Food is the most important thing for the people. Regardless of gender, age, or wealth, eating is a major event in life, and no one can lack it. But it is precisely because it is so common that many people do not pay attention to it. After all, what is the technical content of something that happens several times a day?

Normally nothing happens, but if the person involved is a pregnant woman, everything will be different, because you can't predict what will happen.

The pregnant woman played with her mobile phone while eating and was rushed to the hospital half an hour later

I remember many years ago, my best friend, who was in great health, got pregnant the same year she got married. We are so close that we often have dinner and chat together. To put it bluntly, after I got pregnant, I probably spent more time chatting with her than she did with her husband.

It was Saturday, and I had nothing to do, so I went to her house to play. As usual, I bought groceries and cooked. Considering that she was pregnant, I was very careful when selecting ingredients. I didn’t buy anything that I didn’t know if pregnant women could eat. It was just simple home-cooked food.

In this case, the accident happened. About half an hour after starting the meal, she said that her stomach felt uncomfortable and she seemed to be about to give birth.

I was scared to death at the time. She was only over 7 months old, and giving birth at this time was not normal. I hurriedly helped her to the hospital. My hands were shaking while driving, and I even called a doctor. The traffic police cleared the way for us, with sparks and lightning all the way, and our minds went blank.

Fortunately, it was a false alarm and the child was not born prematurely. It was just false contractions.

I asked the doctor if this was caused by something he ate? After all, my best friend had the seizure at the dinner table. The doctor shook his head and said it had nothing to do with food. Most false contractions were caused by incorrect posture of pregnant women.

When he said this, I remembered that my best friend kept leaning forward while watching TV series while eating, and hardly moved during the whole process except picking up food. I didn't care at that time. My best friend was a little short-sighted and didn't like wearing glasses. She had always been like this. It was the same when eating.

Before encountering this incident, who would have thought that this would happen during a simple meal?

There was no big problem in the end. If there was a big problem, I would not be able to explain it clearly even with my whole body and mouth open. My best friend’s family would definitely think that there was something wrong with the ingredients, and that would be mine. Responsibility.

Three major misunderstandings of pregnant mothers when eating. Many people don’t know. Be careful not to hurt the fetus

In addition to improper posture, pregnant women also have many misunderstandings when eating, including Many of them are harmful to fetal development. I hope everyone can pay attention to them as soon as possible.

1. Be picky and picky, don’t eat this and don’t eat that one

Nowadays, many pregnant mothers are born in the 90s and grew up in single-child families. They are more pretentious and have serious picky eating behaviors. Some people don't like to eat meat, and some don't like to eat green plants. It's obviously a simple meal, but it can cause countless troubles.

However, WHO recommends that the daily food intake of pregnant women should include protein, vitamins, trace elements, etc. In short, they must eat everything that is in the human body.

The reason is very simple. The so-called pregnancy is actually creating an independent life in the mother's belly. Although this life is small, its composition is similar to that of an adult. He cannot lack what adults have. All the substances needed by the fetus come from the mother's body. They take what the mother eats.

In this case, whether you like it or not, there is no room for pregnant mothers to be picky. This is not for themselves, but for their children.

We might as well take a look at the consequences of picky eating:

■ Lack of protein: The fetal body develops slowly, the size is not large, and the congenital deficiencies will cause a series of sequelae

■ Lack of vitamins: problems will occur in the nervous system, immune system, circulatory system, etc., some of which are even irreversible

■ Lack of energy: Pregnant mothers are affected first, feeling weak and listless. In such an environment, fetal problems may also occur, and premature birth, asphyxia, and stillbirth may occur

2. Like to add soup to meals and eat soaked rice

Due to pregnancy reactions, many pregnant women Mom's appetite is quite poor in the first and second trimester of pregnancy. They don't like to eat. In order to solve the problem of eating as soon as possible, making rice has become their first choice.

Add soup to the rice, and it will be solved very quickly. This method looks good, but the impact is very bad.

The first is digestive problems. Research shows that when people eat soup rice, their chewing rate is only 21% of the usual rate, which is almost negligible.

Pregnant mothers' bodies are already operating under a high load. If the burden is artificially increased at this time, it won't take long, maybe one month, to cause them to fall ill.

Secondly, if the food is not fully chewed, the contact area with gastric acid is hundreds of times smaller, which means that the digestion efficiency is also reduced by hundreds of times.

You obviously eat the same amount of food as others, but in the end you grow fat and fat, but you are malnourished. Who can you blame? What about the fetus?

If you don’t want to eat, you can eat smaller meals more frequently. On the basis of ensuring that the total amount is certain, there is no problem if you don’t follow normal eating habits. If you blindly take shortcuts, you will only end up with problems sooner or later.

3. Afraid of edema, choose to drink less water

Edema is a common problem during pregnancy, especially in the third trimester. Many women’s hands and feet are like inflated balloons, which are round and round. It's thick and feels like it's going to explode.

In order to alleviate this situation, many women choose the simplest way: drink less water. Since it is called edema, wouldn’t it be better if I drink less water?

It can only be said that the thinking is too simple. The so-called edema is actually the leakage of tissue fluid from the cells. Although there is indeed a certain connection with water, drinking less water will not solve the problem.

On the contrary, drinking less water will have a greater impact on human health. You must know that people can live for at least a week without eating, but if they do not drink water, they can live for at most 3 days.

Whether it is metabolism, growth and development, or the division of genetic material and cell differentiation, these physiological processes are inseparable from the participation of water. Even the most basic amniotic fluid synthesis requires water.

Don’t think that you are short of water if you are not thirsty. People will not feel that they are short of water before they are thirsty. However, in medicine, when a person feels thirsty, the body has already been dehydrated due to lack of water. Damage occurred due to water.

If you want to make up for it, you have to make up for it on a regular basis. The effect of temporary fixation is not great.

The above three major misunderstandings are all commonly encountered by everyone in daily life. I hope that all pregnant mothers can correct their mistakes as soon as possible and correct their mentality. It will only take another 10 months to put this period of time into full use. Once you get over it, other issues will be easy to deal with. I believe no one wants to waste all their efforts, right?
