This guy I work with brings two full gallons to work at 2 and finshes them both by 8 ! Crazy even drinking like 8 glasses of water makes me feel like drowning

I am 32 weeks and definetly have not been drinking a gallon of water . Maybe 40 oz a day, and yesterday at my us the doc said my amniotic fluid was excellent ! You don't need a gallon of water.
For me it's just not possible

Do not listen to anyone saying too much water is bad, especially just one gallon. I drink a few gallons a day and my doctor loves that!

Ignore that post above. If you think you don't drink enough water increase it by a glass extra a day every week to get your body used to it but don't increase it by a huge amount quickly because you could do some serious damage. Google it if you are worried and talk to a doctor but one gallon is heaps
