Your thirst may increase while breastfeeding due to the fact that your body requires the use of more fluid to help create breast milk. Being thirsty while breastfeeding is completely normal. Try to drink 8-10 cups of water a day; this should not hard as you have increased thirst anyway.

Most women will experience a sudden need to drink shortly after they have started breastfeeding. This is due to oxytocin (a hormone), which your body releases when you are breastfeeding.
Thirst is natures way of helping out with your milk production. Water is a vital element required by your body in order to maintain a good level of milk supply.
To help with milk production:
- Drink plenty of water throughout the day.
- Carry a water bottle with you at all times, and drink regularly.
- Have a glass of water before you begin breastfeeding.
- Have a glass of water on hand when you are breastfeeding, in case of a sudden urge or need for water.
- Avoid too many sugary drinks as they can dehydrate you.

What age do babies stop breastfeeding?
There is no real set age when babies stop breastfeeding. It can be up to the mother, or the baby can ween his/herself. In my personal opinion, I would stop breastfeeding when the baby can eat solid food, and/or drink out of a cup. Or maybe even when he or she can say that they are thirsty. But every mother and baby are different.
