How many times a night do you wake up to pee?

bim38106 · August 2009

4-freaking times a night here, on average, sometimes it's more! Ugh. I don't think I ever got up more then once a night with DD#1. It's starting to get to me... I'm always tired, and now I'm having a hard time falling back asleep every time I have to get up. So annoying.

And I don't drink much water before bed or anything.. it's like I have a timer in me: I pee right before I go to bed, then right as I'm about to drift off BAM I have to go again, then at 1:30, 4:30, 7:30 and 8:30 when I wake up. Sleep

I feel your pain. I'm at about 3 times a night.

Soap1 · August 2009

Usually 2-3 for me. It's awful!

Brownie_222 · August 2009

5 times maybe? I don't count anymore...

jrnewhook · August 2009

Usually 2-3 times, but last night it was FIVE TIMES! How are we supposed to get much needed rest when we have to pee every hour and a half?!?

browneyes_24b · August 2009

My record is 6 times. It's usually about 4 on a regular night.

Take comfort in the fact that there is a lady in North Texas waking up at those SAME times every night. It doesn't matter when I stop drinking, I think my body saves it all up for the night because I still wake up 4 times on average to pee.

JesykaC21 · August 2009

at least 3-4 times... usually about a half hour after i go to bed, then it seems every 2-2 1/2 hours afterwards Stick out tongue

marinewife51 · August 2009

I'm like clockwork too...I feel your pain! Most nights it's 4x, sometimes more. I'm ready for a good night's sleep....oh wait, that probably won't happen for a LONNNNNG time!

ashleyandbrian · August 2009

Don't hate me... I'm not really waking up at night to pee... but at the other end of the spectrum, my LO is so high that I can barely breathe. I'm sure once he drops I'll be in the bathroom CONSTANTLY.

mernamom · August 2009

For me it's usually only once or twice a night but every once in a while I have a night like last night. I seriously lost count of the number of times I was up to pee!

carimeli · August 2009

on a good night - 1-2. Last night...at least 5. So much that DH told me I should just wear diapers. lol

Mighty_Nugget · August 2009

You and I sound like we have the exact same schedule. It's driving me nuts.

MrsSandro · August 2009

About 4 times. It I don't go I can't fall back asleep. Starts about 11 p.m. and every 2-3 after that. I fall asleep fast though.

evhamm · August 2009

11,1,3,5,7 and 8 usually...almost clockwork.

the worst is peeing, then going back to bed with cramps and then being so excited that I can't fall asleep for another half hour.

I do take simply sleep/unisom every few days which helps with falling back asleep, and have realized that daytime naps are not conducive to a good night of sleep even if they help temporarily during the day.

lidleybosch · August 2009

5 times between 9 pm and 6:30 am. I do drink a ton of water after 8 pm everynight so I guess I cannot complain! i am more bothered by the heaviness of my belly while on my side, cannot get comfy, no matter how many pillows and no matter how strategically placed.

ivs112 · August 2009

Usually once but sometimes none at all Stick out tongue

. I peed a lot more in 2nd tri though, about 3 times a night.

jenns123 · August 2009

Usually about 4-6. Ugh! Every 2 hours at least.

sjp · August 2009

two times generally--sometimes 3

Jessie0706 · August 2009

I go only once, but I get woken up for about 15-20 before and it takes me about 30 min to get back to sleep after... Ugh.

THANK YOU! I wonder the SAME thing!!!?

sweetfern · August 2009

3-4x...Once as I am drifting off, then again about 1.5-2 hours later, once about 5:30-6:30 a.m., and there is one that falls in between.

nowayimpreggo · August 2009

Usually 3-4 times/night for me. It gets kind of annoying. I can usually fall back to sleep pretty quickly though. So sorry it takes you awhile after each trip - that's brutal!

amanda1128 · August 2009

It depends on when I go to bed, but normally about every 3 to 4 hours at least.

LOL DH told me the same thing. I told him I'd seriously consider it, except I don't think I could actually knowingly pee and then just sit in it.. eww LOL

BetsyDavis · August 2009

It ranges from 2-6 times.?

alikat07 · August 2009

I'm pretty lucky with this - I only go 1-2 a night. Last night I didn't go at all!

stephrodjoos · August 2009

about three or for times a night but then I am so thirsty i have to drink water its a non stop circle of events.

baby926 · August 2009

Every 2 hours like clockwork!

curlilocks1207 · August 2009

3-4 times a night for me.

jema30 · August 2009

On average I'm up 2-3 times/night. I figure it's good training for when the baby arrives. I haven't slept through the night in months!

ani25 · August 2009

around 5

babyxmas · August 2009

Around 6 times a night. I do go to bed with a cup of water though. I need to take a zantac.

Dncr251 · August 2009

usually around 3 times...I'm on an every 2 hour schedule!

ashdonne · August 2009

I am between 4-6 times a night. And I usually try and go twice before going to bed at least too. Its terrible!

SportyMrs.23 · August 2009

3-4 times a night.

dswed0407 · August 2009

2-3 times a night...

lovesazzie · August 2009

Usually 2-3.

mari_gold · August 2009

After reading the responses I am counting my blessings -- if I have to get up, it's usually only once. I do try to stop drinking anything after 9:30 or so, and it's so hot out lately that I think I lose a lot in sweat.
