Hi babyash05
There are several stages in the development of dehydration, and each stage shows itself through distinct physical reactions. If you are dehydrating, your knowledge of the symptoms should give you an early alert:
Stage 1: You begin to lose concentration and performance drops.
Stage 2: Your muscles begin to cramp, particularly the large muscles of the thighs and buttocks.
Stage 3: You begin to show symptoms of heat distress and exhaustion, these include nausea, vomiting, dizziness and fainting.
Up until and including Stage 3, your heat regulation mechanisms are still coping. Beyond this, you suffer heat stroke and your body is out of control. Heat stroke is a medical emergency and requires urgent hospitalization.
Baby you need know, that if you feel thirsty it’s a definite sign of dehydration. Besides thirst, the other side-effects that dehydration often leaves people are feeling weary, sickly, lethargic, or even faint. Even if you may be drinking liquid, caffeinated beverages or drinks with high sugar content aren’t very good at hydrating you, and diuretics like coffee can more than often leave you feeling more dehydrated.
Undoubtedly the best way to beat dehydration, both in times of illness and in day to day life, is to make sure that you’re drinking enough water.
