Pee, pee go away!  

post #1 of 17
Thread Starter 
Is anyone else peeing ALL THE STINKING TIME! I don't remember this happening so early with my other pregnancies. I am up at least 3x a night to pee. Even if I haven't drank anything before bed!

Last night I didn't get up to pee until 5 30 and I was PSYCHED, it was like a pee vacation.

Yes. I pee all day long and am up 5+ times/night to pee. I hate it. I have no idea what I'm going to do as I get even bigger.

Yes, the other day, DH asked me if I just wanted to move the TV and bed right in the bathroom, lol! It drives me nuts!

I actually didn't wake up to pee last night and I was like "OMG YES!"

It's been insane.

I've peed a ton since before I had my BFP. A few nights ago I fell into a deep sleep, but when I woke up I almost peed myself and my entire insides were KILLING me from pain. I peed and it felt soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo good But you should have seen me RUN to the bathroom! LOL!

It's bad at night b/c I have to sneak out of the clutches of a super snuggly 16 month old, who sometimes wakes up and has to be nursed back down before I get to go pee...

pee vacation! :

Its nice to hear that I'm not alone! Well, I do feel sorry for us though!

Sunny, I totally know what you mean! IF I do manage to sleep thru the urges I wake up and want to die from the pain! I too have a toddler who I have to "sneak" away from to get to the potty! LOL!

Oh, yes. And I work, too, so peeing during the day has become a major thing. I'm always saying, "I'll be right back" to my neighbor secretary (we watch each other's phones) and she is wondering why I'm getting up all the TIME this early in the pregnancy! I remind her I have to stay hydrated to combat the headaches and the downside to that is constant trips to the potty. I try to hang on, but then I end up in pain and waddling gingerly down the hallway... *sigh* there is no easy answer!

My toddler wakes when I get up, too, although she doesn't nurse anymore. It'd be easier if I could nurse her back to sleep, because as it is, she screams for a cup of juice, then I have to tell her no, and then she's awake and p.o.'d for the next 20 minutes (or more). By the time she gets back to sleep... I have to pee again.

Lovely.

yes! i've always been a pee-er but this is out of control. also, i'm up every 2-3 hours during the night. tmi alert - does anyone find that the constant daytime peeing (like at work) leads to a constantly damp crotch situation? i really hate that and usually feel compelled to change my drawers by the time i get home. but maybe that's just me....

At least you woke up

It hasn't happened yet. But I have already told my dh to expect me to wet the bed at least once during this pregnancy. It happened once or twice with my first child, it is so hard to get to sleep that I don't think I wanted to wake up and suddenly I was having a pee-related dream. Then it was more soggy than dreamy.

WIth my coughing fit (that I'm thankfully just about over I think) the pee situation got so bad that I bought some adult inconstanance pads (sorry for the spelling on that one, geesh)

I'm not drinking enough at this point I dont think, but I am noticing more trips to the bathroom then before - getting up at least once at night too.

On the topic, I'm taking the rainbowlight prenates and they seem to make my urin neon yellow - like really really bright, stain the toilet paper yellow. It's weird. I know it's them because if I dont take them for a day or two, back to normal. How weird...

The neon yellow from the prenatals is from the B vitamins in it.

I usually have a Bladder of Steel(tm) so the 4am pee during the 1st tri was a wake-up call - I usually only have to pee once a day if that. I'm still not too bad but usually wake early knowing I need to pee, go back to sleep, then have to shove dh out of the way once the alarm goes off as I run to the bathroom Or I reach crisis point that little bit earlier if smallest dog decides he wants early morning cuddle positioned right over my bladder.

I usually just make sure I go last thing before I go to sleep, which reminds me of my earliest memories of potty training and my parents sitting next to me with the water running trying to get me to go, as I've not had to go before bed since I was tiny!

Thank god it isn't just me! I have peed 4-6 times per night, even if I stop drinking at 6 pm, since the first month. During the day, whenever I stand I can go pee...

Then the disappointment comes with just a trickle.

So far everything if fine with urine tests, and doc said it would get better after 12 weeks "when my uterus moves out of the pelvic bone". Still waiting here at 15 weeks

I thought I was the Queen of Pee; but some of you really have me beat good. I usually pee before going to bed, then wake up once...which is ok with me, because I wake DS up to pee too so he doesn't wet the bed.

But the daytime.....OHHH the daytime. I'll be fine for a couple hours, then I have to pee -ok fine- and I'll go. And then like, 3 minutes later; I'll have to go again. This might happen three or four times in a row in the span of an hour; then it's done for another few hours.

None of what I'm experiencing this time happened until the END of my pregnancy with DS. It's part of the reason I really thought this baby was a girl; but it turns out I'm wrong about that too.

Yes! And I can't STAND IT! There's all sorts of fluids floating around.

I love it! I haven't peed the bed yet but I have to REALLY watch it when I cough or sneeze. Ooooo that's dangerous.

I had that issue too and had no idea it was from the b vitamins. I thought it was the weirdest thing! And it happened to me so quickly, like 1-2 hrs after taking the pills.

Ahhh its so nice to hear that we're all together.
