a.m. frequency

[mags]

Does anyone else seem to experience alot of frequency in the mornings? I have frequency all day but have noticed that about the first 2 hours after i get up in the morning, it is especially bad. Just wondering if anyone else had this problem.

Yes I do. Frequency is not really a symptom for me - I"m in the pelvic pressure/pain group, at my worst I probably pee about 10 times a day. But I've noticed that I go more frequently from 7 until about noon. I think it may be from all the liquid I drink at breakfast - 2 glasses of water to re-hydrate and with medication/vitamins, milk on cereal, blueberry juice, 2 cups of tea - a lot for the old bladder to handle. I've also read that when we sleep our bodies secrete a chemical to make us pee less (although I think a lot of ICN members would disagree about that LOL), and when we wake up our kidneys get busy processing that stored-up urine.

Well normally mornings are my most acidic urine....which effects me for a while. I think mornings being bad is very common. I usually begin each day with a calcium suppliments...the extra water is possibly a good idea too but I think Prilosec OTC that I take at night helped me.

I have noticed that as soon as I wake up it is to the bathroom, but I take prescriptons to sleep and according to my husband I am out and totally unaware of any urges my body may be signaling. Thusfar no accidents.
