Cramps during 3rd trimester

I was in my 36th week of pregnancy and experienced cramps few times a day which made me worry that I'd deliver anytime soon. Then I googled and saw an article about dehydration during pregnancy which would cause cramps.

I think I drank less water because I had a new water bottle which I didn't quite like and it's smaller than my previous water bottle. Hence, although I thought I drank alot but maybe it wasn't as much as before. So then I switched back to my "2 liter" water bottle and made sure I drink at least 2 liters of water a day. Since then, I had no more cramps. Writting this down will prevent me from having cramps again in my next pregnancy..if I decide to have another child. :S
