No plain water during confinement

Hello mummies, is it true that during confinement no plain water is allowed? Will it cause water retention? What about diluting the red dates tea so it is less “heaty”. Any mummies experienced it? Thanks!!

Tried and tested. Drink water all you want! Dehydration causes water retention and not the fact that you chug water down. You will get extremely thirsty especially when you breast feed.
