Hi
I am 14 weeks pregnant and woke up this morning and could not empty my bladder eventhough it was full as I have not been up in the middle of the night eventually after and hour my partner suggested a shower which enentually worked , could the fact I have a tilted womb be causing this?

Thanks

Hi,
Welcome to ehealthforum.
Your symptom of not being able to empty bladder could be due to the tilted uterus or presence of urinary infection causing urethral spasm. Drink plenty of water, and have good diet. Include fruits and juices in your diet. Visit your gynecologist for examination, urine tests to confirm the exact cause and get started with treatment if needed.
Take care.
