bathroom breaks! am I the only one?

Question

I get really nervous when I see lots of women say the same thing and it doesn't apply to me.... I normally (when I'm not pregnant) don't go to the bathroom much... never in the middle of the night. But now that I am pregnant, I still don't go in the middle of the night. I don't really feel like I'm going much more than I usually do. The only difference I can tell is that I can't hold it at all. I'm 17 weeks currently. Am I the only one not going to the bathroom in the middle of the night? I'm concerned!

Answer

Your baby still has plenty of room. When he starts getting bigger the baby will start to lay up on your bladder. That happened in my case. As long as you are drinking YOUR required amount of water i would not worry.

Answer

Oooh give it some time. Lol your start soon

Answer

Not a huge cause for concern on its own. As someone who now gets up at least 3x per night I'd say you're pretty lucky! Do you feel like you're staying hydrated? Do you drink less before bedtime so you naturally have to go less at night?

Answer

It's probably fine and also lucky youuuu! I'm 23 weeks but going every hour or two (sometimes every 20 minutes even when I'm awake). Also it's gotten a little better in the past few weeks. I'm guessing your baby isn't putting as much pressure in your bladder so enjoy!

Answer

I'm 23 weeks and have never have to get up to go unless I wake up for a different reason, but when I wake up in the morning my stomach hurts really AND and I go pee and it feels like a waterfall and then my tummy is ok. My body is weird.

Answer

You are dehydrated. You should need to use the restroom every hour during the day and at least once a night. A gallon daily is recommended for 2nd and 3rd trimesters. 1st is a minimum of 2.3L.
