do u wake up to pee in the middle of the night?

[DefDC]

I had an iron bladder all the way until 34. Now I occasionally wake up. Not quite as iron on a road trip either.... Stupid aging....

Yes, and I've been doing it more as I've been getting older.

QFT!
When that ole prostate swells, it makes it hard to get a good night's sleep.
I sometimes get up 5 or more times a night!

 

[Amused]

Welcome to the wonderful world of the enlarged prostate.

I haven't slept through a night more than a handful of times in a decade.

 

[waggy]

i have found getting old sucks. i want to be young again..

 

[Jack Ryan]

If you are properly hydrated, getting up once a night isn't a bad thing.

 

[dbk]

Not quite at that age.....yet.

lately for me, it's becoming more regular.

Has you frequency increase regardless of the time? Are you thirsty more then normal? If you answer yes to these question, you might want to get you sugar level check. Classic signs of a diabetic.

 

[Kelemvor]

Not usually but lately I have been off and on. Normally it's like 3AM when i wake up. I get up at 5:30 anyway so sometimes I just don't worry about it.

 

[middlehead]

In general, no. After heavy drunkery, yes.

 

[queenrobot]

If I have too, but usually not.

 

[oddyager]

No. Unless I drank alot or ate anything very juicy like watermelon.

 

[ViperVin2]

For most nights, I wake up twice to take a piss. Its annoying and messes with my sleep, but I like to drink a lot of water through out the day.

 

[ForumMaster]

no. i don't wake up at night. my stupid body will just wake up at 6-7 and my bladder will be really full.

Funny you should say that, but I don't have an enlarged prostate and I'm not diabetic, yet when I turned 45 I suddenly could no longer sleep through the night even if I restricted water intake a couple of hours before bedtime. Yes, getting old is hell.

Not only will an enlarged prostate cause middle of the night urges to wake you, but fewer and or weaker erections while sleeping will do the same.

Getting an erection while sleeping is a defense against urinating while sleeping. This is what causes "morning wood." As your occurrences of "morning wood" decline your need to get up and pee during the night increases.

 

[AMCRambler]

Yup. In your butt.

I wanted nothing more than to be called limp dicked in a sober and serious manner today.

A flaccid thanks to you, sir.

When I lived in the desert and chugged down a gallon a day I was always peeing in the night.

Since I left the heat and cut down on water consumption I havent had to.
But when I wake up in the morning, WHOA BOY!!

If I've drank a lot yeah, and at the same time I'll chug some water. Otherwise, no.

Theres nothing better than chugging water in the middle of the night after drinking.
