Is it normal for the fetus to press on the bladder?

Patient's question:

Doctor,
I am 7 months pregnant, and recently I've been experiencing a feeling of urgency to urinate whenever I bend over or walk more. Is this because the baby's head is pressing on my bladder? I thought this kind of symptom would usually occur after the 8th month. Is it not normal for me to be experiencing this now?
Thank you!

Doctor's answer:

Normal. Review B-ultrasound. First, you must maintain a positive and optimistic attitude.
