Is Frequent Urination Normal During Pregnancy?
I am 39 weeks pregnant. I aways feel like i have gotta urinate about every 10 minutes I know that is normal. When i do urinate very little comes out and it tingles a lot. I am just wondering if this could be a UTI or is this normal? I have had two UTI's in the past and it feels just like one. I have no pain just the tingling.

Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion at term the uterus puts pressure on the urinary bladder leading to increase in frequency of urination.But even in UTI there will be increased frequency of urination .And this can be confirmed by urinary examination .So I suggest you to do the test to rule out the cause.Dont worry.Take adequate fluids upto 2 to 3 litres,coconut water and cranberry juice to prevent UTI.
