With this heat i honestly forget to drink enough water and by evening i feel so drained. Started worrying if it can affect the baby in any way. Im in my 2nd trimester, is this something to be careful about?
When my nausea was bad I barely drank water and got so dizzy and weak. I started sipping coconut water, nimbu pani and ice chips, that helped me keep fluids in. Dehydration just makes everything worse honestly.
Dehydration is more serious than people think, it can trigger cramps and make you feel faint. If you are vomiting a lot and cant keep water down, please dont sit at home, call your doctor. Keeping hydrated is really important.
My amma always pushed me to drink majjiga and coconut water, said baby needs fluids too. Dehydration makes you tired and dizzy na. Keep drinking, and if you feel very weak, tell your doctor.
Not drinking enough water can cause headaches, dizziness, constipation and even early cramping type contractions. Keep a bottle near you always. I aimed for steady sips through the day, especially in summer.
Especially if you walk or move around, drink before and after. I noticed I got Braxton type tightening when I was low on water. Hydration kept my energy up for my doctor approved walks too.
