What You Can Do
Here are some tips for dealing with frequent urination or leaking during pregnancy:
Stay away from caffeinated drinks.
- Caffeine can make you urinate more frequently.
- Avoid beverages like coffee, tea, colas and other caffeinated drinks.
Do Kegel exercises.
- These simple exercises can help stop urine leaks by strengthening the muscles that keep the urethra (the tube where urine leaves your body) closed. They may even help prepare these muscles for labor and delivery.
- Do these exercises by squeezing the muscles you use to stop the flow of urine and holding them for 10 seconds.
- Do this 10-20 times in a row at least three times a day.
Avoid drinking fluids right before bedtime.
- Cut down on nighttime visits to the bathroom by drinking fluids earlier in the day.
- Reduce how much you drink in the early evenings and nighttime.
- But be sure to drink adequate amounts of water and juice during the day to make sure that you are not robbing your body of vital fluids.
Empty your bladder completely. To help prevent leaks, be sure that your bladder doesn’t get too full.
- Try not to “hold it” when you feel the urge to urinate. This may mean more trips to the bathroom.
- When you urinate, try leaning forward a bit in order to completely empty your bladder. Always empty your bladder before exercising
