desperate for a wee and when you get there its so hard to go! not uti

[tristansmum]

Anyone else getting this. You think you need to wee and rush to the loo only to get a dribble or you have to kinda lean forward to make it come????? Is this because of baby position? I'm 38 weeks tomorrow.

i get that all the time!! it like takes forever to come out when you would expect it to come rushing out. i think the baby is on my bladder.

 

[iwantabub]

Yep totally... Busting then nothing comes out for ages then finally it does and it may be heaps or just a trickle...

So confusing

 

[Dani_Ldn]

Yup, get this all the time

 

[tristansmum]

Thanks guys. Good to know I'm not the only one!

I had this @14weeks p. the point where I couldn't pee at all. Ended up in hospital with a catheter.

 

[Lady H]

Yep I get that. I also get need very urgently to pee when I have a Braxton Hicks, can't pee then don't need to go when it passes.

 

[Rozz1e1]

Yep!! All normal im afraid!! One thing Im deffo looking forward to being able to do when iv had lil lady is weeing properly lol xxx

 

[katsbump]

Yup, so frustrating. When I flip in bed at night it's really irritating cuz the short time I'm in mid-flip I suddenly have to pee. When I go it's a dribble! Sometimes when we have to go out I have to go about fifty time to finally feel like i don't have to go anymore and a dribble each time. It's wherever the baby is sitting.

I got taught a method to deal with this and it does help, get a stool for the toilet so your knees are higher than your pelvis, lift bump physically with you hands rock your pelvis forward and back to fully empty your bladder, a full squat is most effective but hard to achieve.
Otherwise as soon as I get up I feel like I should turn around and head back to the toilet.

Yes!! All the time I'm up about 5 times a night bursting just to dribble! It's so infuriating! U expect to be up all night wen the bundle arrives but not now (31 weeks) in fact last night I was proud I only got up 3 times and had to share this amazing fact with my OH lol x

 

[xdxxtx]

Ugh. Yes. When my baby is in certain positions, I've really gotta push to get the pee out. Also, once I've gone, I have to push more to get whatever residual pee out, too. Otherwise, I'll stand up and pee myself because baby has moved a little.

 

[Sarah125]

Happens to me too. It's especially annoying in the middle of the night when you're all cosied up in bed and get up to go for a trickle of pee
Glad I'm not the only one though

Thanks for all your responses. Can totally relate to them all! I think people who aren't pregnant think you are crazy peeing every 20 minutes but otherwise you cant relax.
