I can usually wait 2.5-3hrs between peeing (unless I get a severe urge) but sometimes get a strong urge to go after an hour or so. Is 1.5-2hrs to long to try and hold on?

Hello, according to the book “The Bathroom Key” for bladder retraining ….go every 30 mins for a week whether you have to go or not. Each week add another 30 mins until you reach 3-4 hours between going. It’s important to employ the urge suppression technique if one has to go before the assigned time. This is retraining the bladder to submit to you rather than you submitting to the bladder.
I just started this journey, start physical therapy for pelvic floor exercises in the next few weeks and have found that book to be a Godsend.
