What Causes Frequent Urination During Pregnancy?

I am just over 3months pregnant with my 4th child. I cannot stop going to the bathroom especially at night time and it is making it hard for me to sleep. I had a silent uti (my first) about 4-5months ago and took antibiotics which cured it. I have no symptoms now other than frequent urination and difficulty emptying my bladder. Could it be another uti? I am concerned because my children have all been born prematurely (no known cause) and I don't want to develop a kidney infection.

Hello!
Thanks for your query.
Having to pee a lot is especially common during the first and last trimester.
But we cant exclude an UTI .
You should go to do a urine analysis to rule out any UTI.
If your urine analysis will be negative try to take less water before sleep.
Take care of your self
