SaraM · Apr 8th, 2012, 20:35 PM

so recently i've noticed that i wake up in the middle of the night and i have to pee so badly. i run to the bathroom and can not pee!! i keep trying and pushing and eventually it comes out in spurts and takes forever. anyone have any idea what this can be from?

Could be a bladder infection. I have had several and at one point it was so bad I could not pee.

(Sorry I'm a lurker from second tri!)

Could be a uti or just the baby pushing down on your bladder. Try tilting forward when you pee and it may help. I would talk to your doctor if I were you just to be safe and possibly get a urinalysis. GL

I had/have issues like this, I'm pretty sure its just the baby being down into the bladder and squeezing the ducts.

Yes, could def be UTI, I get them so frequently I can spot them at the first sign, even before any pain/discomfort. But, if you are able to rule out an infection, it could very well be just baby pounding on your bladder :/ I often (almost daily) feel that quick shooting pain sensation, much like the urgency to pee, but figured out that it's just my little boy rolling around and stretching out!

I agree with cowgirl....i'm having the same thing right now. But on a good note I do believe my little man has finally turned head down...lol

Hi, have you had any back problems? I have some bulging discs in my back and during the earlier part of pregnancy they were causing a lot of pain. My physio said to call a doc ASAP if I ever had problems such as you describe in case the discs were causing a more serious problem. I would call the doc just in case. It could just be a UTI though, hope you're better soon x
