Feels like I need to go but have to almost push it out & change position. I'm nearly 20weeks.

Any ideas mumsnetters?

Thank you

Talk to your midwife it could be a UTI.

Try rocking back and forward while you pee in the meantime to help move the baby and let you empty your bladder fully.

Thank you, thats interesting when I rock it comes out. No other symptoms, burning pee or anything and no reason I can think of as to why I would have a UTI. Balls. Maybe it's worth a call :/

I had this, no uti just baby blocking my bladder a bit. Rocking/tilting pelvis forward helps and standing up then trying to squeeze the last bit out (after sitting back down!) helps.

Thanks Junosmum I think that's it you know, went for the loo a bit earlier (nothing like miniute to minute reporting :D) and it was better than before. More pee the more force it would seem to have, def matches your experience. I will try standing too to ensure all out. Start of another body change hey. Suppose there is only so much space for bubs there :) x
