Almost everyone has had to hold their urine until there's a place and time to use a bathroom. Some tricks people use:

  • distraction, don't think about it
  • avoid drinking anything more
  • crossing their legs
  • tightening their buttocks to try to "stop" the urge
  • wiggling; jiggling a leg
  • sidestepping, shifting from weight on one foot to the other foot
  • moving from leaning against a wall to standing without any support
  • bending slightly at the waist, and standing back up

However, the NUMBER ONE WAY IS -- Always go to the bathroom before going on or going into:

  • a car ride
  • a plane ride or trip
  • a class at school
  • a meeting
  • a movie
  • a play
  • a sports event
  • a doctor's appt.
  • etc.

It just means that you didn't pass all of the urine out of your bladder when you went to the bathroom and that your muscles are not strong enough to hold it in until the enxt time you go to the bathroom. There are exercises that can strngthen these muscles a little, but if it is not a huge problem, then either wear a panty-liner or try to make sure that you pass all of the urine while going to the bathroom.
