No plain water during confinement

Hello mummies, is it true that during confinement no plain water is allowed? Will it cause water retention? What about diluting the red dates tea so it is less “heaty”. Any mummies experienced it? Thanks!!

Just curious as this is the first time I'm hearing this. At any stage shouldn't water intake be essential? I get headache if I don't drink enough water. This is my first pregnancy (2nd trimester currently) So I don't know if we have any such restriction too

No. Pregnant women should drink at least 2 litre of water daily. Not enough water may make you have headache, constipation and dehydration. So do drink up
