Pregnant women are very hungry at night, so protein should be supplemented for dinner. If you are hungry at night, you can make a cup of milk powder, eat some biscuits, or eat two boiled eggs. In addition, pregnant women can prepare some sesame paste, lotus root starch, bread and other foods for themselves. Of course, fruits are also indispensable, such as apples and oranges.
Precautions for diet in the third trimester:
In the third trimester, expectant mothers enter the final sprint stage, and the nutritional storage of mothers is particularly important. A safe, healthy and reasonable diet is a necessary prerequisite for a healthy birth of a fetus. Combined with the nutritional characteristics of the third trimester, we should make corresponding adjustments on the basis of the diet in the second trimester.
1. Diversified dietary requirements: In the third trimester, expectant mothers should not only supplement calories, but also pay attention to the supplementation of high-quality nutrients such as protein, clams, calcium and vitamins. They can eat less and eat more meals, which can be increased to more than 5 meals a day. Never take a lot of supplements to avoid obesity and macrosomia (expectant mothers should not gain more than 15 kg during pregnancy).
2, add enough calcium and iron to help the fetus' teeth and bones calcify well and prevent the expectant mother from anemia. You can eat more kelp, seaweed, shrimp, sesame, animal liver, eggs, fish and so on.
3. Increase the intake of plant protein, such as beans and bean products.
4. Reduce the intake of foods with high sugar content, such as fruits, sugar and honey. In order to prevent the fetus from growing too big, it will affect the smooth delivery.
5. Eat more foods with high nutritional value and small size, such as animal food; Eat less foods with low nutritional value and large volume, such as potatoes and sweet potatoes.
