Really bad pain on one side?

[TiffanyJaynexo]

In the morning I wake up dying to pee! Sometimes I don't take notice of it and fall back to sleep. I know this is bad, and it's bad that I have held the pee inside in the first place but most of the time I don't even drink before bed. Last night I didn't anyway, and today I woke up with a very very full bladder. I fell back to sleep and a while later I woke up and went to the toilet. After I had emptied my bladder, I got this extreme pain on one side of my belly. Today it was on the right side, yesterday it was on the left side.

It goes after a few minutes but it's really painful. Throughout the day I suffer with no pain from it, but if I stretch my belly or bend over, I aggravate the area and I can feel the soreness of the same area that I experienced the pain in the morning. If that makes sense? So.. Hold pee in for a few hours > Let pee out > Suffer with pain > Pain disappears after a few minutes > The area feels sore throughout the day if I aggravate it.

I know I shouldn't hold my pee in but like I said above I don't know I need to pee! I just get woken up when I REALLY need to go. I've also got my 20 week scan next week and I have to have a full bladder for it I don't want to have that pain afterwards.

What's going on? xxx

I always found when I had pains on the left that it was my stomach, like needing to poo

Not sure about the peeing though hun, have you had bladder problems over the years or just during pregnancy? x

I know what you mean, I've had it once or twice but not all the time... Maybe something to see your doc about? And when I had my 20 week scan they needed an empty bladder for it... Actually sent me out to go to the toilet twice cause it kept filling up xx

I've had a lot of urine infections in the past and they were painful sometimes! I don't think I've got a urine infection though.

I think it's just my bladder swelling or something like perhaps baby is pushing onto my bladder because it's full which makes it sore. xxx

Don't think it's an infection cause my pee doesn't smell rank
Last time I had a UTI I was in pain every second Had to go to A&E because of it (thought I might have been pregnant too - which turned out I wasn't).

I went for a wee this morning and it was a big one, but I had no pain. Don't think my bladder was as full as the other times though. xxx
