Normally I’d say that they view you having a glass of water out as leaving a mess. But that doesn’t explain the water bottle. That just seems vindictive because it’s not in their line of site and it’s not like they are missing a glass that needs to be washed.

Wow, a pregnant lady is drinking too much water? Hostess with the mostess, you are.

do you mean line of “sight”?

Work on your reading comprehension.

You don’t know the difference between “site” and “sight,” so why don’t you focus on “comprehension,” sweetie?

Typos are due to comprehension. You have a lot to learn, but start with learning to read. Will really open doors for you in life.

Needing to constantly drink water isn't good. Could be a sign of diabetes. Or in OPs case gestational diabetes.

I think it becomes a habit for people, not necessarily that they MUST have water because of a medical need.

But pregnant women do need more water than they would normally drink. It’s easy to become dehydrated when you’re pregnant.

But OP says to leave her cup there so she can refill. Sounds like she's leaving empty cups around. Which isn't really necessary. She's in a home with constant access to water. It's not hard to get a new cup and put the previous one in the sink when she's thirsty. There isn't a shortage of water or cups.

How do you know how many cups there are? OP isn’t intending to dirty multiple cups and “leave them around.” She is using ONE cup. As any guest may do in the home of any semi-decent host. She’s even trying to keep it out of the way in the guest bedroom.

OP is pregnant! Water is super important.

Not chugging water constantly.

NP. The whole point of OP having an active glass or bottle of water is that she isn’t “chugging” it, moron. She is taking a few sips, setting it down, and coming back to it later. Did I go slow enough for you to follow along? Did I confound you with too much logic? You really are stupid, aren’t you?

You're not OP you have no idea what she's doing or how many cups she's leaving around. I'd probably clean up after a lazy houseguest too who can't seem to find the sink.

From OP:
I asked them to please leave my water cups alone so I could refill, and they said “we don’t keep cups and glasses out.”

I assume you know that "cupS" implies more than one?

And I assume YOU know that:
1) It’s a multi-day visit (stated in the original post) so more than one day at this house = more than one cup will be used
2) Because they keep taking the one glass she is trying to keep, she has to get another one. Moron.

Doubt it. I had a roommate who did this. Left cups all over the place insisted they were still using them. Lazy AF and just never wanted to do dishes.

This. ILs are a bit rude but OP is creating the drama.

She has to get another one? Oh Lord. Sounds like torture. She will have to walk a few feet to take another tiny sip of water in a different glass.

I think OP should use as many glasses and cups as possible right before the other guests are set to arrive for dinner this evening. Focus on using the glassware she knows will be used at the dinner.

Yeah that's nuts. I've had the cup problem before but using my own metal water bottle fixed it.

Out of curiosity if someone was sitting in chair sipping water and they put the glass down (with water still in it) to get up to go to the bathroom. What would you do?

DP, why are you so angry? Stop the name calling.

You guys are arguing about two different hypotheticals, anyway.

I have to wonder if all these posts are fake. We don't allow water/drinks all over the house. Keep a bottle in the kitchen or fridge.
