Question

I struggle with drinking the right amount of water everyday. I always finish 2-3 a day, but after that I get home and chill. I forget to drink my water or anything until I am feeling parched. I am scared that it is going to affect my amniotic fluid. 
How can I make myself drink more and enjoy it? Or just drink more lol

Honestly I can't really drink any water. It makes my morning sickness so bad and I end up throwing everything up. I just drink what I can and drink a lot of clear juices like cranberry juice and apple juice. Its better to get liquids then to get dehydrated

Answer

I've been extra thirsty this pregnancy but my last pregnancy, I'd go to Sonic and get the big 44 oz. water with lemons and limes. I also dont stress over actual ounces. Drink when you are thirsty. Our bodies are pretty amazing at telling us what we need. You could also do crystal light, or some other drink like that.

Answer

There are great apps you can get to remind you to drink water. Or set an alarm on your phone to drink a cup of water every hour or so.
