I was and am the same. First and third trimester I cant drink water on its own. For me though, I find that I have to drink cordial, lemon cordial. My mil told me that I shouldnt be drinking so much cordial, when she found out, however I my response was that water was too thin for me, and i needed to beef it up some for it to be able to stay down properly. No one understood what I meant though.

Sorry no real help here :/
