drinking too much?

[paradysso]

im sooo thirsty today and cant stop drinking, nothing seems to satisfy me. is this a sign of some thing?? also the amount im drinking my pee should me clear but mine is really dark

any one got any ideas?

When the midwife was talking about gestational diabetes with me she said that increased thirst can be a symptom. Maybe get it checked out with your midwife.
Thats the only thing that popped into my head.

Yeah i thought same when i read that, thirst can be a sign of gestational diabetes... might be worth getting checked out

It could be a UTI with your pee being so dark. Definately phone the docs tomorrow see what they say.

[annem]

yeah you had better get it checked

i'm drinking loads but mainly in the night think it may be the fact we have moved into a new warmer house!!

I drink and drink and drink loads ... I can go through at least 2 2l bottles of water a day, not to mention tea, diet coke, and pineapple juice.... But nothing quenches my thirst and guess what I have GD isn't terrible... they don't induce you for it anymore and as long as you're really good, you can easily control it with your diet.... but xmas was hard with all that chocolate..

i rang MW this morning and she said she will come around today and take bloods and test pee.

and some thing about going for another GTT

let u know what she says,

MW came this afternoon and did all the normal things... BP was fine, pee was fine, baby had a strong heart beat, soooo she said i could be anemic and told me to try taking "SPATONE" its iron, but in natural form still in water straight from the source so u dont get the crappy side effects of constipation.

Ive just brought a months supply for £6, which isnt too bad, so see if it makes me feel any better.

plus shes sending me to hospital for a GTT so see if that picks any thing up. she told me to take pregacare to help get rid of this cough im still suffering and told me also to try at the health food shop for any remedies.. so im also taking a homeopathic remedy.

also spoke about me wanting to try naturally to give birth and she was soo nice and gave me alot of confidence that i can do it and wont need a section, so now im really excited

 

[Kimbo]

aww good luck for the gtt again!!
