How much water??
I've been trying to drink a lot of water, typically I'm not a good drinker and now I'm carrying twins. My job is also very physical. How much water should I typically be drinking per day? How many bottles of the regular Poland spring? Tia!

Re: How much water??
I just landed myself in the hospital last week with contractions and it turns out I needed fluid and I was told I need to be drinking AT LEAST 80 ounces a day -

Re: How much water??
Oh boy! So that's at minimum 5-6 bottles of water. I should drink more when I'm running around at work. I should just submerge myself in a tub lol!

How much water??
I was on a diet last year that required me drinking 128 oz a day but since i'm already feeling so bloated all the time, I'm struggling to get in 80 ozs a day. I downloaded a water log app last year that really helped motivate me to get my water in. Set little goals for each hour. I peed ALL THE TIME but it was good practice for being preggo and peeing all the time hahahhaaha

ITA! You can also switch it up with seltzer. I thought I was drinking enough water because I was getting about 3 24oz bottles full daily- I guess I need to up my intake to at least 4!!

Re: How much water??
Dr said to drink enough water so that your urine is very light.

Same here. I bought a few camelbak bottles and they have a wide straw which helps so much. I never drank anywhere near enough until I got those.

Re: How much water??
I am lucky if I have like 3-4 glasses max per day. I don't have time to drink or pee at work hehe. Thankfully I didn't seem to have any issues with it last pregnancy.

I struggle with this,but I find when I don't drink much I get more leg cramps, I cough, I wake up in the middle of the night dehydrated... So that's helped motivate me. It can also keep down swelling.
