Default Drinking too much water!

My doctor has told me to drink plenty of fluids. Unfortunately, drinking a lot of water means that I constantly have to go to the bathroom. I am a bus driver and visiting the bathroom every ten minutes is just not possible. Would it be okay to limit my water intake during work hours and then drink more when I am home?

It should be just fine to restrict liquid intake while you are driving the bus and to increase your fluid intake when you are off work. The important thing is to get plenty of fluids some time during the day so that you and the baby are well hydrated. Make an effort to really push fluids when you are off duty so you make up for the loss that occurred while you were working.
