I have had this problem sincor my DD was born. I thought it had something to do with breast feeding in the night as I immidiatley needed the toilet after breast feeding. Now my DD is sleeping good I no longer need to feed her in the night but I still wake up 3 or 4 times a night needing the toilet. Has anyone else had this problem?

It might be habit now. Pelvic floor exercises, don't have a big drink just before bed, avoid drinks that make you wee more (coffee, soft drinks etc). I had this for a while once DS1 started sleeping through. I did the above and also didn't let myself go to the loo in the night, just rolled over and went back to sleep (not always possible but it worked in the end).

Could it be that you are actually waking up to check on baby (subconciously) and you realise you need a wee as soon as you are awake.
