Reduce the intake of staple food
Pregnant women can eat 70% to 80% of the staple food every time. They can eat more coarse grains such as millet porridge and corn porridge. These foods are rich in vitamin b 1 and are essential nutrients for pregnant women.
Add more protein.
In the last month, pregnant women should eat more high-energy foods such as protein and sugar. Protein-rich foods mainly include chicken, fish, shrimp, pork and other animal proteins, and milk and beans are also rich in protein. You can eat more fruits in sugary foods, but not too much. Excessive sugar intake is prone to pregnancy-induced hypertension.
Eat more vegetables
Pregnant women are particularly prone to constipation and hemorrhoids in the third trimester, which can lead to premature delivery. Therefore, pregnant women should eat more vegetables in the last month to prevent constipation and hemorrhoids. In addition, vegetables are rich in vitamins and trace elements, which is very beneficial to the health of mothers.
Stop taking calcium tablets
Generally, calcium supplementation is not suitable for the third trimester, but many pregnant women have been taking calcium tablets, thinking that the more calcium supplementation, the better. Actually, it's not. Calcium tablets should be stopped at the latest in the 33rd week of pregnancy. Eating too many calcium tablets in the third trimester will harden the fetal bones and affect the delivery. In addition, excessive calcium supplementation can also age the placenta.
