Odd question I know but I'm mid bladder diary for a urodynamics test next week and now I'm writing it down it seems a lot. Yesterday was 13 times, is this a lot??

I am terrible
I always say I have a half hour bladder
I don't know anyone else who pees as much as me though
What are they going to do for you?

babyboomersrock · 16/03/2016 22:22

Around 5 - 6 times a day and never at night.

madmotherof2 · 16/03/2016 23:04

Probably not enough!! 3 or 4 times a day?!

StillMedusa · 16/03/2016 23:54

On the hour every hour! If I go 2 hours I am very happy!
I have always wee-d a lot. Having four kids hasn't helped tho!

FarelyKnuts · 16/03/2016 23:59

About 20 at a guess. I drink an awful lot of water though.

antiqueroadhoe · 17/03/2016 00:01

Maybe 4 or 5. I've had days when I've gone 3 times. And sometimes 6 or 7.

RJnomore1 · 17/03/2016 00:03

About 5 times today. When ovulating or premenstrual about a million times a day.

EmbroideryQueen · 17/03/2016 00:09

Probably 3-6 times on avg? Not sure I drink enough.

RJnomore1 · 17/03/2016 00:10

I'm sure I read somewhere 7 is the average.

TurnOffTheTv · 17/03/2016 00:14

10-15 easily. I drink at least 2-3 litres of water a day though

DramaAlpaca · 17/03/2016 00:17

Probably 6 or 7 times at a guess.

I always have to go once during the night as well.

mawbroon · 17/03/2016 01:15

I drink several large pots of tea a day but still only go maybe 4 or 5 times

But my bladder can hold almost a litre Shock

lljkk · 17/03/2016 01:56
  1. Easily :). Seriously I've no idea, but must be > 12. It's always buckets except at night (sleep badly anyway).
DaftLemon · 17/03/2016 04:37

I reckon 12 times a day. I may try and track it for a day or 2. I often wonder if I'm going too often.

DesertOrDessert · 17/03/2016 04:43

3-4.
But, I once weighed myself before and after, and I too can hold nearly a litre. Very, very rarely at night.

KeyserSophie · 17/03/2016 05:05

How often is as much down to bladder size and strength as to hydration levels. You should try to hold out anyway, as it strengthens your bladder and pelvic floor. I also have a horse bladder for which I thank my parents for refusing to stop on long car journeys Grin

stumblymonkey · 17/03/2016 05:44

Probably 2-4 times and never at night.

I'm like a camel in my ability to hold water and can easily go 12-16 hours.

IAmTheWhoreOfBabylon · 17/03/2016 07:26

I am envious of pee holders

TreeHuggerMum1 · 17/03/2016 11:27

Well I've been 5 times today already and need to go again. My toddler goes less than me Confused

Around 40 for me. I have had it checked out, nothing medically wrong. I just have a weak bladder.

TreeHuggerMum1 · 17/03/2016 11:41

Perfectly - did they offer to do anything?

OP posts:
eilisohsix · 17/03/2016 11:45

About 12-15 times. I always thought it was too much but never had it checked. I would be very interested in what your test reveals!

TondelayaDellaVentamiglia · 17/03/2016 11:49

loads in the morning and then I am usually good til bed time

so twice already, going up in a minute but am home all day so will probably over exercise the kettle and have to go before supper, but then I won't go until bedtime.

so maybe six or seven times max.

you have to keep it in or you don't get the nutrients.

nmg85 · 17/03/2016 11:54

7 is the average. I have a bladder condition so can be unto 70+ if having a bad day but a good day is about 10 with 1 or 2 at night.

Perfectlypurple · 17/03/2016 16:05

tree no they didn't. Just said drink less! The thing is, if I have a small drink when I get up in the morning I need to go at least 6 times before I can risk being somewhere without a toilet, so I often have to not drink for a lot of the day which then makes it worse as I drink a lot when I can have a drink as I am so thirsty.
