always thirsty!

For the past couple of weeks I've been super thirst I can't get enough water. I don't know if this is a sign of a problem or what?  I'm 37 weeks pregnant and 4 days.. is this a problem.. can drinking too much water be harmful?

A little extra thirst is expected.  If you literally NEVER feel like you have enough to drink,  or if you're thirsty 5 minutes after consuming a lot of water,  that's a symptom of diabetes.

You should probably mention it to your doctor.  

And watch out how much water you drink.    It can become a very serious emergency very quickly if your sodium levels drop due to too much water intake.
