I Have a Question About the Color of My Urine...
Posted: 01-22-07 23:51pm

It is really yellow. It seems like ever since I started to take my prenatal vitamin, it became this way. I hope nothing is wrong?! Can anyone help me out with my question?

Don't worry that is normal. I believe that it is the vitamin b in the vitamin that makes it that color. I have always had it but I have noticed it more when I am taking straight vitamin b.

It is most likely from your vitamins. Your fine , drink lots of water and cranberry juice, it will help flush out your system.

Ok. That's what I thought, but I was just wondering. I do drinks tons of cranberry juice during the day and I really like v8 but I think I need to start drinking more water but it's so hard because I don't like the taste!

You don't like the taste of water? Doesn't water taste like nothing? Neutral

you can try .Koolaid like .Alicia suggested, or they make flavored waters too. I drank a lot of iced tea, myself. Wink

Laura, I think that water has a taste to some people. Because i'm one of them. I hate the way water tastes. When I was preggers and had to drink more of it i'd always pour an ounce or two out of my water bottle and add lemon, or orange juice or one of those fruity flavor shots!

Hmm, weird. I can only taste it if it comes out of old pipes or if it has minerals in it.

My mom is one of those people that says it has no taste. Maybe because i'm anemic? Can being anemic make water have a taste?

I'm anaemic and I think water has a taste.. But I love it. For some reason I always think it tastes nicer out of the bathroom tap rather than the kitchen.. Haha i'm a freak Mr.

I love tap water.

But there's this water, "voss"!! My .God, it's the best water in the world. And i'm willing to put money on that!!!

They sell it in high class bars/strip clubs(?) for about 7 bucks a bottle.

It's in a sleek glass bottle. But at .Whole .Foods .Market, it's about 1.50 per bottle.

Mmmm...I bought a case once, and refilled it with kentwood!! Ha!
You can refill these because they're glass!!! With plastic, you're not supposed to refill because the particles of the plastic breakdown and contaminate your water! Bleeh!

to me it deffinantly has a taste, thats why I always have to justify drinking kool-aid to myself, I know its not great (cause of all the sugar) bit if I didnt drink it I would be so dehydrated all the time

i use to be the same way, I would put my mouth under the tub faucet when I was taking a bath/shower lol

i cant stand the water here though, unless its really cold from teh fridge

i use to like the taste of water, but I think they put something weird in it here and I dont like this water...Ive never been told im anemic though, so I dont think I am
