    Kristy Pepping said:  Okay so full disclosure, I bought this for myself. However...I do plan to gift this to my friends and family now that I have used it for awhile. Every time I go for a physical, I am told I am dehydrated. As a busy mom as all moms are, I never stop and drink water. This water bottle is BPA free, and it tells you when to drink water! The bottle has marks on it indicating when to drink water throughout the day.
