I'm 4 1/2 months preg and still very frequently urinating. I thought it was supposed to stop after 1st trim.

Question

Is this normal??

thanks for the answers lol I plan my outings according to where the bathrooms are

Answer 1

no it gets worse the farther along you get. the bigger the baby in there the more pressure it puts on your bladder. sorry but it doesnt stop until you have the baby the your uterus shrinks back to its pre-pregnancy size.

Answer 2

Very normal, however frequent urination continues throughout pregnancy until the end as the growing baby pushes on the bladder making you want to go more. Are you thinking of morning sickness which often ends after the first trimester??

Answer 3

I so hate the person that made me believe that the peeing would stop in the middle of my pregnancy. The frequent bathroom trips did not end in the middle, but instead increase in frequency, by a weekly basis. Just wait until you come near the end of your pregnancy... you think you're peeing now? That's just the tip of the iceburg, there's PLENTY more where that came from! Lol

Answer 4

I didnt start peeing a whole lot until after my first trimester. My friend peed quite a lot in her first tri but in her last 2 tris she peed constantly. We worked together and it seemed like almost every hour on the hour she had to run to the bathroom. It was actually kind of funny (to me not her). She was a little mad at me because we were very close in our pregnancies (her baby was born 4 days before mine) and I didnt have to pee nearly as much as she did (but my baby was also a pound lighter than hers and I gained less weight).

Answer 5

Yes, it's normal! I'm 19 wks. preg. with my 4th, and i still urinate all the time! In fact, the baby is always right on top of my bladder. Everytime i go in to the Dr.s for a checkup, when he goes to listen for the heartbeat, i say "Put the doppler right here..." (while pointing to my bladder), and sure enough, he finds it everytime! Maybe your baby is sitting on your bladder too! :) Good luck.

Answer 6

This is very normal. You will urinate more now that you are pregnant and until you deliver the baby. After the delivery you may go through another week or two while your body readjusts. I wish you all the best.

Answer 7

Well some woman do. Not me, I have been peeing the whole time, 28 weeks now. I find it is worse some days than others... nothing to worry about unless you have trouble going or it burns. Just remember, every woman is different while going through pregnancy...

Answer 8

Many woman unfortunately still urinate frequently their entire pregnancy. My daughter whom I am 30 weeks pregnant with has positioned herself on my bladder the entire pregnancy so I am always peeing.

Answer 9

aw, hun, sorry to tell you, but it just gets worse from here! I'm 5 months along, and I've been going ALL the time. the baby is growing bigger and bigger, so s/he's pushing on all your internal organs, including your bladder. some women even have to wear pads and plastic on the mattresses for nightly incontinence. it's normal!

Answer 10

As the baby gets bigger, it presses more on your bladder and peeing more often is what heppens...so it actually gets worse as you go along..wait till you sneeze and pee yourself...its a wonderful experience. Start to wear a pantyliner in case of little dribbles.
