While watching your video I had 1 glass of water. And I felt continuous fetal movements for 6 minutes. Thanks 🙏( I am 33 weeks)

I'm really glad I ran into your channel. My OB literally tells me nothing. I'm 30 weeks pregnant this week, I only see her every 4 weeks and all she does is check the baby's heartbeat and tells me about my next appointment. Actually, she did tell me that my iron levels were low so she gave me iron supplements to take. My appointments are only 5 mins long unless my husband and I ask questions. It's because of you that I realized that it's not just about eating healthy, exercising and reducing stress. No one ever mentioned a birth plan so I've been scrambling to figure all that out. But my girlfriends say if she doesn't say anything that means everything is fine. Sure, but I'm a FTM who knows nothing about going through labor. Sorry, I had to vent but thank you for being you!

I feel you! I have the exact same "situation." I found it hard to trust her because I walk out of the clinic not gaining new info. I get all my health info/baby updates from pregnancy apps..! And my hubby and I usually don't have questions because we already read the apps updates! It is a bit frustrating. I guess I have kind of accepted it already since I will be delivering after Thanksgiving, it is a little too late (and I am tired) to find a new OB. I am just going in for the sole purpose of checking the baby via ultrasound.

You're lucky that this is your case. You'd rather hear bad news? And have to have weekly monitoring because you're at a very high risk of going into preterm labor?? I thought not. I wish my pregnancy wasn't this way, I constantly am in and out of hospital, completely on bed rest. I am terrified of loosing my little baby . I'm only 21 weeks.

Me too. My ob doesnt tell me anything much. She just always says my babys heart beat is high. Shes not asking about me either. Why is that? Im kinda frustrated. She even told me that its okay to eat anything. When i check google it says not.

Adding a lid with a straw to my favorite water bottle was a game-changer for me. Not sure why, but I’m drinking twice as much as I was before. Which stinks because I’m taking more trips to the bathroom. But it’s definitely helping in so many ways! It’s amazing how helpful something so simple can be.

I drink about a gallon a day because my doctor said he'd fight me if I didn't 😂😂 he's the greatest OB I've ever found.

LEMON is really good for the digestive tract 😊

thank you this really helps currently having contractions now on my 7th month Im really worried that it might be preterm labor

I'm 33 weeks pregnant with my first baby and was diagnosed with Hyperemesis Gravidarum finding a balance to regulate the cycle of nausea, vomiting, and dehydration has been a constant battle especially during the first 16/17 weeks. I had to try multiple prescription medications to help with the problem because home remedies were ineffective. I even tried consuming watermelon to increase my water intake and was not successful. Now, that I'm in my third trimester, its seems like the battle has repeated itself. The latest case of dehydration had me in the triage experiencing 4 min apart contractions.

thanks for this there aren't many cool videos on how to manage high risk pregnancy:(

I wish I would have known just hydrating more with the low amniotic fluid to avoid c section.

Thank you very helpful

I love staying hydrated by dressing up my water! I add a splash of sparkling water and fresh lemon and/ or lime. And lots of ice. Lots.

Thank you for this video i came from a doctor visit on Friday and she told me that i have a low cervix. this video helped me by knowing i got to keep drinking water. my question is, is all water created equal... is there a brand i should avoid.

Thank you ❤️ so much this help me so much

I'm 27 weeks and I drink about 4 bottles of water a day. I mostly only drink water but every now and again I'll get a Gatorade. I don't drink caffeine except I started drinking a cup coffee about a weeks ago 🙂

Many many thanks mommy... 5 mos pregnant here and xperiencing some pelvic pains and tightening so guilty not drinking enough water.

My midwife insists on 80+ ounces of liquids. Not just plain water. Personally I feel too much plain water runs right through me, probably taking minerals with it. Home made broth and water with electrolytes (without artificial ingredients) are good options for hydration which actually reaches your cells as they provide minerals along with water. Getting plenty of fresh vegetables and fruit can also support hydration.

Thank you! I’ll try to drink more water. I’m spotting now at 23 weeks and it’s very scary!

Cucumber water is delicious!!

Thank you so much for this video, starting now am going to drink like no more

Does this still apply if you have fibroids because I am 27 weeks and 5 days and have been feeling pain in my knee and cramps like no other I am worried

Don't forget about your electrolytes too! I try and drink coconut water or half a vitamin water in addition to regular water to balance things out. Also, I can ONLY take my prenatal with juice or vitamin water. Happy pregnancy ladies! :)

Ok, love this! You know I'm about my water. 💧

My wife is carrying twins and it's her 7th month now, she's got T3 level 1.62 now. How to make this normal naturally? Can she give natural birth after 8th month completion of both are in Vertex position? Does she have to take rest now or she can work/walk?

how can i find sparkling water w no sodium?

Drinking too much water can flush out electrolytes from your food causing more dehydration. A wise DR I know says to only drink when you feel thirsty. Of course you can still casually drink water. But just keep that in mind, water dilutes vitamins you eat from food or other drinks.

I’m Guzzling water every time you mention water 😅

I can't understood how much water should i take plz tell me litres

So the answer to all these questions is ... DRINK WATER 🤷🏻‍♀️

Can I try to convince baby even I had one preterm labor in past (at 31 week gestation),just 2 months ago by c_section. I had a baby boy but by God's will, he died after one month. So I want to have another baby. Could you plz suggest meh can I have one or not? I'm in 3rd month of postpartum.

What about when acid reflux makes u throw up water during pregnancy?

This made me drink a bottle of water 😂 I’m 13 weeks 😊 prayers for a healthy baby and smooth delivery

When you are done with the first trimester symptoms, you can hydrate more by filling a big jug with water and add 1/4 apple juice or coconut or lemon juice whatever you like just to remove the "bland water taste" and sip from the big jug all throughout the day and refilling it as needed...do not try to chug it all down at once or you will definitely hate it. Just make it a habit to drink small amounts every 15mins.or whenever you feel bored. It works wonders! That's how I got my husband to put more water in his system. He has the good habit of drinking more water now.🖒

Look out for urinary tract infections or yeast infections. They can cause urine to be discolored or bad discharge. Drinking water in moderation with taking prenatal, magnesium citrate, fish oil pills, and vitamin d3 can help your body stay healthy. For UTI or yeast infections you must see a doctor or OBGYN to prescribe you medications. Products like Monistat can help with yeast infections and can be bought at the store. For strong UTI general foods that help are kimchi, garlic and cranberry juice. Avoid sugars and breads it feeds both problems.

All she recommends is drink water, and far too much on top of that. Drinking excessive water will cause your body to expel all essential minerals and vitamins, which can never be compensated with the minerals inside of any water brand/ tap water. You'll flush out magnesium, which is critical to healthy muscles, while supplements ( any supplements for that matter) will not prevent that deficit. Check your urine, the lighter it is (or the more often you need to go) the more you need to adequately nourish yourself to restore micro nutrients. Consciously take deep and slow breaths to focus, and temporarily shift your attention away from your fears. Mother knows best. Don't listen to this actor, listen to your body!
