    I have this a lot at night. I asked one of my friends who has 2 kids and she said she was the same way. Her dr told her it was likely she was sleeping with her mouth open. Its the body's way of getting more oxygen to the baby while you sleep.

    That's interesting, I didn't know that. I'm definitely having this issue too.

    I thought my doctor said it was because your body is pumping all this extra blood..I hate being this thirsty.

    I've been super thirsty too.  I'm having quite the opposite of dry mouth though.  I wasn't expecting that!

    I'm 5 weeks and have been experiencing dry mouth for the past two weeks. I try to drink as much water as possible, but it doesn't seem to help.
