I just get comfy in bed or settled into a book and my bladder shouts at me.

it's even more annoying today because ive sprained my ankle so it hurts to walk upstairs. Angry

I'm with Nagoo on this one.

Try and think of it as a hobby. I'm rather proud I can decide when to pee its about the only thing I still have control over Wink!

ooh I can hardly wait nagoo

I just feel like I could be doing so much more with my days if they weren't spent peeing or walking up and down the stairs. Grin

I'm with you. Doesn't it make it worse when you get there, and there's hardly any wee?! I can be desperate, but only produce a teaspoon!

Grrrrrrrrr.

Anything when you finally give birth and you are able to wait a long time for a wee and when you do go its a huge one it will make you nearly as happy as your new baby does :)

I can't wait to do a HUGE pee after the baby comes. I'm 36+3 and permanently need to pee bit when I do go its just a dribble and gives me no relief! :-(

it should ease off for a while in second trimester, then return with a vengeance in the third Angry

Limiting drinks doesn't help, just gives you a UTI! In fact drinking more should help strangely, as you'll get rid of more in one go.

And of course later on there;s the swelling that occurs that in the night when you are lying down apparently goes up into your kidneys to be peed out too (over simplified that but essentially thats what happens!)

Hey abi... I'm feeling surprisingly okay actually! Have had no sickness or nausea and just generally been quite good! How about you? I've only just started having to pee a lot tho. It's not that I need to go all the time, but seem to need to go after every drink and then when I do go it's not a huge amount!
How are you feeling aside from peeing a lot?!

I'm suffering to and it drives me mad!!

I didn't suffer at all in the 1st tri - it started late in the 2nd tri and seems to be getting worse. I hate the feeling of going to the loo and then 5 minutes feeling like I need to go again.

I worry about going anywhere which doesn't have a loo in close proximity, lol Grin

AbiElizabeth · 16/06/2013 18:56

I know! I got invited to take my dad's dog for a walk today but declined because there are no loos there haha Grin
