A member asked:
What's effect of low water intake on a fetus (27w pregnant)? usually drink 8+ 8 oz glasses during the week but haven't drank as much past 2 days.

Dehydration: Can cause premature labor. That is the biggest risk: contractions that evolve into labor. If you generally stay well hydrated, probably not an issue. Just increase your fluid intake (good water, not sodas). If you feel cramping, see your doctor.
