lol--Bless your soul. When my sister-in-law was pregnant, she peed every time she turned around. When she laughed, when she coughed, when she sneezed, when she sat down, when she got up--you name it! Just put a mattress pad on your bed and let 'er rip. Oh, and go to the bathroom just before you go to bed, whether you think you need to or not.
Good luck!

Yes its normal. U cant control ur bladder. Its nothing but the baby laying on ur bladder. Switch sides while u sleep and try to make urself go to the bathroom before u go to bed. Also try not to drink anything at least an hour before u decide to go to bed. When ur bladder gets full u cant stop it from leaking. Ive done it a couple times but i wasnt in the privacy of my home. It was when i was in the car either going to or coming from my check-ups. Good thing I always had a change of clothes everywhere i went. U should do that also. Just a tip!!!

Yes, especially if baby is lying on your bladder. Get a mattress protector, and do pelvic floor exercises, where you squeeze the muscles together that stop you peeing and holding for a few seconds in sets of ten, as many times a day as you remember.

yes it can be normal especially after having multiple children. u need to work on tightening ur muscles that hold in ur urine. practice holding it in then releseing over and over. i would also protect ur matress now since u have been having a preb so early in pregnancy. im 38 weeks and trust me the baby lays all over my bladder. i havent had this problem but it could easily happen

Yeah, unfortunately it is normal. Talk to your doctor about this. You need to be doing Kegel exercises. This will help, and it will also prevent you from havng this problem after the baby is born. Some women never get over it, so talk to your doctor!!

it's normal, but make sure you don't have an infection which could weaken your muscles.. try different sleeping position, so the baby weight is not your bladder, if thats the problem. but by 17 weeks, he/she isnt that heavy, so i'd defenately check with your doc... Good Luck!!

When I was pregnant with my first, I did not know I was pregnant yet and peed the bed twice in one night. I was so distraught over this I cried all the next day!

Oh honey, I feel for you. When I was prego I peed my pants every time I sneezed. I think it could be just added pressure on your bladder from the baby. Just to be safe, I would ask your doctor next time you see them.

its probley just the baby on your blatter. but try to empty your blatter befor you go to bed even if you dont feel like you have to go to the bathroom as the baby grows so dose your utrus and it can press on your bladder
