Hydration for Pregnant and Breastfeeding Women

Pregnant and breastfeeding women need increased water intake to support their health and the baby’s development. Water aids in forming amniotic fluid, producing breast milk, and preventing constipation. Aim for at least 10 cups of water daily and adjust based on individual needs. Monitor hydration status and respond to thirst signals. Proper hydration is essential for maintaining energy levels, preventing complications, and supporting overall health during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
