getting up to pee every hour, seriously?!? :(

[BellasYummyMummy]

I am 40+3 PG. I usually need to get up for a wee 2/3 times a night. My god, last night i kid you not every 1-2 hours i was off to the loo, not just for a trickle i'll have you know, but niagra falls. why am i needing to wee more now? i am still limiting what i drink before i go to bed. Also extremely thirsty when i wake in the night but try not to drink anything so that i wont have to get up later. feeling so tired today

Probably because baby is sitting right on your bladder it won't hold so much - so whereas before you could hold it all in and have one big wee in the morning when you get up, now you can't. That's what I'm thinking anyway.

This is what I was like right at the end of my DD pregnancy... from around 37 weeks - I was ill with exhaustion.

Can't offer much advice other than a hot bath before bed and hypnobirthing CDs before I went to bed helped when I was pregnant with DS.
