How often to wake up to pee?

chatty6176

Do you wake up alot to go to the bathroom?  With DS#1 I woke once maybe twice here and there to go. This time around it's more like 4-5 times.  Is this normal? Anyone else?

I can make it through the night going once or maybe twice.

Early on, it was about 4 times to pee. Now, it's 4-5 times do to RLP, pee, insomnia, kicking, etc. 

I think it's pretty normal, especially if you intake more liquid in the evening instead of the afternoon.

Only once thankfully. I'm limiting fluid intake after 7pm.

None. The same with DD.

hmm...last night it was 3...I think this is pretty normal but just an FYI to everyone, I had a UTI and didnt' even know it.  I have gotten to used to being uncomfortable and peeing A LOT that I didn't realize I was having symptoms so if your back hurts ( like where your kidneys are) and you are peeing OFTEN but nothing is really coming out you may want to be checked for a UTI JUST incase...they can cause contractions and now that I am on antibiotics i am feeling better.

I get up anywhere from 2-4 times a night. I just depends. Everyone says to limit fluid intake but I can't! I stay sooooo thirsty. Even when I get up to pee I have to stop and get a drink of water... lol. Oh well, my wake up time this week has now moved from 4:09 to 3:00 and for some reason I am wide awake. I guess I may as well get use to no sleep!

Normally I get up about 3 or 4 times to pee at night

I can usually go all night without waking up to go. But, if I wake up for any other reason (DD or pain in hips), I have to go. It may depend on how you are carrying, I seem to be carrying high and th the right, yes, my bump is lumpy and lopsided.

about 4-5 times a night. I think sometimes I sleep walk to go too!!

like 3 or 4 times! and before i was pregnant i NEVER woke up to pee, but now if i dont get right up ill have a dream that im peeing and ALMOST pee myself and have to run to the bathroom... i know im not going to get through the rest of this pregnancy without peeing myself at least once!

when I'm first laying down to go to bed i get up to pee a time or two before falling asleep (I think it's a mental thing)  But every night I've been waking up between 4 and 5 am to go.

Anywhere from 2 to 5 times a night, last night was 3.

I can make it the whole night without getting up to go to the bathroom.  However, if I do happened to wake up then I make a trip to the bathroom.  Like this morning I woke up to the baby kicking really hard so I just went to the bathroom since I was awake anyways.  I have been limiting my fluids at night so that has really helped not getting up to go to the bathroom.

If I do get up, it is only once.  I really don't pee a lot.  Even throughout the day and I drink 60oz of water daily (have done that for years).  I asked my doc and he said that I am a lucky one, but my day be coming that I will start to pee a lot.  Just seems odd to me not to go pee ALL the time.  Maybe I am retaining the fluid?

it was only once for months and now in the past week or so it's been two or three times :-(

A normal night for me is 2-3 times. I keep telling DH he is going to wake up some morning and find me asleep on the toilet.

kacelle

Last night, 3 times in 6 hours.  I woke up even more often in the late first trimester, I guess due to hormone surges.  

Kristin&Kelly09

At night I wake up every 2-2.5 hours to pee.

mzsparklepdx

I wake up every 2-4 hours. I am almost always parched and so drink more water, repeating the cycle.

JustineDD

With my 1st pregnancy I could usually get by with 1 or 2... this pregnancy I find I'm carrying really low, and I am guaranteed up a minimum of 3 times, normally is more like 4 or 5 though... hard to believe there is still over 10 weeks to go.. hopefully it doesn't get worse.. haaha

jazzyag

Usually about once, but I try to take in most liquids before 5-6pm.  I really try to avoid going in the night because DD's door is right beside the bathroom and she wakes up most times I go, grrrrrr.  Then I have to either take a bunch of time to help her back to sleep, or invite her into bed with DH and I, either of these keep me awake for a long time after DD's back to sleep

Pretty much this.  I also usually have to go a couple of times in the first hour as I fall asleep.

melgrady

Between 2-4 times a night, but I drink water during the night because I feel really dehydrated when I wake up.
