When to worry about frequent urination?

[konapoppy]

Sorry for the TMI

I pee all the time. Sometimes multiple times an hour.
I have tried the wait a minute and lean forward trick, but no dice. I don't have any burning or pain, just frequent. I am 9w3d. Should I be worried?

I had the same issue during first trimester. I wouldn't worry about it too much unless you start to have pain or start feeling urgency (have to pee right this second). Your uterus is still low in your pelvis and can compress the bladder. If you're worried you could always call your OB though. Do you have an OB appointment soon?

Thanks! I have an appt next Tuesday. Glad to know I am not alone.

I peed alllllllll the time first trimester. And actually it hasn't really let up now that I'm in second tri. Part of the pregnancy deal, I guess! But, you are definitely not alone :-)

I peed way more than I expected during the first tri. That being said I don't know that it was ever multiple times an hour. I find I also have to lean back to get my bladder fully empty.

same as the others. I would say it was worse in first tri than now in third tri.

you have an uptick in your blood volume, which is more blood for your kidneys to filter, creating more urine.

This was one of the few first tri symptoms I actually got. I had to pee all the time.

Lucky for me it seems to be returning in the third tri, but I got a little break for a few weeks.

I will think good thoughts about a break in second tri it certainly isn't the worst symptom. I think I now pee more than my mom LOL

I'm just about in 2nd tri (13 weeks) and have noticed I'm not getting up to pee 5 times a night anymore (yay!) I know from experience it will get worse again later on,mbut 2nd tri it should get better for you.

I peed 5 times the other night. Insane. I think my bloat is going down so that may have something to do with it too!

It's probably normal first tri hormones but if you're worried go to your doc.

You are not alone.  I joked that my office was the ladies rest room because I made so many trips there.

I peed a lot in first tri. It decreased in second tri, but now it's back. Argh.
