If you’re pregnant and feel like you’re spending half your day in the bathroom, you need to know that frequent urination is one of the most common (and completely normal) pregnancy symptoms.
Here’s why it happens...
In early pregnancy, hormones increase blood flow to your kidneys and pelvic area, helping your body process fluids more efficiently. As your baby grows, the uterus puts extra pressure on your bladder - meaning it takes less fluid to make you feel full.
Later in pregnancy, when the baby drops lower into the pelvis, the pressure increases again.
While it’s usually harmless, don’t ignore any pain, burning, or changes in urine color - those could be signs of an infection.
Stay hydrated, take your time, and know this is just another sign that your body is doing exactly what it should. ❤️
