I was running to the toilet constantly in my early weeks. Since I had thyroid issues, I was already doing regular doctor visits, and my gynac suggested a urine routine test just to rule out any UTI. Regular follow-ups are so important to catch these things early.
Actually, it is crazy how often you have to pee right from the start, yaar! I felt like my bladder had shrunk to the size of a lemon. It's just hormonal changes and totally normal, so don't worry unless you feel any burning sensation.
Because of my PCOS, I was already used to tracking every minor body change, and the frequent urination was one of my earliest signs. It is very common, but just be cautious. If you feel any pain or burning while peeing, let your doctor know immediately to avoid infections.
In the first trimester, I literally had to go to the washroom every 45 minutes, which was so hard during back-to-back office meetings. Make sure you don't cut down on water to avoid pee breaks, as hydration is key. Just plan your schedule and take quick breaks.
Oh, it was a double nightmare for me because every time I went to pee, the smell of the bathroom triggered my morning sickness! I felt like I was living in the washroom. It is completely normal to pee very often early on, just make sure you keep sipping water.
