It's essential to drink 8-10 glasses of water during pregnancy. You are now flushing out 2 systems and your baby is surrounded by water (amniotic fluid). The reason you are warmer than usual is b/c your metabolism is raised and your blood volume is increasing. I'm glad I've been warmer this winter b/c I live in Wyoming and it's pretty much cold all the time except in June, July, and August!

Drinking lots of water when pregnant is a good thing. I didn't while I was pregnant with #3 and at times, I (maybe the baby?) was dehydrated (not severely) and I went into labor. Every time it happened, the labor stopped as soon as the nurse gave me sprite and ice.
Keep drinking the water.

No, but drink it up! Water is so important during pregnancy. I want water but it makes me sick, because I'm having so much nausea and... It's really hard to keep the water down! Also your body will let you know the temp you need to be during pregnancy, Pregnant women are often hot!

First...Congratulations!! Okay...water intake is a very important thing...as i'm sure you know...the baby will be swimming in amniotic fluid...which YOU will be making...therefore...keep the water coming!! As for your body temperature...completely normal as well....your body is going through so much right now...constantly working...so you will be pretty warm most of the time. Hope this helps!!

When you are pregnant you feel warmer. I was wearing short sleeved tops in Central New York winter (temps in the single digits and below). As far as craving water...nope but when my mom was pregnant for my sister she craved ice.

I didn't crave water, I craved ice! I was anemic for awhile (1 of the signs of anemia-craving ice). I craved so many things while I was pregnant ;)
And yes, I got hot alot too. Drove my husband crazy...its all your hormones! Good luck my dear!
