Urinating often is one of the first signs of being pregnant. The problem lessens after the third month, but it may return during the last months because the baby is pressing against the bladder. TIPS · Drink plenty of water, milk or fruit juice. · If you have a burning or itching feeling when you urinate, contact your health care provider. · If you leak urine when you cough, sneeze or laugh, try Kegel Exercises The muscles you use when you urinate also support the bladder, uterus, and rectum. During pregnancy, these muscles have to support extra weight. If you exercise these muscles, it may keep urine from leaking and may help when you are having your baby. TIPS · Tighten the muscles around the vagina as if you are trying to stop the flow of urine. Hold, count to ten, and then relax. · Tighten 10 times in a row and do this 5-10 times a day. · Keep this habit for the rest of your life.
