For some people, it is caused by tthe enlarging womb pressing onto the bladder so they feel that they need to go to the toilet at night. If your bladder is empty, you don't have to go to the loo so often. Yet in pregnancy, most need more fluid because they expire, perspire and respire a bit more and so they tend to. The only way is to drink less at night (2 hours before sleeping) to reduce fluid but not so till you're dehydrated. Sometimes it's the sleeping position. Some people have room tilted backwards (lying on the back), pressing on the bladder a little bit more and thus, are more likely to want to go toilet. Lying on your side is better.
