How many wees do you do in a day?

I feel as if I'm constantly peeing. I'm counting today to see how many I do but it's eight so far since 7am and I need another now.
How many do you think you do on an average day?

2/3

speakout · 12/10/2020 20:59

Loads- maybe 10.
I like a couple of strong coffees in the morning and drink lots of water during the day,

My wees are short though, I don't drain like a camel. As soon as I feel some pressure I prefer to go. I feel uncomfortable with a full bladder.

nickelbabe · 12/10/2020 21:00

Fucking hundreds.
Sometimes.
I can go hours and hours without needing a wee, but sometimes just standing up makes me neeeeeed to piss.
I think it's gravity.

nickelbabe · 12/10/2020 21:03

However.
if youbare worried about how much you're weeing, please see a doctor. Especially if it's more frequently than it used to be, or smells, or is a different colour, or hurts.
And if you're drinking more than you normally would (because you need to, nof because you've made an effort to do do).

8-10 I reckon.

I find if I haven’t eaten I wee more, I don’t eat till lunchtime so I have about 6 before 1pm, then it slows down. It’s like the tea goes straight through me.

NatalieH2220 · 12/10/2020 21:20

Normally around 5 or 6. Now about 10 but I'm pregnant.

Janaih · 12/10/2020 22:24

I would recommend Vesicare (solefinicin?) On prescription for anyone who hasn't tried it. It worked really well for me for a few years but now seems to have stopped working. I know I should go back to docs...

SingleHandSue · 12/10/2020 22:28

4-5 probably

1 in morning
1 at work
1 when I get in
1 before bed

Sometimes a second at work and occasionally in the night if I’ve had too much tea in the evening.

SilverOtter · 12/10/2020 22:30

I'm guessing between 6 - 10, depending on what I'm doing and drinking.
I never have to get up in the night though, thankfully.

MagentaRocks · 12/10/2020 22:31

Crikey. 25 times at least for me.

Iamtooknackeredtorun · 12/10/2020 22:35

I can also not go for hours then need to go about every 30 mins. I sometimes feel self conscious about it on a night out (whatever they are) where everyone else might go once the entire time and I'm up and down the whole time.

I usually go once in the night and frequently through the day. This thread has made me feel a bit more normal. I'm going to keep count tomorrow. I'd guess about 15 times.

QueenOllie · 12/10/2020 22:53

Guessing about 5-7 times but then another 3 before bed (I'm at urology next week...)

ThisMustBeMyDream · 12/10/2020 23:03

About 4. Drink at least 2L a day. Once on waking, if I'm out I don't usually go again until I'm home, so tea time. Then maybe once of an evening and once before bed.

I work in community though and toilets are sparse. People are horrible if you go to a supermarket in uniform these days, so you just keep going.

I've had years of training my bladder. I wouldn't recommend it tbh!

hippohector · 13/10/2020 07:57

Loads - about 12-14.
I spoke to my doctor and she recommended that I measure input vs output (measuring how much I drink and how much I wee over a few days).
I was actually quite shocked as I drink about 2L a day but urinate nearly 3L.
It seems excessive. I know there is water in food too but still - feels like I am not retaining any fluid.
I can’t seem to find any definitive information online about how much is too much.
The doctor didn’t really know what to say Hmm

Lurkingforawhile · 13/10/2020 08:19

Lots in the morning (tea goes straight through me) but I can go the whole afternoon without. I wish the morning wasn’t so bad. We set off on a long journey last weekend and needed to stop for the loo after 35 min Blush

Unicorners · 13/10/2020 08:21

Around 10 probably. I drink loads though, and have a fair caffeine intake. It's a mix of coffee, diluting juice, water and sometimes diet coke.

ForTheLoveOfDoughtnuts · 13/10/2020 09:08

Currently pregnant and feels like I pee 300 times a day right now 😂

onlyconnect · 13/10/2020 17:38

I counted yesterday and it was 18 times in in 24 hours. I've always been inclined to pee more than some people but it's definitely increased lately. No pain, stinging or smell though.

Prob about 8. When I have a UTI much much more!

SpideryPlants · 13/10/2020 21:20

Never counted 8-10 maybe more. I drink a lot of water and herbal tea.
