    Is bubs kicking my bladder?

    Last night I started feeling HUGE kicks accompanied with a short sharp pain in bladder area - then feeling like I was busting for a wee. He did this over & over & over again for hours.
    It took me by surprise as I've never felt that before. I'm sure he's kicking my bladder. Am I right?
    One of the harder things to deal with in pregnancy is with every new thing you experience - you wonder if it's normal!!

    Oh & he's just started again...

    Cheezel Monster I get that too LOL I just feel a little movement and all of a sudden I feel like I need to bolt to the loo!! Have been getting it for a while now, fun isn't it? I don't remember DD doing it to me when I was pg with her either, I guess they really are all different.

    I've been getting that for ages, bubs seems to think the bladder is a trampoline! (to quote another BB member) But I was on my way to my middy yesterday and I just had to keep going to the loo every half hour - DH thought it was very funny. But my middy checked where bubs was and she was fully engaged... no wonder I needed to pee all the time! But she moved out last night so I didn't have to bolt every half hour - only every hour or so...

    Yep, Cheezel Monster, bubs is definitely kicking you in the bladder.
    It has been happening to me for a while also, and sometimes I feel like I have to dash to the loo like a crazy lady , because I think I'm going to wet my pants....It's a very uncomfortable sensation, bordering on painful !!

    Yep definately your bladder copping a serve from bubs. I had it all the time until bubs turned around, now their head just bounces on my bladder with every step I take. Ahhh the joys of pregnancy.

    Yep. My boys thought it was a soccer ball. Your bladder and uterus are so so close that in the later stages, most of bubs movements put pressure on it. Just something to look forward to. LOL
