Oil in urine???

Question

Hi ladies! 
Im 4w2d today 🙌🏼  
I’ve noticed this oily substance in my urine twice today and once yesterday, that I noticed at least. 
Im wondering if this is pregnancy related and if it has happened to anyone else before.
I didn’t experience this with my first 2 pregnancies.
Sorry for the TMI Photos and thanks ladies!

Congratulations on your pregnancy! 💛✨️🍼
Some health conditions can cause changes to your urine, including making it look oily. Several things can cause this, from certain vitamins to underlying conditions that need treatment. Chyluria is a condition that happens when lymphatic fluid from the intestines leaks into your kidneys. In addition to an oily appearance, your urine might also have a milky white color. This is due to the presence of fat and protein in lymph fluid. When a person experiences ketosis, they’ll have ketones in their urine. Ketosis occurs when your body begins to burn fat instead of glucose for energy. Ketones in urine during pregnancy can also be a sign of gestational diabetes. In addition, if morning sickness prevents you from eating enough, you may experience ketosis. While oily urine during pregnancy isn’t always cause for concern, it’s best to call your doctor to be sure! Your doctor can determine whether you’re in ketosis through a simple urine test. Keep in mind that ketosis isn’t necessarily a health problem, but should be checked. However, it can be a major health issue, lead to complications for some people, especially those with diabetes. If you have diabetes, ketosis may be a precursor to ketoacidosis, a serious condition that requires immediate treatment. When your body is losing more fluid than you can take in, you become dehydrated. With less water moving through your body, your urine becomes more concentrated. This can make other substances in your urine, such as fats, more visible. And many things can cause dehydration, from not drinking enough water to underlying conditions that cause diarrhea or vomiting. Most definitely best to get checked out by a doctor to be sure. And best to do it as soon as possible. Early in pregnancy is the best time to manage any major changes. I wish you all the very best! May you go on to have a beautiful and successful pregnancy and delivery! Sending you positive vibes! 💛✨️
