reason to be concerned???

Since yesterday I have been drinking an awful lot of water and can not seem to satisfy my thirst. Last night a had a craving for popsicles. I ate 6 popsicles within an hour on top of drinking water and still was so thirsty. I have drank so much water today and it still doesn't seem to be enough. Could there be something wrong???

Have you done your glucose test yet? Could be gestational diabetes (I know thirst like that could be a sign...) or high sodium.

dehydration or anemia? Although I would think that if you were dehydrated, you'd be set by now lol.

I would still call my doctor if I were you, but sometimes I have the same problem. Not with Popsicles but with water.. I literally have cravings for water some days. So much so that I will DREAM of chugging a bottle of water. Weird, I know. Damn these pregnancy dreams lol.

I called my doctor and am waiting for a call back. I had my glucose test done at 27 weeks and it came back negative, I was told I was slightly anemic and have been taking iron pills. I didn't know this could be because of anemia. Thank you ladies so much for your input. I guess i'll just wait for my call back from my doc.
