How often do you wake for a wee in the night?

[readingmakesmehappy]

I wake up at least once a night, sometimes twice. Without fail. It's super annoying. I don't drink tea after lunch (that just made me wee more) and try not to drink too much water in the evening, but still. Obviously when I was pregnant it was even worse.

I’m late 30s, had 2 kids, but I can’t remember the last time I went for a wee in the night.

3-4 times on average. Mid 50s but been this way for at least 10 years.

a couple of times a year. I'm 47

yep I’ve tried limiting drinks after 5pm but it actually makes it worse!

Maybe once or twice a week I get up once in the night. It’s a pain so must be awful for those who are up several times in a night.

3 times a night, I'm 31 but like this all my life I only stopped wetting the bed when I was 10 😪

Never, no mater how much liquid I drink. Don’t know why.

Once - mid fifties and it drives me mad, esp as I find it difficult to get back to sleep. Never used to and then the perimenopause hit.

Never, 47. I usually have a glass of water before bed.

I always go 11pm - my parents used to get me up this time every night when younger to pee so I didn't wet the bed. Then I wake up another twice sometimes. I have a weak bladder. I do work later so I think drinking water until 7 doesn't help xxxx

Usually twice, more if I drink anything before bed. I'm in my 50's and menopausal

Never - I'm 49.

Weirdly I can go 2 or 3 times in a night if I've had a "good day" in terms of what I've eaten but not at all if I've eaten lots of crap.

Melatonin helps me drift back to sleep quicker! Even after waking up 3 times for a pee 😵‍💫

I'm 54 and wake twice a night these days.

1-3 times. If I'm up with the baby then pretty much every time I'm up. I also drink a huge amount over night (not diabetic, been checked). I'll easily drink one of those 1ltr water bottles. Which is obviously why I'm needing the loo but I can't cope without it.

Loads! I do drink a lot though and light sleeper.

Never, not even when pregnant. Mid-40s.

At least twice, sometimes up to 4 times. It's bizarre as when working during the day I barely pee, but the minute I lie down I have the bladder volume of a guinea pig.

I also get a very dry mouth at night and gulp down 3 or 4 mouthfuls of water whenever I wake. I'm 52 and menopausal.

going to the loo a lot during the night can be a sign of insulin resistance.ie pre diabetes

When I started waking up to pee every night it was a sign I was diabetic, a blood test confirmed it and I was started on insulin straight away.

Almost never, as long as I don't have tea or coffee after about 8pm. I used to have a latte at 10 and woke up most nights but I have had to cut it out as I dont sleep very well. I am 60 btw

Never used to until recently. Now usually once a night. I try not to get annoyed as it’s very normal, and getting annoyed is what stops me getting back to sleep! I also have a nightlight on the landing so I don’t have to turn lights on.

Never, not even when pregnant. In fact, nobody does in this house thankfully as I'm quite a light sleeper and would take ages to get back off.

At least twice. I'm mid 40s with an irritable bladder
