Ok, ladies! This a crazy question that I just want to see if anyone has experienced. I can't figure out why in the last month I have had to urinate every night about 6 times a night!! It is driving me crazy, it feels like I am pregnant again! But, I just don't think that is possible as I am on the pill and will take my last hormone pill before I go on the sugar pill tomorrow? I really hope I am not as a. I have been on the pill, b. I haven't been trying to get pregnant and just am not ready yet, c. Haven't been taking prenatal vits, d. Have drank wine on occasion etc.... all things that scare the heck out of me if I were pregnant! Also, I don't remember having to urinate this much so early on in the last pregnancy?? I haven't changed anything in my life style. I haven't had signs or symptoms of a urinary track infection? I just can't figure it out?? Any ideas? I am going to try to stop drinking liquids so late in the evening and cut down on my salt intake. But, like I said before, both of those things haven't increased so I just can't figure it out:(

What can I do next?

You might have a UTI, unrinary tract infection. If you drink cranberry juice it should get better!!

Sometimes...I repeat SOMETIMES your bladder is "missplaced" after having a baby. This puts your bladder in an ackward position and causes frequent urination. Reguardless if this is the reason or not, if you are urinating this much, you need to see your doctor asap.

Sometimes this can be a sympom of diabetes. You might want to check out the other symptoms to see if you have any.

Just another thought to throw out there is over-active bladder. I have that and I usually make anywhere from 4 ( a good night) to 10 ( a bad night) trips to the bathroom. No UTI's had it checked, no diabetes, just lots of trips to the bathroom. They have me do kegals to help strengthen things up and ity really helps. There are also things they can do to make sure that all of your part are where they should be. Also with my over active bladder I tend to have 2-3 really bad nights right before i start my cycle. It is another thought if your frequency continues.

You may be diabetic. You'll need to go to your doctor and schedule a test. Its a glucose test and it takes about 5 hours. Here is a link to symptoms.

hi i know the feeling! with all three of my pregancey i got preg on the pill. three diffrent kinds and three diffrent babies later lol, if you have no other "im preg" signs then there is a chance you may have a bladder infections. not all UTI's hurt when you pee but make you have to pee all the time. i get them all the time. i would go get it checked out just in case you dont want to get a bad one they are no fun! good luck!

I can relate. I've had the same thing happen to me off and on. Mostly it seems to coincide with me loosing weight or detoxing. Although one time I had it for about 5 months right after curing this really bad bladder infection.
Might be a good idea to have it checked out by a doc just to be safe (I've heard the diabetes thing too and Don't let them put you on that overactive bladder drug if possible--not good for you), but chances are it will prolly go away soon. :)

This can be a symptom of a few other things such as diabetes so If it is a problem I would go ahead and see your Dr for a check up.

I would definitely go and see your doctor. I've had UTIs with no symptoms at all until blood appears. Diabetes is also a possibility. Good luck!

you should see a doctor and have your blood sugar checked because frequent urination could be a sign of diabetes.

My first guess is that you might be pregnant. Take a test or call your doctor.
