isajck 229 Posted August 10, 2012 You must concentrate on liquids right now so you do not end up dehydrated. Most everyone has been in your shoes so do not feel alone! 2 CoolBreeze and tabbymonroe reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Giselle3264 175 Posted August 10, 2012 It's very, very important that you stay hydrated during this period. Many people find cold Water doesn't work so they drink room temperature water. Also other warm drinks like tea and decaffinated tea can be very comforting. Whatever you drink, at this stage, just sip. Seriously. Really small sips. If you can sip an once every 15 minutes, you can build up from there. Your hunger is more likely to be thirst. This is a good way to find out. You say you're in the bathroom every hour. Make sure you stick to the liquids appropriate for your stage. Also a PPI (prescribed or OTC) can make a huge difference. I have to take mine twice a day. Ok. Let's see if you can start to feel better. 2 MamaMelly and tabbymonroe reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
