I am 19 weeks preggie and just over the past week I have started going to the toilet at night every 3 hours and during the day at least every 15 mins. It is becoming very frustrating. The doctor has tested me for all sorts of stuff but can't find anything wrong. Is anyone else having this problelm???

| Yup for at night. I get up between 3-6 times a night. During the day its not as bad as you are describing |

Baby could be pressing on the nerve to your bladder... I have found with this pg I need to go so often and its very little coming out. I am putting it down to a great big head pushing on something!
I am going up to 6 times a night now and I dont know how many times a day during the day... I dont keep count... -------------

This started a couple of weeks ago for me, my girl was breech now she's cephalic position and that's causing loads of fun with my bladder. Same as mel having her head down wards is causing everything to get a bit cramped.
Sorry but there doesn't seem to much you can do about it either. ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">   [/url] Angel June 2012 |

I went about 5-6 times a night from early on, during the day I'd find I went a lot too.. but I would think about it more and I think that's a lot of the reason I went so much, it was always on my mind!!
I would get a hand or a foot pressing on my bladder a lot too, quite severely and that would always have me running to the loo again! Just one of those things I guess, it was annoying but if you've gotta go.. you've gotta go!  ------------- http://lilypie.com">

Yep I'm 18 wks and it's all happening here too. Recently I had a bus ride with 2-hourly stops and was really needing to go each time! I regularly need to urinate in the night but only once. Your baby is probably pressing low on your bladder and/or your sleep is light so you're more aware of pressures at night.
(Wanna take on my four eldest during the day? Then you'll sleep deeply at night!  )-------------  |

I don't go as often as you during the day but sometimes i do go and not alot comes out.
During the night i can be going hourly  Its a pain, but it'll be over soon and i'll have a great reason to be getting no sleep! ------------- J - born 26th April 2008 and L - born 3rd Sept 2010 http://alterna-tickers.com">
