Nocturia: I assume you mean "pee" or urinate, in which case you're describing nocturia. This is a frequent occurrence in men due to prostate enlargement but can occur in women for many other reasons such as drinking fluid btwn dinner & bedtime, venous insufficiency (swelling of legs), uncontrolled diabetes, etc. Check out http://my.Clevelandclinic.Org/disorders/nocturia/hic_nocturia.Aspx. Then go see ur doc.
