Trouble Drinking Lots of Water

Does anyone else have this issue? I can't drink that much water. Before BFP, it sometimes takes me a whole day to finish a regular bottle of water. Now, I try to drink 5 glasses but I know that's not enough. I just can't hold that much liquid in my stomach. It makes me feel sloshy and nauseous.?

Re: Trouble Drinking Lots of Water

  • Any decaf liquid counts. I got a 32oz cup and filled it 3 times at least.

    OB said 1/2 my weight in ounces or 100oz whichever is more. I added fresh lemons, limes and oranges to mine.

  • I'm the exact same way... trying to drink enough water (never did drink much water before my BFP) and now its extra hard with the nausea. I'm doing the best I can, but that's only about two water bottles a day (34 oz).

  • I can relate even with fresh lemons it is still so hard to drink that much water, because it makes me sick.

  • I too can relate. I HATE water. Just HATE it. I can down about 2 glasses of it in the AM and then I'm done.

    I've switched to Crystal Light. Yes, I know, that's not great either...but I drank it ALL the time with DS and he's perfectly normal =D LMAO

    I don't drink a ton of it, but it sure beats water!!

  • I didn't have a problem drinking it at first, but now I have grown to hate the taste of it b/c I drink it so much. But, I get thirsty if I don't, so I have to drink it.

    Try juicy juice or gatorade.

  • I am the same exact way - I have been resorting to a 20oz bottle of juice with breakfast ( i know, lots of calories but its liquid!), then i try bottles a day, but just doesn't seem to happen.

    i just do the best I can.  I have to drink it ice cold or it makes me nauseous, so try leaving it in the freezer (or i leave it in my car thanks to the lovely weather lately).  I've tried the crystal light and gatorade thing also.

    gl!

  • I've done the Crystal lite thing too.  I hate water unless I'm absolutely thirsty.  I drink a lot of Decaf Tea, Diet Rite (Diet Rite has no caff. no calories, no sodium, no anything!)  and milk in the morning.

  • I hate water as well.  I've been mixing up some Country Time Lemonade.  I also drink juice, Fuze and Sunkist orange pop.  Having a belly full of liquid is the worst.  I'm still not where I should be.
