Not enough water

Anyone else having a tough time drinking water?? I usually don't have a problem drinking it, but lately it disgusts me and makes m/s sooo much worse. I have to force myself to drink some. Bleh!

Re: Not enough water

  • i have had this same problem going on for a few weeks. M/S was getting so bad, i could not eat and could not drink water. I have resorted to drinking gatorade or even water with those crystal lite type things. It has made huge difference!!

  • M/s makes water almost Undrinkable for me and its normally just about all I drink. But things like sparkling la croix with or without flavor work very well. No sugar or artificial sweeteners in those.

  • Ditto PPs on the sparkling water. I've been enjoying cranberry-lime.


                                                         
  • Agree with adding some type of flavor. The straw is also a great idea! Sometimes something even that small makes a big difference.

  • Water and related never worked for me in my last pregnancy.  I had to do lemonade and gatorade, and vary the flavors.  I was very sick.  I remember for things they would say, "drink 2 L of water in 5 minutes before this test" or whatever, and I would drink it and then throw it all up.
  • Same here. Drank Gatorade last night.

  • Me! The thought of drinking water makes my stomach turn. I've tried room temp, ice cold, warm, hot. I've just been drinking Gatorade for now but I must try sparkling flavored water as pp suggested!!!
  • Water doesn't make me feel sick, but I'm just sipping on it even when I'm not that thirsty. I know it's good for me, but I'm tired of it already. Pass the glass of red wine please...oh wait.

  • Definitely have the same problem drinking water. :( I am trying to put lemon and lime juice in the water. That helps some. :( Good luck to everyone else!

  • Thanks for the ideas! Gonna send DH out to get some frozen fruit. He bought me some of that mio (?) squeeze in flavor stuff, that seemed to help get it down a little easier.
  • I slice fresh oranges and stick it in my mason jar at work. I just refill it all day and it gives my water a boost of flavor.

  • Don't forget water flavoring stuff has artificial sugar in it like aspartame and sucralose that we shouldn't have... :( Crystal Lite Pure is okay to drink, nowhere around me carries it though. :( I hate drinking plain flavored water unless it's bottled.

  • Ugh, I've been adding water flavoring. Not that it has helped much. I've found that I have to drink water ice cold or tea steaming hot. As soon as it even starts to not be at one of those extremes, the smallest sip makes my stomach turn. Crazy?

  • Coconut sparkling water!! If I pretend real hard, it tastes like a pina colada.
