Does anyone *not* need to pee all the time?

[12ylnon]

I've been obsessing slightly about my lack of urination. I'm 12 weeks on sunday and starting to show, had lots of awful symptoms too.
It's not that i'm not peeing at all, just no more than usual. Is that normal or should i be worried?

I haven't been peeing all the time. I'm 10+3, had a scan tonight and was told baby's positioned quite far away from my bladder, so no real pressure there yet! Don't worry, completely normal I am told. I was stressed about that one too.

Be careful what you wish for ... I was fine at your stage and slept right through, now however after getting up for my 4th wee of the night (am 35 weeks tomorrow) I now can't get back to sleep and DH is snoring...

I pee ALL the time so enjoy it while it lasts!
ps Hi Rosieposey! My RPosie stands for Rosieposie too!

My cast iron bladder is still going strong at 34 weeks weeks with twins! No night time pees at all for me, and I can hold it in for hours when I need to.

However I have now ended up with a UTI so I can recommend at least trying to go every now and then, rather than waiting till you're desperate like I do!

I am 40+3 an am lucky if I go half an hour without needing the toilet again

34+5 and barely up once a night. However, baby is breech and so it's only occasional feet that put pressure on my bladder. I wouldn't worry about not needing to go all the time, especially at your stage as your uterus is expanding upwards, giving the baby more room to wriggle about and change position, so they're not always leaning on your bladder...enjoy it whilst it lasts!

I'm 38+2, and I'm only getting up once in the night to wee. Having said that, I did have a Bladder of Steel before getting pregnant so I suspect that has some effect.

I didn't have it all with my pregnancy with ds. Not even when I was huge at the end

[floatyjosmum]

I'm 18+5 and not having to go more than usual but when I need to go I need to go

I never did early on...as for 36weeks onwards that is a different story now that the head is engaged !!!

[elmo1983]

as per my other thread! have minimal symptoms - no ms, no peeing, no food aversion - feel normal as bar sore nipples! - hoping all ok xx

Are you drinking enough water? If your urine is a darker colour than normal then it might be that you need to drink more.

38+5 and only had the odd day or night where i urgently need to pee - slightly more now baby has dropped sometimes but tbh in terms of frequency not much difference to non pregnancy!

And i obsessively watch urine colour.... i have a teachers bladder mind.
