Have you ever peed in your car?

Saw a super divided post on instagram where a mom said “one thing I was not prepared for in motherhood was how often I’d pee in a cup in my car”. I’m not ashamed to admit it - I have done this. I was making a long haul trip alone with a one year old while heavily pregnant, it was 11pm, they were asleep and I was in the middle of nowhere… with no good options in sight. I grabbed two diapers and put them in a grocery bag and did what I needed to do. Truly a new low for me. But yes I have done it again when absolutely necessary. The comments on this post made this sound like the worst thing in the world and only a horribly disgusting person would do this so I’m curious have you done something similar? Would you?

I have never thought to do this lol, I’d personally just pull over and pee in a bush. Which I’ve never done at night but during the day yes LOL

When i worked delivery in a very rural area I've had to use a cup.to pee in the back of my truck bc there wasn't anywhere to go but never in my car

I did this all the time I drive trucks over the road up to 34 weeks pregnant

I keep a potty in the car for long trips with my kid and I have peed in it in a few occasions when super desperate

In a situation like yours I would. Those late pregnancy potty breaks are essential 😅 also not a bad idea to pee on some diapers lol. I have never peed in my car or outdoors since I was a child though

I’ve peed outside plenty of times pre and during pregnancy, never in a cup though

It’s liberating, if men can pee outside freely why can’t we lol

While I have never done it, in the situation you are describing, I probably would have too 🤷‍♀️ I'm not putting my life at risk to stop at some sketchy place to pee. Diapers are versatile 😂 one time I was at swim lessons with my son and my period started (I have PCOS so I never know when it's coming) and was unprepared 🫠 so I took one of his diapers and used the little straps to hook it around my underwear like a pad until I got home 😂😂

@KayLee omg yes! I was out hiking and there was literally no bathrooms so I just walked a little off the trail and went 🤷‍♀️

@Grace lol I live for these moments🤣 like 9 times out of 10 if I’m in a situation where I would have to go out of my way to find an indoor bathroom or go outside, I’m going outside 😂😂 I keep wipes on me always

Girl no. One bump is all it takes. 😩 I’d rather pee in a bush.

Ive never been pregnant. But ive peed into a cup in the car. L.A traffic is no joke. Its not like you can just exit the freeway.

I have an empty chai cup in my holder for that reason. The amount of times I’m busting when I just get somewhere or just about to leave 😵‍💫 the roads are too busy here to “pee in a bush” I live in the subs and go into city twice a week on the freeway lol there’s no “bush”

I've never done this. I've peed beside the car lmaooo I actually had my husband pull over in the back of a parking lot that had fields all around it and of course as I finish peeing I stand up and someone drives by and gives me a thumbs up laughing at me lmaaao
