Frequent Urination

TRANSCRIPT

Nurse Goodwin

Hi, I’m Bev Goodwin, nurse mid-wife. You’ll probably find that you need to urinate more often during the first trimester of your pregnancy. This is largely due to the extra work your kidneys are doing to rid your body of waste products and toxins. Your kidneys are now working for two — you and your baby. We suggest you drink at least two quarts of water a day to replace the fluids that you lose.
