Do these have the same meaning? What would be the best version in your opinion?

- After saying something, I sit, look at the water and drink it using my right hand in three breaths to quench my thirst.

- After saying something, I look at the water and drink it using my right hand in three breaths to quench my thirst while sitting (down) .

- After saying something and looking at the water, I drink it using my right hand in three breaths to quench my thirst while sitting (down).

- After saying something, I sit and use my right hand to drink water to quench my thirst, stopping 3 times to take a breath and look at it (OR and look at the water).


NB: The reason of using "in three breaths" is that I am pausing three times to take breath while drinking water. Is there any better phrase that I can use instead to sound more natural?
