23/24 weeks pregnant and making a 6 hour drive. do i have to stop and walk around? if so how often?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Good idea!: It is a good idea to stop, walk around and empty your bladder after 3 hours of car driving so that you avoid a UTI, and undue bladder pressure from the rising uterus.
