Cannot stop drinking water...

MrsL1022 · February 2012

I know I need to drink a TON of water but I seriously cannot satisfy my thrist. I have had 1/2 a gallon of water today alone and am still going strong. Has anyone else felt like this? I am pounding glasses of water and can't stop.

I had to drink water like that because I started getting frequent Braxton Hicks around 20 weeks. I couldn't drink enough water. I think you're okay.

I'm always thirst even non-pg but it's worse when pg. I wake up in the mornings and down a huge thing of water.

I have been like that with both pregnancies. I could not drink enough water. I wouldn't worry, it's your body's way of telling you that you need more.

I've noticed I've been the same way with this pregnancy, and I don't remember it with Matthew.

I drank a lot of water with Colin but not at this constant rate. I have been waking up at night drowning myself in water. I just can't get enough. Glad it's normal b/c I was starting to think that this was getting a little ridiculous. I guess my body is making up for the 1st tri where I ate and drank next to nothing. Thanks for the reassurance.

I'm the opposite

I feel bad because I don't have the desire to drink water. I drink as much as I can, but I know I should be drinking more... now I feel bad Sad

I have felt like this since the beginning of the year. I have been drinking upwards of a gallon a day and I still feel thirsty all the time. I'm almost ready to call the dr.

Bet that's fun with you already having to get up to go to the bathroom so much.

Yeah between the drinking and peeing there is not a whole lot of sleeping happening.

I was the same way. I even called my doctor thinking something had to be wrong with me. Guess your body just needs more water right now. For me it w the worst at night.

I was the same way when I was pg especially at night.

I've been drinking a ton of water too and I've found that drinking some Gatorade helps me feel "quenched" a little bit better. I water down the Gatorade so I'm not drinking that all day but just that little bit of flavor helps a lot, I think.

I feel exactly the same way!! So thirsty!! I have heard it's even worse once baby comes when you breastfeed.
