It seems like most people I talk to get up multiple times a night to pee during their pregnancy. I haven't had this problem (yet). I drink enough - about 80-100oz/day and I even drink close to bedtime. I think it's my camel bladder going to work when I need my sleep.
Anyone else not have to get up in the middle of the night to pee while pregnant? Am I a weirdo?

Certainly not weird, just lucky!
I've had the opposite experience...I'm only 10w but every few days I'll have to get up in the early morning to pee, which has never happened before!
It may just be the fact that I am drinking lots of water all day, including right before bed, and there's more pressure on my bladder now.

Oh man, I was up like every three hours for half of pregnancy. I had to pee ALL THE TIME.

I'm only 5 1/2 weeks but i haven't really had to pee more than normal either. i usually get up in the middle of the night anyway so this is nothing new for me but i haven't noticed in increase in having to pee at all.

I pretty much slept through the night. It was rare I had to get up. I would however wake up from discomfort!

The end of my first trimester I had to get up at least once a night, but now I am able to sleep through the night at 18 1/2 weeks, but in the mornings I really have to go when I wake up!

At 34 weeks I wake up due to discomfort but thats it, unless I just cannot sleep at all I don't get up to pee at night.

Nope, my burning hands wake me up. Since I have to sit up to make them go away, I might as well pee. Until 31 weeks, I think I got up less than 10 times at night the whole rest of my pregnancy. After 32 weeks--I get up WAAAAAY too much, but rarely because I have to pee.

I didn't either thru most of my pregnancy but the last few weeks I had to get up every 2-3 hours to pee!

I didnt. Maybe once or twice my entire pregnancy. I didnt have to pee any more than normal. I carried Liv low, but she was transverse most of the pregnancy so I guess she never hit my bladder

I didn't start having to get up in the middle of the night to pee until 36 weeks or so.
Now I get up twice a night (at 39 weeks).

Lucky!! I get up at least once now at 26 weeks. But I've been starting to get up twice a night the last few nights so I guess I'll be making more bathrooms trips as I get further along in my pregnancy. sigh.

I'm only 20 weeks, but I sleep through the night! I pee all day long (and before I fall asleep) but once I'm asleep that's it.
However, if DH wakes me up in the morning when he gets up I have to go.

@mediagirl: I hardly wake up to pee! I know I did more so in the first trimester but now I usually don't have to. I also drink a lot of water and right before bed so I guess we are lucky! I'm not sure if it will change now since I'm 27 weeks but so far it's been the same!

I wish!!! Well... Near the end of my pregnancy... I get up a good 3-5 times. The joys!

At 20 weeks, I've don't usually have to get up to pee, although I do wake up pretty frequently.

You're lucky! I get up about 2x a night now. I feel like not that much comes out during the day and it all wants to come out while I'm sleeping! I drink water all day long.

During the first trimester, I got up 2-3 times a night to pee. Now (at 23 weeks), I don't always have to get up at night, although that's usually on the days I only log 5-6 hours of sleep. Any longer than that, and I definitely have to get up and go.

@mediagirl: I also lucked out. Toward the very end I maybe had to get up once in the early morning, but I am also a camel. And I'm proud to report that I still am after giving birth!

I didn't for the first 2 trimesters. Then along came the 3rd trimester... DD was sitting really low, and her head was smooshed right up against my bladder. I was used to always having a camel bladder like you... so I was really annoyed when I started needing to wake in the night to pee
