Ladies, I have a question.
Do you also have to pee so often at 29 weeks? After I pee, I have to go again about half an hour later. Luckily I only have to get up 1 or 2 times at night, but during the day! And then it's really just a few drops sometimes. It doesn't hurt when I pee, but my bladder hurts when I don't go! And sometimes I feel pressure on my bladder/stitches and it's quite sensitive!! Could this also be a urinary tract infection maybe?

    It's normal, your baby is probably lying on your bladder. I had that with my 2 daughters too. It was quite uncomfortable at certain moments, I even peed in my pants. And that's so embarrassing. But it's normal discomfort hahaha xxdx

    Totally normal! I’ve been there too—after going to pee, I also feel pressure on my bladder or little stabs. I had that in my previous two pregnancies too.
    With the second one, it even squeezed out a little urine from my bladder, which was absolutely bizarre :-P

    Yeah, super funny hahaha I really enjoyed it, even when I had to laugh or cough hahaha now you can laugh about it too and hopefully it won't be so bad with the third one xxx

    After my 2nd birth, I knew it wouldn't be exactly like before, haha.. (well, haha;-)
    Especially when coughing or something, I regularly have some urine leakage. Now I'm 13 weeks pregnant, almost at the 3rd, and it's even so that after I've peed well and I go up the stairs at night, I feel some urine leaking out... well, nothing new, I've got liners now..
    Normally I don't need those anymore, thankfully... but now it's really necessary with the pregnancy :-p So I fear that with the 3rd it'll be even worse, it's already starting now ;-)
    I also think I'll never get rid of it... unfortunately..

    I recognize this too! But unfortunately, I also have to get up four times a night to pee!

    OK, ha ha, thanks ladies! I'm so glad to hear I'm not the only one. I was really thinking it was a UTI—I'd even made an appointment with the doctor. Apparently, the chances of getting a UTI are much higher when you're pregnant, and the downside is that you don't feel it when you pee (when pregnant). Normally it hurts, but during pregnancy it doesn't. So a lot of pregnant women have UTIs without even knowing it (according to the internet), but reading your stories, I'm not the only one with this little issue.
    Well, I guess we'll just have to accept it.

    @Katie,
    If you don't trust it, just get your urine tested. Better once too often than once too little, okay?

    Love, Ju

    I'll just join the "pee" club too .

    At night I have to pee 4 to 5 times. During the day I also go to the toilet very frequently. If I don't go, I feel really uncomfortable. At night I can't turn around anymore either, so I really have to get up to empty that bladder for the umpteenth time .

    I’ve done two UTI tests and both came back negative, at 28 weeks and 6 days. I still have to pee so often, but the cause remains a mystery..

    I also have to pee super often.
    During the day, usually every hour.
    At night, about 3 times.

    I normally often get bladder infections, so I'm trying to drink extra much right now.
    Even though that means I have to pee even more often... better to really have to pee often, than a bladder infection and constantly going to the toilet for 2 or 3 drops....

    I also have to pee right after right after, it's so annoying, especially at night and at work it's terribly annoying.
    I really have to pee all day long
    And again shortly after each other
    I had my urine tested but no bladder infection, to my surprise
    The doctor said it's probably due to my pregnancy.

    Try peeing with a hollow back, apparently that works too, said my friend.
