water intake

What is the PROPER amount of water/fluids you should drink everyday?

Definitely 8 glasses of water. I usually drink about 10-12 glasses. I find that when I drink more water (and fiber) it helps keep bowl movements regular. Constipation is very common in pregnant women.

ETA: I do drink OJ and Apple juice sometimes, but I don't count that in my fluid intake.

Just wait till you are further along and the baby is cramping all your organs with the whole constipation thing

Lots of water is good for you!! DRINK UP!
