Constantly using the restroom

So, my bladder isn't what it used to be and with every pregnancy it has gotten worse. Oh the joys! This time around, I find I am using the restroom sometimes 5 times a night. Before pregnancy I would go at least twice a night but I also drink a lot of water (I workout a lot as well).

Anyone else finding the same? Its so frustrating! I just want to sleep.

I have been tested for diabetes - all good there but ugh!

Here's some advice on increased urination during pregnancy from the team at MedHelp:

You can also find this in the I'm Expecting app by adding Urination as a symptom in the Pregnancy Diary then checking the Symptoms Manual from the menu.
