Im 7 weeks and literally running to the washroom every hour, even at night cant sleep properly. Is this how much it normally is in the beginning? curious how often it was for u all.
Yaar, early pregnancy was literally like living in the washroom, actually! I had to pee every 30-40 minutes, especially at night. It's super annoying but totally a normal part of the deal.
Oh, I was running to the washroom literally every hour during early pregnancy! It's totally normal due to hormonal changes and increased blood flow. Just keep drinking water and don't hold it in.
Actually, my gynac told me that the hormone hCG increases blood flow to your pelvic area, which makes you pee much more often right from the start. I was going almost every hour. It's totally normal unless you feel pain or burning.
I peed a lot, but since I had gestational diabetes, my doctor also had me check if the frequent urination was linked to my blood sugar levels. If you feel it's excessive or if you have burning, do consult your doctor.
It is just your body adjusting to the new life growing inside. I used to go very frequently too, especially during the night. Stay positive, accept these small changes, and take good care of your health.
In my experience, I was waking up 3-4 times every night just to pee in the first trimester. It was exhausting but got a bit better in the second trimester. Every pregnancy is unique, so see how your body feels.
I felt like I was using half the toilet paper in the house early on! But seriously, if you also feel burning or pain while peeing, get a urine culture test done. It's a cheap and standard test but very important to rule out UTIs early.
