I know you're supposed to drink a ton of water during pregnancy and I try to do good at it, but I usually only get about 4 bottles of water down a day. I just think it's so boring, but I know it's needed..anyone else have trouble with water?

Try making a batch of lemon water. I bought a mini jug at Target and my husband and I just squeeze a bunch of fresh lemon juice in it and fill up bottles. I find myself getting addicted to the tangyness!
We have a seltzer maker. We just make up a bunch of plain seltzer, then just add some fresh fruit juice to our cups. Lime, lemon, muddled raspberries, orange, etc. I like the fizz and the fruit flavors!
I posted yesterday the yummy ice tea I made.
I steeped decaf green tea and lemongrass and ginger. Made a huge pitcher and added 2 raw suar cubes and chilled over night and drank it all day and night!
Be careful what flavoring powders you get. Some a full of saccharine and aspartame; which is bad for you and your baby. Try to find all natural sweeteners/flavors like the mio.
I've been drinking LaCroix. The fizz and light flavor helps keep me interested in drinking it, but there's no calories, sugar, or artificial sweeteners.
