Sooooo thirsty!!!

[Anna B]

I am constantly thirsty all of a sudden, my mouth is dry, and I just can't quench it. I don't seem to be weeing as much now though, so where is it all going?!

I'm feeling really thirsty too.
I hope it doesn't mean that I have developed gestational diabetes, will have to ask the GP about it when I have my check-up next week.
I read that our blood volume is increased now that we are pregnant, maybe that's where all the fluid is going to?

I think I went through similar phase...But, I would suggest that you monitor that thirst issue, epsecially if you are not weeing lots. I am sure it's just a phase and nothing to worry about but if it persists I would take urine sample to be checked - just to be on a safe side!
Btw, where around Gloucester are you?

I have this, its like when i have a drink of water its like the first ive ever had and i drink loads at a time. it strikes all of a suden and i HAVE to have a drink NOW. Weird.

I was a bit concerned about the diabetes angle, my grandmother was a diabetic, so its a real possibility. I have to give a urine sample anyway, so hopefully something will show up if there is anything to worry about.
