Answer 1

for number 2
holding your pee can be very harmful to your health. if you make a habit of it, you can damage your kidneys and even damage your bladder long term. basicly, if you were to do it too much, it would be more difficult for you to hold it later on in life.

im only 18 but i know this becuase about a year back i had alot of kidney problems and ended up learning a few things lol

Answer 2

you can start to feel the baby around 16- 20 weeks but the baby began to move before you can feel it and in some case you feel the baby flutter and it should feel like the butterflies......
Holding in urine and not emptying your bladder cimpletely
can increase your risk or UTIs (urinary tract infections).
UTIs during pregnancy can put both mother and baby at risk if not addressed quickly and properly.
During the second half of and in late pregnancy, the enlarged uterus (womb) and your growing baby crowds your abdominal cavity and presses on the stomach which pushes the stomach acids back up into the esophagus and may intensify the symptoms. Unfortunately, it usually comes and goes until your baby is born.

Answer 3

I first felt my baby move at 4 1/2 months, so I'm sure you are feeling yours! congrats.. it's really exciting.. ;)

If you hold your bladder in too long, you can get a Urinary Tract Infection.. I hear that's pretty common in pregnant women.. I haven't had any problems personally, and I have held myself for long periods of time.. so I guess that depends.

And, YES.. I hated it when something was pressing on my stomach when I was 5 months like you.. It's gotten better now, but I don't like it when my cat tries to lay on me. The worst is your pants digging into ur belly.. That drove me nuts! Totally normal, though.

Good luck and congrats!

Answer 4

You are perfectly normal. It was right about five months with my 1st for me when I felt movement. It feels like butterflies at first. I can't wait to feel it again (I'm almost 4 months pregnant). If you hold your urine it can cause a UTI or bladder problems. It is extremely normal to not want anything to press against your stomach. I'm already showing a little bit and I can't stand any pressure against my stomach at all.
