depended on the health of your bladder before you were pregnant too. Did you have a weak bladder to start with, things like leaking a little when you laugh, cough, or sneeze alot? Did you get a lot of bladder infections? Once pregnant the uterus will sit right on top of the bladder. The first months will make you want to pee alot, during the second half not so bad, but the pee problems come on bad in the 3rd trimester for some women with an already weak bladder. Also you are more prone to bladder infections and yeast infections when your pregnant. Its normal and expected to leak a little.. be sure its just pee and not vaginal fluids. If its clear and oderless this is mostly from the vagina and not the bladder. Thats normal too unless its soaking your underwear. Then see the doctor right away.

I am 6 1/2 weeks and I had the same thing. It turns out that I had a urinary tract infection. Theses are very common in pregnancy and usually need some antibiotics. Until you get to the doctor you should drink lots of water and cranberry juice. When you go pee make sure you completely drain your bladder even if you have to sit on the toilet for several min. Keep yourself clean and dry down there. Try using a non fregrant soap and use clean wash cloths each time you shower. Wear only white cotton panties and take it easy. In some rare cases it can get to your kidneys and cause problems with you and your baby. That is why it is important to see a doctor soon. Good luck and congradulations!!!

Kinda....make sure you are drinking lots of water and staying hydrated and emptying your bladder very often. Also you might have a change in discharge that could be runny like urine. There are exercises called Kegal Exercises and they help strengthen your muscles down there. Make sure your bladder is empty and tighten like you are trying to stop the flow of urine and hold it for about 10 seconds and release. You can do those a couple times a day and it will help you in the long run. I do them while I am driving down the road or watching TV just to pass the time!

yes. some women have this problem if the baby is resting on the bladder. make sure you are still drinking plenty of fluids and make sure that you are emptying your bladder frequently. don't try and "hold it".
oh, i just re-read your details and you're only 5 WEEKS...i thought 5 months...
not sure about that one....i would ask your OB. when you are in the start of it like this, then i would discuss anything and everything with your OB...you never know when a minor thing could be linked to something bigger.
take care.

Ahahahah! Yep!
And the Fun is just beginning!
But make sure you tell your OB/GYN about it so she can do a test for possible Amniotic Fluid Leakage, but I am sure you know the diffrence between pee .
But this is totally normal, wait until afterwards , then you really leak. use maxi pads or panti liners.

What you spot on time-honored, is what's regularly occurring. get jointly: in case you spot someone hiccuping that continuously regularly occurring yet when its nonstop for days or months, it truly is maximum in all probability no longer regularly occurring. also if someone became born with something like six palms on each hand may no longer seem regularly occurring to us although that is regularly occurring to that individual. So each so often that is a individual concern that no individual else will understand.

Yes, at 5 months there is increased pressure on your bladder. This is normal.

Yes that is normal..you need to urinate more often in the first trimester..no worries..look up kegel exercises..they do wonders especially after the baby is born

yes its pretty normal...thats because your baby is on your bladder...you might not have a strong bladder as well...it usually happens to me later in my pregnancy...i would just to make sure get a doc advice on it cause it might be amniotic fluid and not pee...

No, the baby is not big enough to be pressing up against the bladder, go to the doctor
