Has anyone else become ice/ice water obsessed?

I swear I drink 20 glasses of ice water everyday ( which doesn't help the the constant peeing).  It has to be arctic cold with tons of ice or I wont touch it!

 Anyone else?

  • Yes me!!! Anything I drink has to be ice cold!  And my current craving is slush!  So bad for me with all that sugar, but so good!

  • Same here! I also am craving slushies and Italian ice too. I had coupons from McDonalds for a couple free new cherry berry chillers, let's just say it was heaven! I also am in love with their frozen strawberry lemonade. So not healthy or good for me, but the frozen iciness is so appealing to me right now!

  • I am ICE obsessed!  I chew ice at least twice a day.  As in, a huge, full cup of ice.  I did this with DD2 as well.  DH took a picture of me right before it was time to push and I was eating my ice chips in the hospital.  They had just gotten a new "Sonic Ice" machine and I was in heaven.  lol

  • I am not a huge water drinker, but OMG. I can not get enough water lately. And I have to have half of my cup full of ice, so I have to make as many trips to the faucet as I do the toilet. lol.

    That chiller thing sounds awesome! 

  • I usually drink a lot of water but recently ive wanted to just eat ice all day. When I got to work I filled my cup with ice and have been chewy on it all day!
  • I have always loved a nice cold glass of ice water. I have a 56oz water bottle that I fill up to the top with ice before anything.

  • Me too .. the ice water non stop and I eat the ice when the waters gone! Then I keep going down the road to buy icey's too! Your right too if the water isn't mega cold I won't touch it either! 

    Oh and the peeing .. I swear I have to pee every ten minutes!

  • I have to drink at least 3-4 32 oz.glasses a day, ice cold. Big Smile
  • I always have to drink things ICE cold and yes, lately I have a craving for ice cold water more than ever. I also have switched from ice cream to italian ice and cold fruits as well-I think part of it is the summer and just wanting things to be cold.

    Ice water with slices of lemon is my weakness.  I love to drink it out of my camel back water bottle.  Yummm. 

    This is me. I am so in love with ice water with lemon right now I probably fill my water bottle at work 20 times a day!

  • I was going to ask my OB about this. I think I read that craving ice was bad, but what about ice water? (Sorry if anyone answered this question... I haven't read all the responses yet). I absolutely have been going through tons of ice because the water needs to be COLD! Glad I'm not the only one.
