i don't mean to freak you out, but unusually excessive/extreme thirst at night can be indicative of something much more serious, like diabetes!. if this continues to occur, i recommend you get tested!.
i tend to get thirsty at night too, and i don't believe there is a solid solution or even a clear reason for this!. it could be your mouth drying out if you sleep with it open, or maybe you're not getting enough fluids during the day and it's not until your body "shuts down" that you begin to feel it!. drink plenty of water during the day!.
if getting up is becoming a problem for you, just keep a few water bottles by your bed!.
Flinch, i doubt she just wakes up in the middle of night and says, "i think i'll go drink 3 - 4 glasses of water every few hours just for the hell of it!" she becomes unusually thirsty and that's not something you can control!. good to know there are smart people like you on the internet!. really!.
anyway, best of luck to you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Stop drinking so much before bed!.!.
Don't have anything to drink for an hour before bed!.!. Then you won't have to pee so much!
If you get thirsty, take a sip to quench your thirst !.!.

All of this sounds like a manifestation of a problem or things that are bothering you and this is how you're relieving it!. Let's just say that none of the above is unhealthy!. It would be a good idea though to figure out the cause of all this anxiety!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
