Ob nurse says I'm dehydrated and my urine culture has show that the last 3 visits. I feel like I drink water all day though! Should I start drinking Gatorade?

Re: Dehydrated
Gatorade has a lot of uncessary sugar. Did she say how much you should be drinking? How much are you drinking? Unless you are keeping track it's very easy to just assume you're drinking enough. My goal is 80 ounces a day and that seems to work for me.
Also, when are your appts? Mine are usually earlyish morning so all I've had to drink is maybe 5 oz with breakfast and my pee is still pretty gold colored at my appts. Perhaps it's just too early and you haven't really begun drinking yet?
