What makes women pee so much when preggo

[Latrice414]

Ok, im in the tww 6dpo but i dont think im preggo. I have been peeing a lot, can you have a uti without any burning or vaginal drainage.

Also what is it that causes the women to pee a lot during early stages of conception?

Im confused on whats going on with my body

Yes you can have a UTI without the painful urination or burning. I get them like that very often. I usually have to pee very often and only a small amount comes out, despite how bad I feel like I have to go. I also experiance a slight increase in discharge when I have a UTI.

The reason you pee so often in pregnancy is because of the added pressure your growing uterus puts on the bladder. Also, there's some hormonal issues associated with it, though I don't recall all the details.

I am not to sure whay you have to pee alot in the very early stages of pregnancy. I do know that in the first trimenster when the baby and uterus are still very low in your pelvis is presses on your bladder and makes it smaller and squashed and you therefore need to pee more often, the the second tri the baby and uterus usually move further up this takes some of the pressure of your bladder and the feeling goes a way a bit (although in both my pregnancies the need continued throughout my whole pregnancy).  I think it really depends on how you are carrying, i was and am quite low so i am always feeling the baby kick my bladder and the constant need to go.  In the third tri, well there just isn't much room left anywhere and so everything is squashed and uncomfortable.
