I keep with me one of those 600mL bottles of water and i'm refilling that like 6 - 7 times a day, sometimes more.

I do drink a fair bit of Coke though. I can't go cold turkey and stop drinking coke. Doc says if I stop completely my body will go into shock withdrawl symptoms.

Is it the coke i'm drinking that is making it that colour?? Do you think?

sometimes its not how much your drinking, but what your drinking! some things make your urine colored and smell!!

but its never bad to drink water, its almost impossible to drink too much!

so just drink more!

How much WATER are you drinking? Other liquids like soda, juice, coffee, etc. don't hydrate as well as good old every day water! You should be drinking at least 6 8oz. glasses of water a day...I drink at least twice that!

Although the only time I have ever had my urine turn Orange was from a vitamin...maybe your prenatal has something in it that your body doesn't need...like you are already eating enough of it in your diet!

It is also possible that you have a UTI...so I think you really need to make sure you mention this to your doctor!

at one point my urine was dark orange but i was drinking water like there was no tomorrow days it would really change in color so i dont go by that any more, but how much i drink or how my mouth feels.

If you drink at least 8+ bottles(20oz) a day your good.
Also if you get a weird case of dry mouth seriously drink up cause i figured i was getting dehydrated after feelingliek that a few times in the past.

Are you taking maternity vitamins? They turned my urine flourescent yellow and orange, depending on how much water I drank! You could light up a room with the color-lol!

My prenatals turn mine bright almost flurescent. When it is a dark color it can mean dehydration. Its good to drink a little extra water while you are pregnant anyhow.

drink 80 ounces of water, switch to caffien free coke and slowly work your way off it, and its your prenatal viatamines causeing that color, you pee most of it away. your body only absorbs a small amount of the pill.
