2nd Trimester

help! this might be TMI! but oh well

I have been up peeing all night long. Its like once I lay down I have to go again and its a lot of pee. i went 21 times last night. have any of you had something like this happen. I know you pee alot when your pregnant but I never did half this much with my first pregnancy! I know its not a bladder infection cause it does not hurt. But its keeping me from sleeping at all at night. could this be a sign of diabeties? Help!!

  • 1. Nothing is TMI on this board, so no worries there.

    2. 21 times sounds like an awful lot. I would maybe suggest calling your doc / nurseline for their opinion.

  • Totally normal to be getting up to pee constantly. I'm peeing a lot more than usual. It could be that the baby is pushing down on your bladder...just another wonderful symptom of pregnancy. :)

    wait, just read the questino entirely. I would call your doc if your worried. :)

  • I'd say drink the majority of your water for the day before 6pm then restrict your drinking to only when you are thirsty or enough to take you PNV.  It will help you sleep more through the night.  Make sure you're getting enough water before then but that's what I do and I get much more sleep now.  I'd also talk to my Dr about it.  That seems like an excessive amount to me.

  • Definitely call your doctor!  It could very well be an infection (bladder, UTI, kidney) without being painful.  Especially in pregnancy, symptoms can differ from what is normal.  I hope the doctor can help find out what is going on!

  • 21 sounds like a lot..let your doctor know..I usually go before bed and wake up once to go..thats all...but I am a heavy sleeper
  • I would still check with your Dr. I had a UTI once (the Dr. said it was "One heck of a UTI", and it didn't hurt at all, but I DID feel like I needed to pee every 30 sec. Do you actually pee much every time, or is it just mainly the feeling, and not as much coming out? Even if it isn't a UTI, I would at least let your Dr. know! Good Luck!

  • I am peeing alot! i wll call my dr and see what they say! thanks!!!!
  • My OB said that pregnant women can have a UTI with little to no symptoms, and that's what it sounds like to me. I would definitely call your doc on Monday and schedule and appt! 21 times is outrageous!
  • I'd also start limiting water after dinner.

    When you go, is there a lot of urine, or just a tiny bit?  I know I'm more sensitive about feeling like I have to go, even if barely anything comes out.

  • Call your doc- 21 times is too much.
  • I know for myself if I drink a lot before bed I'll be up all night long as well. I don't I've ever been up 21 times, but it sure feels like it some nights.

    I have found that if i cut myself off with drinks about an hour before bed, I'm not getting up as much. Maybe give this a try and if that doesn't work I'd call your doctor.

    GL!

  • Call your doc, just in case.  I had a UTI back in October, and had no pain whatsoever.  My only symptom was that my pee smelled weird, but like I said, no pain.  Call your doc.
