fed up of needing a wee

[AbiElizabeth]

every 20 minutes. even if I don't drink anything.

pregnancy has made me grumpy and I'm only 13+3 so have many more months of this.

moan over

I'm 26+2 and it's getting worse for me! Drives me absolutely mad

I'm 34 weeks and can't stop peeing. You'll get used to it. -_-

I just get comfy in bed or settled into a book and my bladder shouts at me.

it's even more annoying today because ive sprained my ankle so it hurts to walk upstairs.

but lydia I don't want to get used to it.

by 40 weeks you'll just piss in your bed

I'm with Nagoo on this one.

Try and think of it as a hobby. I'm rather proud I can decide when to pee its about the only thing I still have control over !

ooh I can hardly wait nagoo

I just feel like I could be doing so much more with my days if they weren't spent peeing or walking up and down the stairs.

I know the feeling, 16+1 and considering one of those catheters you strap to your leg

these catheters sound interesting...

I'm with you. Doesn't it make it worse when you get there, and there's hardly any wee?! I can be desperate, but only produce a teaspoon!

Grrrrrrrrr.

I have older children in nappies. I am considering using them too.

oh it is so frustrating anything OH always finds it funny when I come out of the bathroom muttering about the unfairness of life

Anything when you finally give birth and you are able to wait a long time for a wee and when you do go its a huge one it will make you nearly as happy as your new baby does :)

I can't wait to do a HUGE pee after the baby comes. I'm 36+3 and permanently need to pee bit when I do go its just a dribble and gives me no relief! :-(

it should ease off for a while in second trimester, then return with a vengeance in the third

Limiting drinks doesn't help, just gives you a UTI! In fact drinking more should help strangely, as you'll get rid of more in one go.

And of course later on there;s the swelling that occurs that in the night when you are lying down apparently goes up into your kidneys to be peed out too (over simplified that but essentially thats what happens!)

Hey OP I'm 13+3 too! With a due date of 19/12 .... You the same?

I am indeed due 19/12 applepiesky how are you feeling?

I can't wait for it to ease off. I know I'm gonna be even more annoyed when it comes back in the third trimester

im 40+5 and considering moving into the bathroom, I have a strategic head on my bladder, the worst is when you get to the doctors, go to do a sample and your bladder goes nah I dont need too now even if you didn't go for ages and ages - or worse miss the pot!!

Hey abi... I'm feeling surprisingly okay actually! Have had no sickness or nausea and just generally been quite good! How about you? I've only just started having to pee a lot tho. It's not that I need to go all the time, but seem to need to go after every drink and then when I do go it's not a huge amount!
How are you feeling aside from peeing a lot?!

I have had horrendous morning sickness and seem to have had every bad symptom you get haha. thankfully the vomiting has eased off this week but still feel rubbish all the time. lucky you with your easy pregnancy haha

Aww no way you poor thing. I count myself very lucky indeed haha!

I'm hoping I get a beautiful glow in the second trimester and breeze through the rest till December...wishful thinking though

I'm suffering to and it drives me mad!!

I didn't suffer at all in the 1st tri - it started late in the 2nd tri and seems to be getting worse. I hate the feeling of going to the loo and then 5 minutes feeling like I need to go again.

I worry about going anywhere which doesn't have a loo in close proximity, lol

I know! I got invited to take my dad's dog for a walk today but declined because there are no loos there haha

Ohh tell me about it!!

And at work I have 2 flights of steep stairs to get up to go to the toilet!
