never empty bladder

I seem to never be able to empty my bladder completely. I will go pee then walk away and less than a minute later have to go again. The next time it will be just a little dribble but enought to make me have to go again. Last night this happened 3 times in 5 minutes. I would start to go back upstairs and I would get the feeling I had to go again. Anyone else experiencing this?

    Rock back and forth to make sure it is empty. Always works for me!

    I think thats pretty much par for the course.  It only seemed to get worse and worse for me these past few weeks.

    Try the "lift and lean" - lift up your belly a little bit when you're going, and when you think you're done, lean around to the sides and front.

    I've also used another trip on car trips and such - blow your nose when you're sitting on the toilet, the force tends to get out some extra pee.

    HTH!

    Try peeing, then stand just a little and lean forward. Gets that little bit out for me every time.

    Make sure you don't have a UTI. I was doing this at the end of my last pregnancy, just thought it was normal pregnancy crap, and it ended up being a UTI.

    This. I know it sounds counter intuitive but try drinking more water... I seem to get that "have to go to the bathroom" feeling when I'm a little dehydrated. HTH

    First of all. ME TOO!

    this works for me and so does leaning forward and letting my belly hang way out front. I think it helps to move my ute off my bladder so it can fully empty. :)
