Pregnancy urinary frequency increases and is normal in pregnancy as the uterus presses on the bladder while it grows. Frequency only increases and not pain. If there is pain you should consult your doctor because it might be a urinary tract infection.
Scientific Update (October 2026)
This chapter was first published in 2018 as part of the Prenatal Care Book, and has been reviewed and updated according to the latest guidelines. Key updates:
