Roll the fluids in your mouth for a second before swallowing & Drink electrolytes drinks

When I've had trouble tolerating Water due to nausea, I've eaten sugar-free popsicles, which provide fluids -- not a lot, but still better than foregoing.

Try crystal light sf, that’s how I make myself drink my Water but putting flavor in my water. One packet I put in 40oz so it’s not too sweet
