How Much Water?
How much water are we supposed to drink? I know the more the better, but is there a magic #?
I'm a big water drinker, and have upped it now that I'm PG, but I know I could still drink even more probably.

Re: How Much Water?
I was told at least 8 glasses a day.
I think I usualy have closer to 10-12.
ETA:
I count decaf tea, and cranberry juice, so it's not all straight up water for me.

Re: How Much Water?
I was told at least 64oz of liquid a day.
That counts water, juice, decaf beverages, milk. etc.
IF you drink caffeine you have to make up for it since caffeine is a duirectic (sp), makes you lose water, it's counter productive.
I hardly ever make it to 64oz mark, i know i have too sooner or later, since with DD i had preterm contractions and liquids help reduce that.

Re: How Much Water?
64 ounces but I definitely dont get that much water during the day. I drink a lot of juices so i might have like 3 glasses a day. I need to drink water but it makes my acid reflux worse when i drink water.

Re: How Much Water?
I probably drink ~70 ounces a day, so I do pretty well, but I've heard it's never enough!

Re: How Much Water?
I have a bottle of water with me constantly. I refill at least 4-5 times at the office, it's a 14oz bottle so that's 56-70oz right there. I usually have a decaf tea or two at work and at home I have water or seltzer or milk with dinner. Right now I'm only getting about 2 glasses of milk a day so I want to try to up that by one more.

Re: How Much Water?
I usually drink 64to 80 oz. My doc told me that it's not always easy to measure so he said that as long as by noon my pee is clear or faintly yellow Im hydrated enough.
