Overstretch bladder: Jenni, You can actually drink to much liquid, but the overstretch is usually due to holding your urine back or having an obstruction. I would agree with your doctor to drink and hydrate as you get thirsty instead of drinking to fulfill an amount. Usually 2L of water a day is plenty.
