Hi ladies,

I'm 34 weeks pregnant and I'm drinking an unbelievable amount—two 2-liter bottles of water is nothing anymore these days. I've actually never heard that pregnant women drink that much.

Is that normal? Or should I be worried?

Thanks in advance.

    I’ve also been really thirsty myself, especially at night. I wake up and drink about two glasses of water. I’ve really had this since I got pregnant. By the way, I think it’s only good that you drink so much, but...you’ll have to go to the toilet even more often now

    Thanks for your reply.
    Yeah, indeed, I have to go to the toilet a lot, which I sometimes find a bit annoying. But yeah, that's just part of it now.

    Hi, this could be due to gestational diabetes. I'll check with the midwife tomorrow for advice. Strength!

    hey,
    I already had the test done and it was fine. My sugar levels were good. I have an appointment tomorrow anyway, so I'll ask about it then.
