Quench Your Thirst

Hydration is important for flushing waste products from your body, and aiding the liver and kidney function in both you and your baby.


You will need 8 to 12 eight ounce glasses of fluid. Fill a pitcher or large sports bottle and drink in small amounts throughout the day.

Avoid caffeinated and sweet beverages which can actually cause dehydration.

Dehydration can
  • make you feel queasy
  • cause fatigue
  • cause toxemia
  • lead to miscarriage
  • cause preterm labor
  • can be life threatening to baby and mother
