How many of you all are REALLY drinking eight 8-ounce glasses of water a day?

Question

I'm 31 weeks and just started putting in a real effort to drink water in order to calm down these Braxton-Hicks.  Just curious to see how many women really drink that much water regularly.

Answer

Some days I do, but most days I don't get to the full amount.  However, my pee is always very pale or clear so I think that means I'm hydrated enuf, but will keep trying for the full amount anyway.

Answer

I drink more than the recommended amout..go figure that at my last appointment I was told I was a little dehydrated and needed to drink even more! I drink water all day long, so idk what else to do lol

Answer

Some days are better than others. That's all I have to say. 😂 granted, me urine is a nice light color, almost clear with a hint of neon (clearly I'm getting enough vitamins and minerals too).

Answer

Im addicted to water. I always even before pregnancy though drink so much water.

Answer

I live in the So Cal desert where the weather is about 110 degrees. So I'm always craving ice cold water. I fill up a 16oz cup at least 4-5 times a day.

Answer

I make a huge effort to. I just bought a 40oz water bottle and carry it around with me so I remember to drink. I usually get 80oz or more a day.

Answer

I bought myself a nice water bottle and I keep it in the fridge and fill as needed.  I'm picky and will only drink cold water.  I find this new water bottle has helped me consume so much more water than I normally do as my kids often leave the water jug in the fridge empty but they don't touch my water bottle

Answer

I'm addicted to drinking anything. It's really bizarre and I have no medical reason for it like an endocrine issue. Some people love chewing gum, eating, or smoking..... I love drinking. Not alcohol, ever. But water, yes all day long. I know it's possible to over drink too, so I'm always mindful of that. :)

Answer

It's so hot that I drink alot of water!
