Most nights not a whole bottle, but sometimes (or more!)
I sweat a lot some nights, which gives me a thirst, but in winter even when I don’t sweat my place is so bone dry I wake up throughout the night with terribly dry throat, so sometimes I’ll even go through 2 16 oz bottles.
I’d rather have to pee than not have the water nearby.
Lol, and here I was thinking this was about a hot water bottle, a thing that makes sense to bring to bed (and which I, a chronic pain sufferer must have at all times), not a drinking water bottle, which I think only the young with their still-strong bladders can consider a reasonable thing to bring to bed 😂
I don't but I feel weird not having water by the bed, just in case. I've been doing it so long I don't even question it. Like I barely ever drink water in bed, so I could easily skip it
Tangential thought: maybe the two are related? Like, on days where you're super busy, you're more likely to get a bit dehydrated from the busyness (lol, root of business?), and ALSO more likely to miss steps in the evening routine, like bringing the water bottle to bed, for the same reason.
I'm thinking it's like survivorship bias, but for memory. Nobody remembers small wake-ups, say to drink some water, but they're definitely gonna remember if they have to get up to get the water because their bottle is empty.
