Been feeling really thirsty and a bit dizzy lately, drinking water and still feel parched. period not due for a week. just wondering if feeling dehydrated like this can be an early pregnancy thing or im overthinking.
I felt super thirsty and headachy early on too and got worried. Doc said just stay hydrated. Did anyone else feel constantly thirsty in the beginning? I keep a bottle with me always now.
If you are feeling very dizzy, dry mouth, hardly passing urine, please dont ignore it and call your gynac. Especially if vomiting a lot. Dehydration in pregnancy needs attention, sometimes they give fluids.
Dehydration isnt a sign of pregnancy as such, but early on you may feel more thirsty and the vomiting can dry you out. Keep your water intake up. Dark pee or dizziness means drink more and check with doc if it continues.
Pregnancy itself isnt dehydration, but the nausea and vomiting in early days can make you dehydrated easily, that happened to me. Sip water and ORS through the day. If you cant keep fluids down at all, do tell your doctor.
