I have started keeping a pee/fluid intake diary purely out of boredom and hopefully so one day I will see a massive jump in my peeing which will OF COURSE be an early PG sign!!

I was quite surprised how much I wee in a day, if someone had asked me before today how much I went I would say 2-3 times day. But not including at home since I have been at work I have been 5 times!! I have had 2 large glasses of water and 2 pepsi max (yes I know its naughty but I need it) so does it really warrant all that peeing?

Anyway I just wondered how often others go, it could be quite normal and i could always go that much but have never paid attention before

Hey MM, atm I blow your peeing out of the water. Lately I've been going nearly every hour & I need to get up at least once during the night. So far today it's been at least 7 times.

Yeah I prob got about 5 times at work. Then b4 & after work it depends on what I'm doing & where I am. I'd say on average 10 times a day. I drink nearly 2 lts of water a day, plus glass of juice 4 breakfast & lunch, then either lemon squash or something else for dinner. So, that does keep me going to the loo!

how much are you drinking? I have only been "tracking" it today but I am wondering if my peeing is commensurate with my fluid intake.

I can't get enough fluid in at the moment though am ALWAYS thirsty!!!

Cold weather seriuosly doesn't help either. I just had to go again & I'd only just been 30 mins ago.

Man I am glad I am not the only one that pee's heaps:o....I probably go about 10-15 times a day, but I am drinking nearly 3 litres of water a day too:yes:

I am the big brunt of the joke when we go 4wding with out friends, they all put bets on how long it will be before I have to pee.....

I don't mind because we have some girls in our group that just refuse to pee in the wild ( as I call it) they hold on all day...

So when I get back in the car I get on our cb radio and go " aaaaahhhhh that is so good" silly girls trying to hold it in:laughing:

do you think the very fact we are now aware of our peeing makes us pee more?

omg how do they do it? it would get beyond the point you can even move let alone jiggle along a 4wd track!!!

MEKISS

Probably.

I can't hold on for very long, when I gotta go I gotta go. Plus I find if I do hold on for too long I end up with a UTI.

I know:confused:...they go if they really have to but not much...I go every 1/2 hour or so when we are 4wding:laughing:

i have always had the issue that it doesnt matter if I pee before I leave work (previously school) the MOMENT i see my house in sight my bladder starts to burn and I can barely make it up the stairs in the front door round all the animals scrabbling at me to the loo on the otherside of the house without wetting myself.

Have ALWAYS done it. I have perfected the tight knees together geisha-like shuffle down the hallways

Oh what a lovely thread you have started :laughing:

I am also the brunt of jokes... I pee A LOT... Not as much as I used to though... I was monitoring it at one stage and went about 15 - 20 times a day! Now I'd say I go a max of 10 times...

Actually I just realised I gotta go pee pee now... :laughing:

HelenHasTwins

omg you have to tell me more
so I can tell my mother
she has always thought I was insane with the peeing

we were on holiday last month and I heard her saying to my husband as I rushed past them to the loo "she has ALWAYS done that" I could hear her rolling her eyes too I am sure of it!!!

when a girls gotta go shes gotta go!!!! I was in the navy and have been known to pee hanging my butt off the side of the boat and holding on to the chain rail for dear life in choppy water!!!!

that worked quite well cause if the waves were high I got rinsed as well!!! :laughing:

It was on Oprah, a day when that doctor was there, I can't remember his name....they were actually talking about people that will only poo on their own toliet:laughing: and they called it "safe toilet syndrome" for real....I just thought it sounded funny, not sure if it has to do with peeing, but you can tell your Mum it does, so she leaves you alone:yes:

megaminz :laughing::laughing: thats fantastic im crying from laughing so much.
but seriously it is an actual medical disorder and can be fixed. that is if you have the urge to go frequently but cant like its a trickle, if you get up more then once at night, i used to pee up to 5 times a night :hair: so if its really bad go get checked.
my mum torments me too i run into the house hi mum straight to toilet she doesnt even try to hug me till i've been to the loo :laughing:

I think mine is psychological...I can go for hours without peeing then metres away from safety it becomes a life threatening emergency.

dh has given up trying to kiss me when i come in the front door, he just opens it for me takes whatever I am carrying then stands aside.....

Ah this is just so funny, this topic! :D
I remember when I was a little girl anytime I went to the hospital to visit people I'd always have to pee & very urgently. I do remember it was when I visit ppl that had just had babies, so may be I was feeling all those urges to pee hehe

It is very healthy for you to pee more than I'd say 5 times a day. Just think of all the yucky toxins you're getting outa your system. Also if you're drinking a lot of water, it helps to flush out all your insides & it makes my skin look so good!

I've got IBS (irritable bowel syndrome) & if i'm having a bad day with that, I'll be peeing more often. basically cause my bowel is inflamed & pushing on my ovaries, which the pain can move to my bladder area, hence feeling the need to pee more.

lol i'm like that on long trips in the car i am fine then i see rest stop 500m ahead and feel like i am going to explode

pb same with me i have crohns disease and when i am having a bad day my bowel pushes onto my uterus and bladder, when i had the cystoscopy they found inflammation in my bladder which they said was from the crohns trying to attach my bladder and bowel glad to know i'm not the only one

I'm probably more worried about having to poo then wee. We DH & I went to Canada all I was worried about is if they had lots of public toilets for when I needed to poo!

02-04-2008, 15:42
okay i just went 1hr30without peeing and it was dire...nearly wet myself on the walk there. I did have another glass of water in that time so 1.5hrs was pretty good for me to hang out.

Good girl MM.

It's so bad when you're really busting & you can't use your hands to help you hold on. Everytime I do that my DH cracks up & asks the obvious "are you busting, why do you wait so long to go?" He never gets a reply as I flash straight past him, still holding on & then try to grapple with the door handle with one hand & the other still holding on & trying to undo my pants at the same time.

:yes:yep and grabbing onto your undies at the same time like pulling them real tight makes any difference :laughing:
