mirabb2002 14 Posted April 3, 2014 Hi I had surgery this Monday 3/31/14. I'm only drinking half a water bottle is this normal? I don't want to get dehydrated. Any advice? I'm taking a sip every 7 minutes. I feel like I'm not meeting the Expectations yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1Day1Life4Now 882 Posted April 3, 2014 You aren't meeting expectations....it takes a while so just keep at it. I'm 7 weeks out and I'm still not meeting my Water intake levels. It's a process we all have to work at so don't stress too much. It will come. 1 mirabb2002 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I use a small cup which helps a bit. I was told by the nurse that is starts off very difficult to get the water in which is why they fill you up with IV fluids. Good luck to you!
