I aim to drink 2-3 bottles a day (at a litre each) and I think I do pretty well! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-conscious-of-your-water-intake#post-1124675 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 18:39:21 +0000 MrsH 1124675@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup, I also try and hit 100 ounces. Have a big 32 ounce straw cup at work and a camelback at home. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-conscious-of-your-water-intake#post-1124667 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 18:33:49 +0000 indi 1124667@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have tried to ramp it up during pregnancy. I put 3 rubber bands on my water bottle and make sure I get them down to the bottom by the end of the day. It helps to remind me how much (or how little) I've been drinking that day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-conscious-of-your-water-intake#post-1123593 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 12:08:40 +0000 autumnlove 1123593@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ya, I try to hit 100 ounces! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-conscious-of-your-water-intake#post-1123564 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 11:56:18 +0000 mrskc 1123564@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm really good on work days. I bring my water intake for the day in two bottles (my Klean Kanteen &amp; camelbak) and my goal is to drink both by end of day. Weekends I tend to slack on the water. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-conscious-of-your-water-intake#post-1123546 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 11:48:42 +0000 luckypenny 1123546@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LovelyPlum: well I lost it the 2nd day but got it back and now I think it is :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-conscious-of-your-water-intake#post-1123532 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 11:43:15 +0000 doodlepoodle 1123532@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm very conscious of my eater intake, I'm not as good on the weekends and I can tell! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-conscious-of-your-water-intake#post-1123523 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 11:39:47 +0000 shopaholic 1123523@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. But I'm always thirsty and I keep noticing supply issues. So I have to be conscious of drinking a lot of water. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-conscious-of-your-water-intake#post-1123440 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 11:16:11 +0000 PurplePeony 1123440@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm conscious of it, but it's hard to get enough. The only water sources at my office are the nasty, nasty water fountain and the cooler, which I'm avoiding because the jugs are made with BPA and I'm not comfortable with that, especially while preggo. I bring a 1L Vapur bottle with me every day and usually finish it...I'd prefer to bring 2, but it's just too heavy to lug that much water plus my lunch plus whatever else I need for the day. I try to make up for it when I get home but I doubt it's enough. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-conscious-of-your-water-intake#post-1123390 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 11:02:24 +0000 Mrs. Oatmeal 1123390@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to be awful at drinking water, but pregnancy left me thirsty all the time. Now that I'm nursing, I need to force myself to drink a ton of water - I mix it with about 1/4 cup of juice just to get it down easier. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-conscious-of-your-water-intake#post-1123387 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 11:01:25 +0000 MapleMoose 1123387@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, but that's because I'm pregnant. I wasn't this aware before. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-conscious-of-your-water-intake#post-1123359 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 10:52:26 +0000 lavender 1123359@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I try but I know I don't drink nearly the amount I should. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-conscious-of-your-water-intake#post-1123356 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 10:51:10 +0000 boots 1123356@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I try to be somewhat aware. I've always been a good water drinker so it's pretty much a second nature, but some days I get caught up and forget to drink enough. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-conscious-of-your-water-intake#post-1123352 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 10:50:33 +0000 LovelyPlum 1123352@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@luckypenny: is it working?? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-conscious-of-your-water-intake#post-1123347 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 10:49:57 +0000 Boheme 1123347@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a 23-ish ounce Tervis cup and I try to make sure I fill it 4 times over the course of my work day. It doesn't always happen though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-conscious-of-your-water-intake#post-1123329 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 10:45:51 +0000 petunia354 1123329@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! In fact, my doctor told me to stop drinking so much when he got the results back from some routine blood work. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-conscious-of-your-water-intake#post-1123322 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 10:43:19 +0000 avivoca 1123322@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do! I bought a 20 oz. straw cup and aim to have 3-4 a day. I'm used to it from running and needing to hydrate for working out/races. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-conscious-of-your-water-intake#post-1123321 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 10:43:06 +0000 luckypenny 1123321@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>NO and its terrible :( I did buy myself a new Camelbak a few days ago in hopes that it would help me drink more water </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-conscious-of-your-water-intake#post-1123313 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 10:41:17 +0000 LovelyPlum 1123313@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I try! I really like to drink water, but it's hard, because then I have to pee all the time!! Yesterday, I got 9 glasses in, but I was aiming for 12, because I had a headache. Today, I've only had 2...need to get on that! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-conscious-of-your-water-intake#post-1123312 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 10:40:52 +0000 psw27 1123312@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I consciously try to drink a lot of water, I feel kind of sick if I don't... my co-workers think I am a weirdo but they all drink soda/coffee all day long. I'd be an over-caffeinated mess! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-conscious-of-your-water-intake#post-1123292 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 10:34:43 +0000 artsyfartsy 1123292@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm constantly aware but I don't always do as good as I should. But I give myself a pat on the back because this time last year I ONLY drank pop...no water. Now I exclusively drink water...just sometimes not as much as I should. </p> <p>I average 2-3 bottles a day which is half the recommended amount. I eat lots of fruits though and my pee is usually light colored so I think I'm doing okay. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-conscious-of-your-water-intake#post-1123291 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 10:34:40 +0000 MrsSCB 1123291@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No and I suck at drinking water :-/ I just don't really like it and if I'm not super thirsty it doesn't occur to me. I really need to get better though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-conscious-of-your-water-intake#post-1123283 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 10:32:24 +0000 mrsjyw 1123283@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i was heavily conscious of it during pregnancy and first half of the year after ds was born due to working out/breastfeeding.</p> <p>ive been bad the past couple of months tho! i'm trying to remotivate myself to keep track of hydration etc... i'm so close to the 1 year mark of bfing... and overall feel better when i drink water! </p>
