Constantly need to wee

Currently TTC and just had my fertile window so have been quite, ahem, active recently. Since Wednesday (pretty much the end of said fertile window) I've needed to wee really often and it seems to be getting worse. There's no pain or burning when I wee, though a bit of a 'pressure' feeling towards the end. It just feels like my bladder is never really empty. Literally as soon as I get off the toilet I need to go again. I get a bit of relief if I sit on there for ages and squeeze more drops out but it still doesn't last long.

I guess it's a UTI but the lack of pain is throwing me a bit. I'm trying to drink lots of water and am steering clear of caffeine and fruit juice. Will go to the Dr if it's not cleared by Monday but it's making me pretty miserable. Any advice?

Sounds like a UTI.
Over the counter urinary alkaliser and urine test to the doctor.
Make sure you empty your bladder after intercourse every time.
Good luck

Thank you! Still much the same today. DH got me some over the counter stuff (potassium citrate I think) but it says not to use if you're pregnant without consulting a dr and I'm still in the tww... Do you think it would be ok to use? I've been trying some bicarb of soda and a hot water bottle on the advice of my mum which seems to be helping a bit.
