How long do you have to hold for? And how do you do it without holding your breath? Lol: I always forget to breathe hahaha

lol i know i keep holding my breath but your not ment too, think its around 5-8 seconds each time? I think it gets longer once there stronger

10 seconds should be the maximum but 5-8 seconds is good. Even that can be a challenge. If holding your breath helps then go ahead.
With practice I'm sure it'll get easier and you'll stop holding your breath.

If you start by just pulsing the muscles and remembering to breath, and then just hold for 2 seconds remembering to breath, and then so on and so one until you can get all 10 seconds in remembering to breath - that might help you out. I think breathing when you do your kegels is just like breathing when you are doing any other kind of resistance training. It is important

I can relate. I'm thinking about putting sticky notes around my house but then I couldn't invite anyone over without an explanation.

I read somewhere that coloured marbles or other small trinkets could be used as a reminder. Stick a few in your purse, or around the house. Nice and easy to explain if you already have kids, you could use bright coloured toys like this

My app reminds me (and even then it's not been a great couple of weeks) so I dunno if this would actually work or not.
