Anyone else doing this?!

I seriously can't seem to get enough water! I can't drink it during the day though. I drink 2-3 cans of diet coke then I switch to water forcing it. But when I sit down for the night to rest I can't seem to drink enough ICE COLD water! It's insane. The result is making me have to get up more during the night to use the bathroom lol but then I continue drinking it even in the middle of the night. This is baby #6 and none of the other pregnancies was I like this! It's insane! Lol

    YES!  Exactly this.  I drink the most at night too and it's almost like I feel faint and sick if I don't get cold water.  Loads and loads of it.  I will suck down 2-3 32oz. glasses easy within an hour or so.  And then yep, up and down all night.  I can't help it though!!

  • YES! Ice cold water has never tasted as good as it does before bed! I can't get enough of it in the evenings/nights. Its so annoying because I know I will be up a couple times a night but it tastes soooo good! I always wondered why at night it seems to taste so much better than during the day?!

    Same! I have to force it in me during the day but at night it is endless!
  • We're going through a case of 24 waters in less than a week! My husband asked today, "are you a fish?"
  • It could be your diet during the day that's making you very thirsty at night. The only time I get that thirsty before bedtime is when I eat tacos or pizza that day. Anything with a lot of salt. But that could just be me.

    Also I wonder if the diet coke is making you thirsty.
  • You could try adding flavor to the water during the day.  I love the little squeeze bottles and keep a few at my desk at work.

    I'm the opposite. I drink a ton of water during the day while I'm at work, but then I slack off when I get home. It's probably because we have a filtered water/ice machine at work.. I just need one at home now. Lol

  • I drink a lot of water in the daytime, but feel really thirsty just before bed. I usually end up with ice cold milk to quench my thirst, but it doesn't help with the toilet trips!
  • I was like that the first three months. Not so much now.
  • I'm the opposite, I wake up crazy thirsty, by the end of the day I'm pretty waterlogged/sick of running to the bathroom so I taper off before bed.  Trying to train Hubs to put the Brita filter back in the fridge (he leaves it next to his computer when he goes to bed), because cold water feels sooooo good in the morning (and makes the baby kick!  Wheee!)
