well I know that they can of you were in labor. not sure if they do it before hand. but I'm thinking if you can't pee at all. that that's the only resort. you should ask your OB right now. if you can. @bensonmomma
idk. but I came in for extreme cramping and I can't go pee. my bladder is so full and I can't pee no matter how hard I try. so we will see what they do. they said maybe you have a bladder Infection so drink more water. I said I can't drink anymore my bladder feels so full it hurts!!
