2nd Trimester

Bladder

Of course I use the bathroom at least once and hour! But this morning when I woke up, went to use the bathroom and I felt so much pressure to relieve my bladder. Then ended up going again 10 minutes later. Is this going to be something normal in the mornings? Didn't know if anyone else went through this... thanks!

Re: Bladder

  • It can be normal. I think for me sometimes (especially in the morning), it almost backs up beyond my bladder, so I pee, then refill real quick, and then have to pee again. BUT! If you are having this regularly you might want to get checked for a UTI. Very common in pregnancy and can make it difficult to fully empty or for you to feel like you need to pee when you otherwise wouldn't really. I also find if I lean forward while peeing, I can empty out more fully. Your organs are doing a shuffle right now so you have to occasionally make some accommodations for their new positions :P

  • Oh man I pee all the time. I can go , and then 5-10 mins go again. Sometimes I just sit there and wait and im able to get more out. I think it's the way my baby is sitting. He's head down on my bladder so I think it makes it a little more difficult for me to completely empty. But I always try cause I don't want to get a UTI.
    I would get checked for a Uti but it's probably normal ( I've only had one uti this pregnancy and it was at 5 weeks. I'm 25 now and all cultures negative so far)
