Extremely frequent urination

Hi everyone,
I'm currently 15 weeks pregnant with my second child. For weeks now, I've been going to the toilet extremely often (about every 10 minutes). I've been tested multiple times for a urinary tract infection, and my urine has been cultured twice. Nothing came up. I don't remember this happening during my first pregnancy. The GP and midwife don't know what's going on either, so I guess I just have to accept it. It's really affecting my daily life since I visit the toilet about 40 times a day. And I'm not exaggerating. Does anyone else have experience with this??

    I have this too, but for me, it's because of my pelvic floor since I had issues with it before. I'm already walking a bit more difficultly, and work is also getting harder. I work 4.5 hours per day, and it could also be that the baby is pressing on your bladder.

    I'm 19 weeks now and have to pee really often. If I need to go out, I don't drink anything 2 hours before getting in the car haha, super annoying but when I need to go to the toilet, I really do! I feel this pressure or something on my bladder that I can't hold it for another quarter of an hour... I also have a lot of back pain sometimes, and it feels like that lower back pain makes it harder to hold it in, you know.. terribly annoying... Do you also have this along with the frequent urination?

    I don't have any other symptoms at all. I do feel a constant pressure on my bladder, but nothing painful or anything like that.

    Have you had your blood sugar checked yet? It could also be a symptom of diabetes.
