Hydration

Are there any tricks to staying hydrated?

Ob told me last night since im constantly having diarrhea now to drink gatorade that its perfectly fine to have to rehydrate.

Try drinking with a straw.  I drink way more out of a straw than without.  And I hate drinking water so this has helped me alot!

Try taking some Gatorade and freezing it to make ice cubes. Put those in your water. It'll keep you from getting too much sodium from it and will give you little flavor bursts.

Thank you all so much. That all really helped.

Coconut water is very hydrating, I love it. Vita coco has a bunch of good fruit blend ones too. It's full of a bunch of electrolytes so it hydrates you more than even water would.

I wouldn't drink Gatorade or poweraid it's has a lot of salts it's meant to replenish when you do exercise.. My aunt was just telling me that eating cucumbers helps to keep you extreemly hydrated other than that, plenty of water is key :)

I was told if you drink poweraid or Gatorade to get the zero. Because they can actually be bad but I have my days where I drink Gatorade also. I got those propel water enhancers to flavor the water. My ob told me to get those and they work great just to give the water flavor so I don't feel like I'm drinking water all day.

Yes :)

I drink powerade. Is that good too?

[kendallleblanc]

Also Gatorade is good, I haven't heard of coconut water

Well ive been drinking a lot of water but is there anything else that is a substitute for hydration that i can drink while pregnant? Someome told me coconut water. But isnt that going to dehydrate me?

I always drink water with a lot of ice and squeeze some lemon or lime in there. It makes it taste better and I drink a lot of it.

I drink out of my blender bottle. Idk why but it makes me drink a lot more water.
