Unable to hold bladder

Okay, not trying to get overly excited here. I'm just kinda like, "what the heck!!" Yesterday, had weird twinges through my ab area, lower back pain, and a slight temp drop. Then this morning, temp went way up, and now everytime I cough, (TMI-sorry), I squirt a little pee in my pants. I've been coughing for a week and haven't had this happen. I think it's kinda funny actually.

Also, the bumps some women get around their nips, Montgomery tubercles, I have them. I always had the dots around the nips, but now they're raised. Just noticed this today also. I'm thinking all this is way too soon, but I'm not an expert. I've been pg twice before, but never paid any attention to early signs and what-not. Too much knowledge can be a pain in the butt!!

I'm I going nuts or what????

Well.. your not nuts .. but you shouldnt be having these kinds of symptoms this early. The dribbling comes in later in pregnancy when the baby starts weighing on your bladder.The more kids you have the earlier you notice because your bladder CAN become weaker with each pregnancy but it still shouldnt happen untill atleast 4 months.The montgomery bumps (LOL) they usually dont start in untill your 2nd or 3rd trimeste

I've read in several different articles that the "bumps" are usually a sign of early pregnancy, "What to expect when you are expecting" says it usually occurs in the first trimester.

Also, frequent urination is very common early in pregnancy because it is your bodies way of getting rid of some toxins, so you might have to pee more and if your bladder is filling up more often than usual, that could explain not being able to keep it in (lol) I know what you mean though!! DO YOUR KEGAL EXCERCISE!!!

Thats just what I have heard. I hope it helps. I have the bumps on my ta-tas as well, so I am getting way excited and I shouldnt be. I dont want to set myself up for a heart breaker :)

Im with ya MOUNTS!
