water intake

I am drinking about 60 to.70 ozs of water per day but I still wake up feeling dehydrated and like I partied hard the night before. WTH. It makes it hard to wake up.

How much water are you drinking?

Re: water intake

  • I'm only drinking about 60 ounces on good days. I think I need go drink more because I produce more milk when I drink more, but I keep forgetting.

  • I drink 60 to 80 oz of water plus 40 to 60 oz of diet soda or flavored seltzer. I pretty much always have some kind of drink with me, and I keep water next to my bed and drink throughout the night. I do this even when I'm not BFing though.

  • I had been drinking around 60-70oz while on ML, but since being back to work I'm drinking more like 90oz.  My milk supply has gone up because of it!!

  • I drink around 80 oz but I also drink anytime I'm up at night

    because I get thirsty. Even if LO sleeps a good stretch, I'm

    often up going to the bathroom before he wakes up and I

    drink more then.

  • I drink anywhere from 60 oz. on a bad day to 90 oz. on a good day. I have a water bottle by my side day and night. I am an EBF and when I haven't had enough to drink I notice a difference in my supply.
