Pressure or constant need to pee feeling?
This feeling started yesterday where I have this pressure in my lower belly/pelvis area that sort of feels like when you have to pee really really bad. I can't tell when I have to really pee or not. Anyone else get this? I keep running to the bathroom and then half the time nothing comes out! I'll be 10w tomorrow.

Re: Pressure or constant need to pee feeling?
Sounds like you have a UTI, i would call the doc, untreated can cause a kidney infection. I used to get them all the time, sounds just like UTI symptoms.

I was thinking this but I used to get them alllllll the time and I usually have burning (sorry tmi) with it as well. I guess maybe it could be different when prego though?

Re: Pressure or constant need to pee feeling?
For some reason, when pregnant women get UTIs, they usually have little or no symptoms. Go to the OB if you think you have one. There are at-home testing strips but they say you have to hold in your pee for 4 hours before testing... I'd burst!
I've had that same feeling as you several times throughout the past few weeks. I'm 10w4d today. About once or twice a week, I'll feel that pressure, like I really have to go, and then nothing happens when I'm on the toilet. It's so frustrating! But it always goes away later in the day or by the next day. And when the doc tested my urine at my checkup last week, I didn't have a UTI. I think that right now, your uterus is still really low, and depending on how it's sitting it might be pushing on your bladder. It starts moving up by the end of the first tri. Maybe you and I will get relief soon!

It could be, i would call the doc. One time i had alot of UTI symptoms, i went to my annual 2 weeks later and founf out it was BV (bacterial vaginosis) and she said it mimics a UTI. BV and UTI's are both common in pregnancy. Just a thought but i would def go see the doc.

I have / had the same thing...constant pressure. It's not a UTI (at least for me)...it's just another pleasant pregnancy symptom!
