Woke up with dry mouth 6 weeks

[Welshy2024]

Woke up with a very dry mouth. Is this common? Have drank lots of water since and will ensure I do so going forward now. Is this normal?

I am 7w3d and I am have been SO THIRSTY particularly at night for a couple of weeks now. Just keep hydrated, there are so many weird and wonderful symptoms...

I was out with a friend at the weekend without easy access to water as we were walking around. I was so thirsty it was alarming! I'm 8+3 for context. Then in the recommended reading from my midwife I read that during your pregnancy you end up with 50% greater blood volume in your body. As you're starting to increase this volume your body needs more fluids so you'll be thirstier than usual. The body is amazing!

Yep I've had this throughout pregnancy, and also I've had a blocked nose the whole time which hasn't helped.
