What can I do about frequent urination during early pregnancy?

I have to go about every half hour. I am also still not getting as much water as my doctor recommends.

    Not much you can do about it. I read in a pregnancy magazine that try to drink as much as you can during the day and stay away from it at night. Well I stop about an hour before bed and i'm still up almost every hour. I'm only 10 weeks along! I can just imagine how much worse it's gonna get. lol....just hang in there

    With my last pregnancy I felt like I lived in the bathroom my whole pregnancy. I would have to go it seemed like every fifteen minutes, and forget sleeping at night because i was up all the time. Towards the end of the pregnancy I even hated going into a store because i new by the time i got from the car to the store i would have to go. The good thing is that it went away the minute i gave birth.

    HA!!! If you find out that answer, you'll become a millionaire sharing it with the rest of us.

    Nothing to do about it. But don't let it stop you from drinking water - your baby and your body really need it.

    It'll get better for a time in your second trimester, then come back with a vengence in the third.

    You will soon know the location of every bathroom within a 5 mile radius, lol. Sorry, there isn't really much you can do. It is important to take in all the fluids necessary. Best of luck.

    You need to up your intake of water to the recommended amount. Your body is building placenta, and also amniotic fluid. Just stay close to the potty and keep telling yourself that you are only pregnant for 9 months. Dehydration is dangerous for both you and your baby.

    I'm sorry, but it will only get worse as the baby grows. I hated peeing every 5 minutes, but thats how ya know you have a healthy pregnancy!:)

    just go. Nothing else to do about it. Get as much water as you can stand (I hated water for the first 2 months, now I cant get enough, lol)

    There is very little to do about it. Just make sure atleast once and hour you go or you could get a uti.
