always thirsty??

So I have not had any cravings at all since I became pregnant and I don't eat a lot...the only thing is I am alwaysssssss thirsty. I can drink a gallon of water and still be thirsty. I thought maybe it was a diabetes thing but I was tested for that and don't have it. I also thought it was an anemic thing but I also got tested for that and I don't have that either.

Anyone else thirsty all the time???

Re: always thirsty??

  • I go through periods of always being thirsty and then never feeling thirsty. It stinks when I drink a ton of fluids because I feel like I have to pee every 5 minutes!

  • I get thirsty a lot, but I'm usually craving milk. I guess there are worse things to crave!
  • I wish I was more thirsty so I would remember to drink more! Lucky your body knows what you need.

  • Me! All day and all night. I take a bottle of water to bed with me and I pee 5 times throughout the night lol. I do it to myself so I can't complain :)

  • Ok good to know I am not the only one going through this... I worked for a woman who was a nurse and she told me that the reason you have cravings is because whatever you are craving that is what your body is lacking...so i guess if you craving milk all the time your body needs calcium (like a calcium deficiency or whatever) .... and water well i guess my body just needs more water lol.

    This!!! I think you are supposed to drink 16 cups of water a day when you are pregnant .

  • I drink at least a liter a day. I dont drink anything but water.  When I was not pregnant that is all I drank too, besides my morning coffee.
