  I didn't know about that formula, but good to know! I've been drinking my 60oz plus some most days, I'm happy I've been getting enough in! I usually have 64oz of water and then tea in the morning, a small juice at lunch, and some milk before bed.

  I feel like when you drink that much water, you basically *have* to do kegels to keep from peeing yourself by the 7th month.

  Just a friendly reminder from someone who needs it
  
  I found out the pruney fingers I posted about a few days ago are pretty much for sure from dehydration... my OB gave me a calculation: your weight divided by 2.5 is how much water you should be drinking in ounces! I'm struggling drinking 80oz/day for sure!

  Wow! I'm surprised the amount of water is so low! Isn't the normal rec amount 64 oz a day? If I went by this calculation, I would only have to drink 50 oz a day. Either way, it's good information and it makes my water goals easier

  I had always heard you should drink 1/2 your weight in water ... So the recommended 64 oz is really only for an "average" woman weighing around 130 lbs. I have to drink a lot more bc I'm tall and weigh more than that

  Yeah, I was skeptical of the calculation too, although 80-100 sounds about right for me. Another google search suggested just drinking half your weight, so it's a pretty close example. ::shrug:: iono.
