I had a baby 10 months ago. Within the past 2 month everytime I take a bath water goes into my vagina. When I sit up it gushes out. What would cause it and is there anything I can do to stop it from happening other than taking a shower?

Was the baby born vaginally? If so, that's probably happening because the baby stretched it out down there. It's not as closed as it used to be so the water is able to go in.

Its actually normal, a lot of women who have not had children experience this.
When you sit or move the walls of your vagina can move and separate (generally theyre always touching, creating a fairly water proof seal), allowing a small amount of bath water to get in. Standing up causes it to come back out.
Its not a condition or an issue. Although if you have a sensitive system, or skin, certain bath salts and soaks might disrupt your pH and can lead to a yeast infection. But its not common, and not something to worry about unless you get them regularly anyway.
it takes time, but the more time that goes by after giving birth the vagina and uterus continue to shrink back to their pre-baby size. Although they will never be exactly the same, they get pretty darn close as the months and even years, pass. It could be that it will become less common as time goes by.

Sorry but if you are taking a bath and move around in the tub you will get water up there.It will come out and you are fine. This has nothing to do with having a baby either. It just happens. Good luck.

i had two c-sections and never has this ever happened to me. is that even safe? isn't that water dirty after bathing in it? maybe you should just stick to showers. also try working out your vaginal muscles.
