Water Question

[panda 14]

So in the hospital i was told to drink the little 1 oz cup of Water every fifteen minutes, is this the same for at home? Or can I sip on as much as i can get in throughout the day because I think waiting every fifteen minutes there would be no way for me to get all 64 ounces down. Or to even keep track of all that time during the day.

If you aren't having any problems with 1 oz every 15 minutes, I think you're okay to sip all day long. But if it starts to come up or gets foamy, slow down.

I agree I find that there is a lot of trial and error in the beginning. Sip slowly and you should do fine.

I actually had to go to drinking a Dixie cup full of fluids every 15 minutes. I thought I'd be fine , when I went back to work I definitely wasn't even getting 10 oz in. The little cups every 15 minute helped to keep me on track.

Its a learning thy self process. I started the same and I was worked up to 4oz per hour. That was way too much for me. I frothe so much it was not pleasant. Now I sip at my own pace and when I begin to feel full i stop drinking. I can not sit all day watching the clock so i sip as little I want or as much my tummy will let me. And I now use the 16 oz bottle, Its easier for me to track my progress.

Just go slowly. Don't drink too much at once. Wait at least 5 min between drinking anymore.

Thanks so much for all the great replies. I'm going to try the 16 oz bottle and wait 5 min minimum.
