It was my New Years resolution to drink more water in fact. Now I'm up to about 64 oz. per day plus what ever milk, fruit, veggies I consume. Not bad, but I definitely have room for improvement. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-h2o-do-you-drink#post-188453 Wed, 13 Jun 2012 17:42:28 +0000 Periwinkle 188453@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've never been a great water drinker (or drinker of much liquid at all) and while I've gotten much better during pregnancy, it's still not perfect. The most I can really get in is about 60oz and that's a stretch for me. I found that a 33oz water bottle helps, and I try to drink at least 2 a day. Still working on my goal today... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-h2o-do-you-drink#post-188438 Wed, 13 Jun 2012 17:13:54 +0000 EloiseKE 188438@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I average 3-4 bottled waters a day, but being pregnant it gets to be a pain having to pee every 5 minutes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-h2o-do-you-drink#post-188426 Wed, 13 Jun 2012 16:58:57 +0000 MsLipGloss 188426@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am trying to average 100 oz a day to keep the braxton hicks at bay (that totally rhymes! I digress . . . ) I usually get close, or go over, but I don't know how well it is working to reduce the contractions. </p> <p>I also try to keep butterbean's *pool* as full as possible! :P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-h2o-do-you-drink#post-188421 Wed, 13 Jun 2012 16:51:06 +0000 chopsuey 188421@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually drink 120 ounces/day </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-h2o-do-you-drink#post-188419 Wed, 13 Jun 2012 16:50:10 +0000 joyjoy 188419@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Before pregnancy I used to drink probably 6-8 cups a day, which I think is a good amount since I'm smaller than the average bear. Now, I'm thirsty all. the. time. On an average day, I'll drink close to a gallon. I don't know what I'll do if I start to swell and have to drink more. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-h2o-do-you-drink#post-188418 Wed, 13 Jun 2012 16:47:19 +0000 LuLu Mom 188418@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lydg: I have noticed this too!!! Milk is the only thing that helps me with the heartburn. Not loving this side affect as I have never had it before being pregnant. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-h2o-do-you-drink#post-188416 Wed, 13 Jun 2012 16:46:20 +0000 LuLu Mom 188416@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I drink a ton of water, I would say between 80-120 oz. a day depending on the day (More during the work day than on weekends.) That's not counting all the fruit I eat where I get additional water intake. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-h2o-do-you-drink#post-188406 Wed, 13 Jun 2012 16:42:13 +0000 heffalump 188406@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>All I drink is water. Still, it's probably around 5-6 cups. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-h2o-do-you-drink#post-188404 Wed, 13 Jun 2012 16:38:35 +0000 matador84 188404@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have the worst heartburn right now and I swear drinking water is making it worse!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-h2o-do-you-drink#post-188392 Wed, 13 Jun 2012 16:31:37 +0000 Minnie_Girl 188392@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Before I got pregnant, I drank oodles of water. The morning sickness made that a lot harder, but now I'm working back up to my usual 4-5 16 oz glasses a day. (I naturally drank that much on my own to feel hydrated, and apparently that's how much I should be drinking for my weight) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-h2o-do-you-drink#post-188389 Wed, 13 Jun 2012 16:30:35 +0000 autumnlove 188389@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I drink about 100 ounces a day! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-h2o-do-you-drink#post-188386 Wed, 13 Jun 2012 16:29:01 +0000 mrs. bird 188386@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am the worst water drinker :( I only like ice water and am trying to make myself finish 2 (I don't remember the # oz, but maybe 32, not positive though) water bottles each day. Sadly, I don't always succeed. DH drinks a gallon bottle each day, plus what he has at meals... He makes me look like such a slacker :D </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-h2o-do-you-drink#post-188383 Wed, 13 Jun 2012 16:26:02 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 188383@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I drink over a gallon a day. I have a 1 liter water bottle on my desk and I fill that 3 times just while I'm at work. When I'm home I drink a glass of water about every hour ir two. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-h2o-do-you-drink#post-188375 Wed, 13 Jun 2012 16:19:29 +0000 Alivoo01 188375@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I drink at least 50oz a day, or at least try to. Yet, it's still no where near the required minimum of 8 cups per day! I used to be horrible about hardly drinking any water at all. I recently learned that I drink more water if I consume it out of a water bottle so I've been trying to make sure I have one with me all the time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-h2o-do-you-drink#post-188363 Wed, 13 Jun 2012 16:10:44 +0000 matador84 188363@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was just watching a news segment that is saying adults should drink about 8-12 cups of water per day...varying on the size of the adult. </p> <p>i'm way behind on my water consumption today. how much water do you drink on a day to day basis? </p>
