Re: no uti but horrrrrible pressure

No advice hear but wanted to offer you some huggies This baby has me up 3-4 times and night and for some reason at night I get these horrible pressure/cramp pains which makes it impossible for me to sleep. So, I guess I can somewhat relate

Re: no uti but horrrrrible pressure

Yes I was like that with dd!! Tested at least 3 times for a uti but always neg. The pressure was so intense, I refused to go to stores that didn't have a bathroom up front. I had to run to the bathroom sometimes every 15 minutes. I was even like that during my labor. It got better after dd was born.

Re: no uti but horrrrrible pressure

Are you sure it is the baby positioning and not an irritated bladder? I have had bladder issues since I was a child. I have no idea how someone who is almost 6'tall can have a narrow passages but I digress. I have to take a cranberry supplement twice a day or I have issues. It starts with the constant urge to pee and then if I ignore it I get a uti. I tried taking Vitamin Shoppe cranberry supps but they weren't as good. I have to take Cranactin. I can always tell when I have forgotten to take one.

Also this get very annoying but I was told by my urologist to try to lift your belly when you pee. Then wipe (front to back lol) then stand up. The sit back down and try to pee again (lifting belly). I am so glad there are no cameras in bathrooms. I am sure people in public bathrooms are wondering what the hell i am doing but hey it worked when i was pregnant with dd. I'm sorry you are having issues.

I'm 6 months and I get this sometimes. Mostly, I am up every 2 hours at night to pee....guess I am practicing for when baby arrives.

Re: no uti but horrrrrible pressure

On antibiotics and did pyridium for a couple days and helkped a tiny bit and now back with vengence. Went to urologist whoi catheterized me and emptied bladder(she showed me that I barely had any urine inside but felt totally full) and pain still there. She said pyridium could help but eh and that she can't give me anything else bc I am preg. Ob said pyridium only a couple daysd but she said I could do it more often. I am trying to lift belly and its not helping. I am at a complete loss. Hospital. 2 docs. 1 urologist. Equals its just the baby. Yeah ok may at 9 months not now bc I feel like I can't barely breathe. So sad ps docs r saying its baby bc on sonos he is head down on cervix and bladder
