Just a tip I thought I'd share
I got this in my email for one of my weekly pregnancy updates. I wanted to sahre with you lovely ladies, especially now that the weather is getting warmer...
"Dehydration may cause preterm labor, so be sure to drink your eight glasses of fluids every day. If you have trouble keeping track of how much you are drinking, try filling two, one-quart containers with water each morning and keep drinking from them throughout the day. Don't stop until the containers are empty!"

Re: Just a tip I thought I'd share
I know I definately don't drink anywhere near the recommended amount of water. I really need to try harder, I am finding myself thirstier though..I guess from the heat. Thanks for the tip! I think I'll go buy 2, one-quart containers to make sure I drink enough!

Re: Just a tip I thought I'd share
I keep a 52 oz Bubba keg at my desk and it really helps. I do get some strange looks from time to time but if people think I'm drinking beer at my desk they are idiots!

Re: Just a tip I thought I'd share
it's always a good reminder! I make sure to drink at least 75oz. per day, but I've been told that as the weather gets warmer we should be shooting for closer to 90oz. My doctor's office says on the hot days that I should try for 50oz. by 1pm.

Re: Just a tip I thought I'd share
I drink about 100-120 oz (3.5-4L) a day
you'd think I'd float down stream by now... 
at any rate, during work, I do EXACTLY as your post recommends... I fill 2 1L containers and drink them throughout the day....
