Anyone else waking up MULTIPLE times a night to pee?

Lapsfam · April 2010

I don't know how to get a good night's sleep anymore! I get up at 11, 1, 3, 5...

Any advice? Anyone else?

AmandaAndTj · April 2010

I get up at least 4 or 5 times to pee. It sucks!

LCB34 · April 2010

I'm the same way. I had a streach (from about 12-16 weeks) where I didn't have to get up at all. However, I am up at least 2 times a night now.

I'm on about an every 2.5 hour schedule. It's like having a newborn! lol

Usually two times for me but then I have to go the second I wake up fully.

Toots_pop · April 2010

Yes...at least 2-3 times...soo annoying!!

mexicolombiana · April 2010

yup. Sometimes 3-4 times a night, sometimes less, sometimes more.

bre86ann · April 2010

not multiple times, no... well, sometimes 2 or 3, but every morning without fail I have to get up at 5 to pee and can't get back to sleep til 7 and then I have to get up at 8 for work.... it doesn't matter what time I go to bed or how many other times I get up to pee. I ALWAYS wake up at 5 and am up til 7.

Yep. Usually sometime between 3 and 3:30 am and then again around 5am (but sometimes I can sleep past that one until my alarm goes off around 6am).

Of course there are times when I'm so tired and go to bed by 10pm that it starts around midnight. UGH!

It comes and goes for me - I'm up at least once a night - but last night I was up 4 times and it's funny because each time I woke up thirsty so I knew I'd be up again soon.

As pp it's sort of like practice for having a new born.

About 2 times a night. Once around 1:30-2am, then about 6am when DH's alarm goes off.

CamFam · April 2010

Not only to pee, but also because this little guy starts squirming and kicking me pretty hard around 4 AM.

JJ1973 · April 2010

I average four times per night. I'm so exhausted. I think part of it is that I am kind of uncomfortable in bed (my ribcage hurts...I feel like princess and the pea) and frequently wake up because of that. Then, I notice I have to go to the bathroom...and I always do these days. It seems like I can always pee no matter what time of day/night it is.

This is me too. I always woke up in the middle of the night though.

UnderAtree · April 2010

I'm like that. I've learned that if you stop drinking about 2hrs before you go to bed really helps. Also, the last time you visit the bathroom before going to bed try to pee as much as you can. Go then wait about 5 to 10 minutes then go again.

Same here, I get up several times a night to pee, especially in the beginning it felt like I was up every hour.

historychick79 · April 2010

I deliberately stop drinking by 6pm to avoid this, and make sure to get my 60-80oz before I get home from work. Most of the time I'm up only once, and hope it will continue as bladder space gets smaller Smile

Even if I stop drinking water by a certain time I STILL have to get up 3-4 times a night to pee. It's so annoying! Luckily I usually don't have much trouble falling back asleep.

Runningmama10 · April 2010

I go about twice per night, sometimes once but at least once.

The Housewife · April 2010

I take an old super flattened out pillow (come on everyone has those somewhere) and put it under my stomach when I sleep.It seems like it takes the weight off since it lifts my belly. I'm sure you could use one of those pregnancy wedges or a body pillow too. I get up 1-2x a night still but thats probably because I drink water up until I fall asleep and keep a glass next to the bed.

mocklerja · April 2010

I always wake up once to pee. Usually 3-4 hours after I fall asleep (unless DH comes to bed and wakes me up). Been pretty lucky so far!

BeckyTheEngineer · April 2010

Uh-oh, I could be in trouble soon. Around weeks 16-19 I was waking up to pee every night, but that went away. Lately, my sleep has been great. I was hoping it stays that way, but it sounds like I'm the only lucky one making it through the night right now.
