This is obviously a typical question. But I was after more detail on this as it seems to be very broad. I would like to know how many mm of fluid we should be drinking. I am only small and therefore only have a small bladder. But I have been trying to increase my fluid intake since becoming pregnant mainly because of constipation. Before being pregnant I could drink at most 750mm a day and be happy with that some days less. I have always needed to go to the loo a lot, so increasing my fluids has meant even more trips which gets hard when I need to travel a bit for work. My other question is, Is any of this fluid that I am drinking actually helping because it feels as soon as I drink I pee it out almost straight away. It goes straight through me. Am I actually absorbing any of it?

Look forward to your answers.
