Is it normal to wee all the time
when pregnant?
This is a very common symptom of pregnancy especially
in the first trimester and can happen as early as one
week after conception. As the progesterone level rises
and the embryo starts to produce HCG, blood supply to
your pelvis increases and this causes pelvic congestion.
Your uterus takes up more space now, thereby putting
pressure on your organs, your bladder included. The
bladder becomes irritable and tries to expel the smallest
quantity of urine; this is one reason why most women
frequent the washroom only to pee in very small quantities.
Congestion is worsened by the extra blood vessels and
blood flow developing in the pelvis because of the placenta.
All this changes in the second trimester only to return
in the third trimester when there is serious space shortage.
To deal with this problem, don't try to cut back on
your water intake; however you can drink more in the
day time and lessen in the evenings to reduce the number
of trips to the toilet.

But what if it hurts to pee…
There is reason to be concerned if you get a burning or
stinging feeling when you pee a lot; bring this to your
doctor's attention. You may have a bladder infection or
UTI which needs treatment with antibiotics. If left untreated,
it can trigger premature labor. In the meantime drinking
cranberry juice provides relief.
Handy Bathroom tip you can
use…
Empty your bladder totally each time you visit the washroom.
If you think you have finished, sit still for a second
and try to go again.

usually starts around 4-6 weeks and lasts hroughout
the first trimester and may even stretch beyond
the first 12 weeks of pregnancy ..
