I am two weeks behind you and I have the pee feeling all the time. I just try to go regularly and I wear pee pads in case I am not able to (a hard sneeze or cough and I'm done). Baby's position is super low so this is pretty normal according to my doctor!
Yeah, I've gotten pretty used to heading straight to the bathroom immediately upon standing up if I've been sitting for a little while. I figure baby is packing on the weight and resting low, so my poor bladder is getting constant pressure. Most of the bathroom trips seem worthless because there is so little pee, but what can you do. If you are concerned, mention it to the doctor, but I'd guess it's just the joys of the end of pregnancy.
Normal for me. I'll be fine sitting, then stand up and sometimes can barely make it to the bathroom without peeing myself a little (which I'm not always successful, ugh).

Normal for me too. When I have a large glass of water it takes 2-3 hours of bathroom trips every 20-30 minutes to feel empty. I try so hard to spread out my water intake, but I always end up chugging it instead
Totally normal. If it burns when you pee, or once you're done peeing you immediately feel like you need to bee (badly) again, then it's worth checking for a UTI. Otherwise, fret not.
For me it is the worse when I stand up after sitting for a while and I get a ton of pressure on my bladder. What I've realized though is that if I give it a minute or two after standing up the urge to pee and pressure on my bladder lightens up a bit. So, I usually wait a minute or two instead of dashing off to the bathroom immediately, as I was getting sick of those trips when hardly anything came out.

vtdiamond I just noticed the same thing today. I've been sitting at my desk most of the day but as I was walking to get lunch, I had to pee more and more, haha. I suppose the extra weight/pressure will do that!
I think it would be normal as long as you don't have pain or as long as it isn't literally every 5 min. If so I'd maybe go in and get tested for a UTI.
It sounds like the baby is sitting on your bladder. As long as it is not painful, it is a symptom of pregnancy. Talk to your doctor anyhow for your own peace of mind.
I had a low grade one after having DS2 and didn't clue in to what it was for weeks. And I have had dozens of UTIs. I never felt the burning or bladder pain I would normally have - just felt like I had to pee all the time but also felt dehydrated.
Hopefully it's just the baby but better to get it checked out.
