are you in pain? I think you should probably see your GP for this one. if water goes in (which of course it must), it must come out!

It's definitely worth speaking to your GP; have you had your post-natal check yet?

Although it's totally normal for your urine frequency to reduce after having a baby (due to the fact that the bladder once again has enough room to store a decent amount of urine!), only going once a day does seem very low.

You could have a mild urinary tract infection, but low urinary output can also be a sign of something more serious. Get it checked out, and hopefully you'll be back to normal soon!
