How many times do you get up to pee in the MOTN?

[Jalapeñomel]

And has this changed since you've gotten older?

I'm not talking about if you are pregnant, just regular middle of the night peeing.

[pandorica]

Once or twice most nights. It's ridiculous and I think a fairly recent thing. I need to stop drinking water before bed!

[wambam]

At least once. Usually twice. My biological mother had the tiniest bladder and I seem to have inherited it.

[McGavin]

Almost never.

[sandyapples]

I never wake up to pee but if a kid wakes me up in the night I will pee.

[kirra]

At least twice.

[BaliHai]

Once or twice, usually once. The worst is that I usually wake up around 5:30/5:45 in pain because I have to pee so bad, and H is in our only bathroom, where he stays in the morning for a good 40+ minutes.

[isabel]

Pre-pregnancy, never more than once, often not at all. Now, I pee every time I feed DS in the MOTN, so usually twice. Something about breastfeeding/pumping makes me have to pee. Is that weird?

[malibu]

Very rarely.

[mcsangel2]

Once (although the last 2 nights I managed to sleep through the night). I never used to have to go during the night, this changed in the last couple of years. (I am in my early 40s).

[ginger]

2-3 times since I had M. It's like my bladder never recovered after pregnancy.

Also, I don't usually have to go during the day. It's like it saves it all for the night.

[devonpow]

Almost never. But I go to bed close to midnight and get up at 6 . If I was sleeping an acceptable amount this might be different.

[sterl724]

Almost never. Like maybe once a week. And it's usually one of two things - I was drinking close to when I went to bed or it's an hour or less before the alarm goes off.

Occasionally if the dog makes noise or walked me up.

[oliveyou]

2-4 times. This is if I don't have anything to drink after 6:00pm. I have a horrible bladder.

[Waffles]

Once or twice.

Can be more if I'm not sleeping well/wake up more times. I'll drink some water every time I wake up and pretty much have to pee every time too.

[Deleted]

Once, and maybe 1-2 times a week; usually because I drank water (or wine, imagine that) too close to bedtime.

[lilafowler]

Usually once.

[RoxMonster]

Once every night. I drink water or some other liquid usually right up to bedtime though. And then I get back to bed and the dog stole my spot.

[shamrockshake]

only if something else wakes me up slightly, then I can't go back to sleep without peeing, but otherwise only very rarely do I get up to pee

[pixelpassion]

Usually never. When I had a uti, I got up twice per night and that's how I knew something was up

[Alyssa]

Pretty much never, it takes a lot to get me out of bed.

[Deleted]

Almost never. I have an enormous bladder.

[lauralala]

Usually twice, even if I don't drink anything after dinner.

[starlily]

0 to 1 times.

It really depends on when I stop drinking water during the evening.

[Deleted]

At least once, but often 2-3 times. Sometimes more. Usually it's a matter of waking up and feeling like I need to pee in order to be able to sleep, not actually being desperate to pee. I am not a sound sleeper and I'm usually lucky to get 2-3 hours of solid sleep.

[MarmeeNoir]

Usually I don't, but caffeine will make me pee more. It also gives me night sweats.

[Muddled]

3, but usually 0.

[mcmel]

Never.

[cabbagecabbage]

One time, once or twice a week.

[wildfloweragain]

once every night, about 3-4 am. Usually H does it first so I sort of wake up and figure I'd better go.
