Warning: Pregnancy complaints ahead.
Every morning, I marvel at the capacity of the human bladder. After some cursory research, it's about one liter, give or take a few ounces. So with a growing uterus squishing my bladder and all the extra blood volume in my bod, it's no wonder I feel like I have about five times that amount when I awake in the night, sometimes four times, and stumble toward the toilet. Is it mother nature's cruel little joke of getting us "used" to the overnight feedings? That's one theory.
I just want my sleep.

About me
- Josephine
- Jensen Beach, FL, United States
- I am a mother of two boys and an avid workout partner to my handsome other half. We love fitness, family time and healthy eating. What came before Beach Body? Sluggishness, unhappiness and an overweight physique that affected my self esteem and moods. It affected my children. Why am I real? I am very no-frills, I know my limitations and I make mistakes. I focus on progress, continuous education and learning. I am on this new fitness path for life, so I'm always ready for new tips on how to enjoy it.

What amazes me is that I don't drink or eat anything after 6pm, yet I'm up peeing gallons all night long. I go at least twice before bed and then every two hours after that. It's insane! Where's it all coming from? I feel like I should be shriveling up like a raisin.
i wouldn't doubt that all the peeing is basically "boot camp" for the overnight feedings and whatnot. haha.
You will get your sleep in eighteen years!hehehe ;) No wait a minute. Mine are 19 & 22 and I still worry about'em. Ahhh, the job of a parent!
HA! Amy, hoo boy, I drink water all the way up until I go to sleep. Guess I'm glad (?) to hear that's not the cause?!!
Barb, my cousin also said my house will be clean again ... someday.
