Looking back now, at the stage of my pregnancy, my stomach would always grumble in the middle of the night, and sometimes I would either really want to eat or be afraid of hungry babies in my stomach, and I would get up to forage for food. It may really be the cause of pregnancy, eating too much is not hungry, either can't eat, or want to eat non-stop, I don't know if everyone has the same symptoms as me.
My little sister, Wenwen was always hungry in the middle of the night during her pregnancy, she was too lazy to get food, chose to endure the wind and waves for a while, and carried a little hunger past. And I can't bear it, I love to eat it myself. If you are really hungry, it is like the feeling of your stomach being hollowed out, and if you don't eat, your heart will be entangled and you will not be able to sleep. I usually choose to drink some porridge or let my husband order some noodles to eat, and eat whatever. But in fact, during pregnancy, eating in the middle of the night is also a bit exquisite.
Some people will ask: Does eating in the middle of the night have an impact on the baby?
We look at the structure of the pregnant belly from the perspective, due to the changes in pregnancy, the uterus slowly increases and compresses the stomach, which will lead to the formation of a "flat and long" type of the stomach, because the level of progesterone and estrogen fluctuates relatively largely during pregnancy, which leads to a slowdown in the peristalsis of the gastrointestinal tract, which is why pregnant mothers need to eat less and eat less naturally hungry fast.
When you are hungry, you should eat, otherwise it will affect your sleep because of entanglement. If you choose not to eat when you are hungry, the baby may also "hug you unevenly" for you, and make a fuss to prevent you from sleeping. And during pregnancy, in addition to the nutritional supplement of dietary intake, we also need to consider the nutritional needs of the fetus, and we will consider more for the fetus at this stage.
So what should you eat in the middle of the night that is more suitable for your baby?
I personally think that the factors considered in the middle of the night are more or less quick and convenient, always have some bread/biscuits etc. You can choose whole wheat bread, which can be more resistant to hunger and also helps the digestion and absorption of the gastrointestinal tract. Cookies can choose soda biscuits, which can have the effect of relieving morning sickness and can also achieve the purpose of nourishing the stomach. In addition, if you want to eat something hot, you will make noodles, cook dumplings, etc., and mainly choose foods that are conducive to digestion.
If you eat at night, you also need to pay attention to appropriate cooperation. Avoid eating some watery and milk-like foods, because it is easy to cause stomach upset or frequent urination, which will delay the night rest.
Secondly, it should be noted that before ten o'clock to start preparing to rest and sleep, staying up late is more likely to lead to hunger, which will also have an impact on the development of the fetus, and the amount of activity before going to bed is reduced, so the probability of waking up hungry in the middle of the night will be reduced.
My advice to everyone is: eat when you should eat, don't starve yourself, and don't starve your baby. During pregnancy, we are the "queen", we should eat and drink. In summary: pay attention to the choice of foods that use digestion and absorption to reduce excessive intake of water.
