i'm tired of water!!

trying to keep hydrated is hard enough, but i just can't seem to find something tasty to drink. i've tried water with lemon, sparkling water with lime, etc! i just can't seem to find anything to quench my thirst! i usually don't drink sodas, but sprite has been hitting the spot lately. but that has tons of sugars in it. sodas are so bad for you, i am glad we are not addicted to them. then i thought about drinking teas, but i am staying away from caffeine. you will probably think i am overdoing it, but i am even staying away from some of the herbal teas. then i found a yummy mint hibiscus tea we get locally but then read this:

"Which teas are not safe? Many of the herbs used for teas, when taken in large or medicinal amounts, can potentially stimulate the uterus and induce miscarriage. These include anise, catnip, chamomile, comfrey, ephedra (called ma huang in traditional Chinese medicine), European mistletoe, hibiscus, horehound, Labrador, lemongrass, licorice root, mugwort, pennyroyal, raspberry leaf, rosemary, sage, sassafras, stinging nettle leaf, vetiver, and yarrow."

i'm so thirsty!

Your Baby in Week 29 of Pregnancy
How big is your baby this week? She weighs nearly three pounds now and measures about 17 inches. Though she's getting pretty close to her birth length, she still has to chub out a bit. In fact, over the next 11 weeks, she'll more than double — or even come close to tripling — her weight. And as she grows and the room in your womb gets tighter, you'll be less likely to feel those big kicks and more likely to get poked by an elbow or jabbed by a knee.

no wonder she is constantly kicking me, she is close to her birth length! yikes!
