What to eat in 9 months?
Diet tips
In the ninth month of pregnancy, the expectant mother will still feel squeezed in her stomach, so she may not eat much every meal. During the ninth pregnancy, please continue to control the intake of salt to reduce the discomfort of edema. Because there is not much room for food in pregnant women's stomachs, don't drink a lot of water at a time, so as not to affect eating.
Main nutrients in September: dietary fiber
Function: prevent constipation and promote intestinal peristalsis.
In the third trimester of pregnancy, the increasing number of fetal babies has brought a burden to expectant mothers, who are prone to constipation. Because of constipation, internal hemorrhoids and external hemorrhoids may happen again. In order to relieve the pain caused by constipation, pregnant mommy should eat enough dietary fiber to promote intestinal peristalsis. Fresh vegetables and fruits such as whole wheat bread, celery, carrots, sweet potatoes, potatoes, bean sprouts and cauliflower are rich in dietary fiber. Pregnant mommy should also exercise outdoors properly and develop the habit of defecating regularly every day.
Nutritional supplement
In this month, it is necessary to supplement vitamins and enough iron, calcium and water-soluble vitamins, of which thiamine is the most important. For example, in the ninth month of pregnancy, thiamine deficiency can easily cause vomiting, burnout and fatigue, and also affect the uterine contraction during delivery, prolong the labor process and make delivery difficult. Insufficient iron intake will affect the iron storage in the fetus, and it is easy to suffer from calcium deficiency anemia after delivery. Calcium needs to be supplemented throughout pregnancy, but more than half of the calcium in the fetus is stored in the last 2 months of pregnancy. If the intake of calcium is insufficient for 9 months of pregnancy, the fetus will use the calcium in the maternal skeleton, causing rickets in pregnant women.
Pregnant women should pay special attention to strengthen nutrition in the last three months, avoid partial eclipse, and pay attention to the reasonable collocation of nutrients contained in diet.
