Drinking water

Does anyone know if not drinking enough water can cause low fluid around the baby?

Thanks I'm sure that drinking water will be my number one priority from now on. I've already had 2 ultrasounds done and they said that I should feel movement pretty soon but I think that I'm just too anxious but ill feel it soon. :)

I had an ultrasound that revealed low fluids but I wasn't leaking and they said I needed to increase my fluid intake, so yes, definitely drink plenty of fluids. Clear fluids at that. And not feeling movement or even looking pregnant at 14 weeks is completely normal. I'm on my 3rd pregnancy and just started feeling small movements at 18 weeks...

Dear, most people don't feel baby move until 20+ weeks, I didn't feel mine until 21 weeks.  I didn't even start to show until I was about 25-27 weeks.  I am sure everything is okay.  Drinking water is VERY important though.  Being dehydrated can cause preterm labor.

I'm not too sure, I would think so.  I know that drinking tons of water can add fluid for baby.
