I am 19-weeks pregnant and having pain after going to the bathroom, is this normal?

You might want to check with your doctor if you have a bladder infection. If you have pain in your lower back it could also be a kidney infection. Your best bet is to schedule a visit to your OBGYN.

No. Pain isn't a normal thing. It's your body's way of trying to tell you something is wrong. You probably have a Urinary Tract Infection. They are rather common during pregnancy. Go to the doctor and have a urine test done to see if that's what it is.

Its not normal to have pain at 19 weeks. You better visit your doctor and explain to the doctor what type of pain you are experiencing.

This could be very normal, but I would recommend you take it easy, drink plenty of fluids/water, and relax. Try to contact your OB/GYN for peace of mind.

You probably have a Urinary Tract Infection. They are much more common during pregnancy which is one of the reasons they test your Urine every time you go to appointments.

It can be normal, depending on the amount of pain. If it is just pressure it's probably just from the weight of the baby and sac. If it is to painful you should probably see a doctor it could be a Urinary Tract infection or something similar. If you bleed at all definetley see a doctor.

Any extreme pain should be discussed with your doctor, but during pregnancy, unfortunately discomfort sometimes seems ever present and increasing.
