 "magic" devices.
The secret shopping list of pads, pants, pessaries and lube nobody talks about.
Realistic rehab plans that actually fit between the school run and bedtime.
The emotional side of leaks - because it's not just physical, it chips away at your confidence too.
If you've ever crossed your legs mid-sneeze, avoided trampolines like they're nuclear hazards, or whispered "do you ever...?" to a friend over wine, this book is for you. It's part guide, part confessional, part group therapy with biscuits.
You're not broken. You're not alone. And you don't need to suffer in silence. Your Leaky Secret is proof that recovery is possible - and it's a lot less scary when we laugh about it together.
Perfect for mums, women in perimenopause, or anyone who's ever Googled "why do I wee when I cough?" at 2 a.m.
