I was told at least 3 a day. Not that I ever do that.

Re: How much water should i be drinking
minumum of 64 ozs a day of water is recomended.......... I drink about 3-4 liters a day. I find that keeping well hydrated helps IMMENSELY with PG symptoms such as cramping, headaches and nausea...

Re: How much water should i be drinking
my doctor has me drinking 64 ounces of water a day, most days I go over though since I finish off a 64 ounce water bottle by the end of the work day

Re: How much water should i be drinking
well, it's really variable by individual. Check your pee color! it should be very pale yellow...
medium yellow = drink more
dark yellow = drink probably double 
clear = cut down!!! you need your electrolytes....
I've found it also changes as the pregnancy progresses. I was fine with 3.5 liters in the beginning, but now scone requires 5.5 liters a day  Someone please tie me down, I'm about to float away........

I am in the pale yellow to clear area. I drink well over 64 ounces. Does this mean I need to cut down?

Re: How much water should i be drinking
pale yellow, nope, you're right on target... if you go clear, just cut down about 8 oz or sub-in some gatorade (or my personal preference: coconut water  )
as you progress in your pregnancy, you'll find that you get thirsty even though you're drinking a ton
it's so annoying! but alas, it's good for baby.........

too much! that's why pregnant ladies pee all the time - it's all the water we have to drink!
