See this....

We are not getting along lately! I know it is good for me and the baby, even when I am not pregnant, but seriously, the more I drink the more I pee. I sometimes think...if I don't drink it, I won't have to pee as much. I mean, why drink something that is going to come out of your body in less than 10 minutes?
However this baby is sitting, I think he/she is putting a lot of pressure on my bladder. I have never had to pee so much, during either of my past two pregnancies. I didn't have to wake up early in the morning to pee, until my 7th month. The past 3 days I have woken up at 5:00 am and not been able to fall back asleep, until I went to the bathroom. Ugh...who wants to get out of a warm bed....to sit on a cold toilet seat?! (this is where I wish I could pee standing up)
If I told you I stood on my head today, to see if that would help the baby switch positions, would you believe me? Well, I guess you'll have to take my word for it, but let me tell you, it didn't work. (though I do still have my awesome head-stand abilities, even being 5 1/2 months pregnant)
I am hoping that the water and I can get to be better friends pretty soon. I know I don't want my body to go into early contractions, because of dehydration, so we are going to have to find some way to get along.

Bummer, I know what you mean though. Except I always feel like I need to go then I don't and its because he's laying on my bladder like its a bean bag chair made perfectly for him. I hope your urge to go gets better!
Maybe try some of those packets you sprinkle in water to make it taste better and then....well...nevermind...you'd still have to pee just as much! I remember those days, which too shall pass!
Oh yes I totally know how you're feeling. I've tried everything during my pregnancies to change positions :) Fun times!
I feel for you. I started having contractions at 27 weeks. Turned out I was dehydrated. The doc's orders? One gallon of water A DAY! Talk about having to pee! And Ethan started low and stayed low throughout the whole pregnancy!
