Weird Symptom... Possible TMI

Beckylouwho · September 2011

Hey Ladies,

I'm 33 weeks today (only 49ish more days to go!) and just started getting a strange feeling in my, for lack of a better term, lady castle

I've been having a burning sensation all day down there and it feels like I constantly need to pee. I've had a similar feeling to this before but it normally will last for 10 minutes, at most an hour. I've never had a urinary tract infection so I don't know if that's what this is. It doesn't hurt when I pee though and I know that's a big symptom.

Has anyone else felt this? I'm not even sure if it's a pregnancy symptom or just my body being crazy. Hubby is running out to get me cranberry juice now because I know that it helps with these sorts of issues sometimes. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks in advance for the advice

I've had quite a few UTI's, and it doesn't always burn/hurt when you pee. I've had some UTI's where it feels like I have to pee all the time, and its only a few drips when I go. Then it still feels like I need to go again right after I went. Either way, I would go to the doctor right away if you think it might be an infection.

Sounds kinda like a UTI. The feeling like you need to pee is normal, but not sure about the burning sensation. I'd get it checked out.

Sounds like a possible UTI. Let your doctor know your symptoms.

I agree with the PPs -- it sounds like it's probably a UTI. I've had a couple and never had pain, just the constant need to pee. Then again I get the same feeling now when LO is pushing on my bladder, so it's better to ask your doc. I think the cranberry juice only works for prevention.
