Hello everyone, I am a tomato mother who practices lifelong learning!
I believe everyone knows that during pregnancy, the nutritional source of the fetus is mainly the diet of the pregnant mother, but not every pregnant woman knows how to eat, so that some fetal treasures are small and some fetal treasures are large.
After my cousin became pregnant, in order to keep up with the nutritional supply of the baby in the womb, she specially invited the aunt who cooked to live and serve. After surviving the early stage of morning sickness, the cousin can be said to have a "big appetite" after the second trimester, coupled with a pair of skillful hands of the cooking aunt, the cousin ate every meal very happy.
The cousin's family said: This cooking aunt spends money to ask for it, the cousin eats well during pregnancy, and the child in the womb naturally grows well.
But reality soon gave the cousin a head slap, and when the pregnancy was examined, the doctor reminded the cousin that the recent weight gain rate was too fast. The growth of the fetus in the abdomen is very fierce, if it is paid attention to, the weight is controlled in time, and the fetus is likely to become a giant child.
My cousin had heard about the risks of giving birth to a huge baby, so she called me crying when she got home. The cousin asked very directly: "Cousin, pregnancy is really difficult, the first trimester pregnancy reaction can not eat." In the third trimester, there is an appetite, and the doctor lets it be taboo. I am less than two months away from my due date, and it is said that the fetus has matured, and it is not okay to eat according to my own preferences? ”
The third trimester is the end of pregnancy near October, marking the maturity of the baby. It has entered a relatively stable and safe stage. I think many pregnant mothers, like my cousin, believe that there should be not too many concerns about diet, and that choosing what they like to eat will not affect the fetus. However, the truth is not what everyone thinks.
☆ Why is it said that in the third trimester, pregnant mothers can't just pick the diet they like to eat?
The development cycle of the fetal baby is indeed the fastest in the second trimester, but in the third trimester, the development of the fetal baby will not stop, but will slow down the growth rate.
If it is close to the stage before the expected date of delivery, pregnant mothers blindly enjoy their own happiness, and the excess nutrients absorbed by the fetus in the womb indirectly lead to an increase in their growth rate, and the possibility of a huge child will be greatly increased.
In the third trimester of pregnancy, pregnant mothers do not pay attention to reasonable control of diet, the consequences of open eating, in addition to the appearance of macrosomia, resulting in increased risk of labor, the health of the mother itself is also harmful and unhelpful:
Causes constipation
With the increase of gestational age, the uterus enlarges and gradually rises into the abdominal cavity of the pregnant mother, compressing the rectum, causing intestinal peristalsis to slow down and weakening digestive function. If at this time, do not pay attention to a reasonable diet, dietary fiber intake is small, it will cause constipation problems.
Causes complications of pregnancy
Pregnant mothers are overnourished, in addition to causing the baby to develop too quickly in the abdomen and affecting the normal birth, it may also cause abnormalities in the mother's blood sugar and blood pressure. This is a very dangerous phenomenon in the third trimester of pregnancy, and pregnancy complications may occur if you are not careful, and there is a risk of premature birth and miscarriage.
Causes stretch marks
The same is the birth of a baby, some mothers recover well after childbirth, especially the abdomen can not see stretch marks at all, but some mothers are just the opposite, the "map pattern" of the postpartum abdomen even can not bear to look at themselves. The reason for this difference is directly related to the diet of pregnant mothers in the third trimester.
Because the pregnant mother's diet has no scruples, resulting in the rapid growth of the fetus, the uterine height and abdomen also increase, and the subcutaneous tissue of the pregnant mother cannot keep up with the speed of abdominal expansion, and stretch marks will appear.
For the safety of the fetus and the baby, for the health of the pregnant mother after childbirth, the diet during pregnancy must not "break the vows" at the critical moment of a foot in the door.
☆ How should I eat in the last month of pregnancy?
These types of food should be arranged more, which can not only meet the development law of the fetus at this stage, but also take into account the physical changes of the pregnant mother.
Eat more high-protein foods to reserve strength for childbirth
In the last month of pregnancy, eat more high-protein foods, which is both to make energy reserves during childbirth and to lay the foundation for breast milk secretion.
I still remember that I was before giving birth, because in the final stage, the rest was affected, the appetite was not good, and the arrangement of three meals a day was as reasonable as possible. High-protein ingredients such as eggs, fish and shrimp, and lean meats are arranged evenly for lunch and dinner.
Eat more foods with high calcium to prevent calcium deficiency during pregnancy
When I was pregnant until my third trimester, I had leg cramps from time to time. After consulting the obstetric examiner, it was learned that this was a manifestation of calcium deficiency. Later, I also checked the information and learned that half of the calcium in the fetus was ingested at the last stage. Therefore, in order to ensure that the calcium of the mother can keep up, it is necessary to eat more calcium-containing foods.
I used shrimp skins to cook, and when I felt hungry, I would choose some nuts to fill my hunger, and these foods had a good calcium content. In addition, the tofu and tofu of bean products are also very high in calcium, and it is also a good choice to change the pattern into the dish, and finally insist on drinking a cup of milk in the morning and evening.
Pay attention to dietary fiber supplementation to relieve constipation symptoms
Listen to many pregnant women around complain, the problem of constipation in the third trimester is getting more and more serious, at this time it is necessary to eat more foods with sufficient dietary fiber. Dietary fiber helps with gastrointestinal motility and can alleviate symptoms of constipation to a certain extent.
At that time, I was a reasonable arrangement of fresh vegetables and fruits, green vegetables in season were basically available at every meal, and I chose my favorite fruits for afternoon tea. Such as: dragon fruit, kiwi fruit and apples, etc., and occasionally eat some oatmeal to regulate the stomach, the effect is very good.
Increase the frequency of coarse food and avoid rapid weight growth
Staple foods such as rice and noodles are high in calories, which can easily cause people to gain weight. Therefore, in the third trimester, pregnant mothers who want to control weight gain can use coarse grains instead of staple foods.
Millet porridge, polenta, sweet potatoes, etc., can be arranged every three to five meals to replace the staple food, not only can be ingested from coarse food dietary fiber, vitamins, but also can control weight, kill two birds with one stone.
Eating healthy and balanced nutritional intake during pregnancy benefits not only the mother, but also the practice of being responsible for the fetus!
