I drink water before going to bed. This is my childhood habit. I always have a glass of water before going to bed. I think this helps the body to have some fluid during the sleep. But I don't feel everyone has this habit..Because my hubby does not drink water before sleeping. How about you? Do you drink water before going to bed?

I have to watch out how late I have my last drink of anything. If I drink too late in the night, I will wake up at 4am to urinate. I hate when that happens because then I can't fall back to sleep easily.
I do keep a bottle of water on my nightstand and drink it all the minute I wake up from my alarm.

If I'm thirsty I will have something to drink, usually milk. That's also what I'll drink if I wake up in the middle of the night. I'll drink a little bit of water after I brush my teeth at night too.

I have the habit of drinking before i sleep. I also keep a bottle of water on my bedside table too. I just don't like my throat to be dry and irritating as it disturbs my sleep.

I am not a water drinker really but you know i think I might try and make that a habit of mine as it does sound very logical to provide your body with fluid before hours of sleep, so ok i am going to start tonight...thank you

I drinkg water invariably before going to bed. I feel that water is the most essential of items, which we consume and I must have it, while going to bed. I keep a bottle, besides me and when I get up during night, I take water, as much as I required.

I do not drink water before I go to bed, but I do fill a sippy cup with orange juice each night before I go to bed and leave it on my night stand. If I wake up in the night and want something to drink I just reach for my little sippy cup. I use the sippy cup because when it is dark I do not have to worry about spilling anything, like if I had a cup of juice.

I do have this habit! Since I usually go to bed around 3 or 4 in the morning, I always end up getting thirsty. So, before I lay down, I grab a bottle of water (keeps the cats from spilling it) and set it beside the bed. During the night, I may get thirsty and there will be times when I don't really want to get up. There's no wonder why I run out of bottled water before the end of the week...
