I was too hungry to sleep at night during pregnancy. What to eat and how to eat is good for the fetus? Several precautions should be kept in mind.

Many pregnant mothers have encountered such a situation. At the beginning of pregnancy, they can't eat anything and live on a mouthful of fairy gas. Slowly, with the growth of the fetus, it is often full to eat a little, but it will be hungry every once in a while. Sometimes I'm too hungry to sleep in the middle of the night. If I don't eat the baby, my stomach will panic. If I eat it, I'm afraid of gaining weight, which is not good for my health.

During pregnancy, because the pregnant mother's stomach itself is slow, if you eat midnight snack, it will not only increase the burden on the pregnant mother's stomach, but also affect the quality of sleep. Moreover, eating too much late at night can easily lead to obesity of pregnant mothers. If it is late, it may also cause the fetus to be too large to give birth smoothly.

Because each pregnant mother has a different constitution, some pregnant mothers can eat, drink and play during pregnancy, some pregnant mothers spit out doubts about life, some are unwell in the first trimester, and will return to normal in the second and third trimesters. In the second trimester, especially in the third trimester, many pregnant mothers will be full after eating a little, and will be hungry after a while. Why? There are three main reasons.

With the gradual enlargement of pregnant mothers' uterus, many pregnant mothers will feel that although their appetite is good, they will feel full after eating a little. This is because the enlarged uterus is facing the pregnant mother's stomach, resulting in a smaller and more crowded stomach. Therefore, many pregnant mothers will feel full after eating a little.

Due to the gradual development of the fetus, although the stomach was squeezed, the function of the stomach did not disappear. Many pregnant mothers can only eat a little at a time, but their stomachs are still digesting, and the fetus in their stomachs should also absorb nutrients. So two people are absorbing nutrition, so how can a little food feed two mouths? So the pregnant mother will appear and eat all the time, but she will be hungry again after a while.

Some pregnant mothers have severe reactions during pregnancy. In order to reduce the morning sickness reaction, they can only eat some digestible foods. As a result, your food is digested very quickly, and you will be hungry after a while.

If you don't eat something at night during pregnancy, you can't sleep. Do you want to stay up until dawn? The answer is of course not. If you are really hungry at night during pregnancy, it is still not possible to adjust the meal time. You can eat midnight snack at night during pregnancy, but you should pay attention to the following matters:

If pregnant mothers often feel hungry at night, then pregnant mothers can choose to eat less meals a day and try to control eating 2 hours before going to bed. This will try to digest food before going to bed, so as not to affect the digestive function and sleep quality of pregnant mothers.

Eating a lot is not only bad for pregnant mother and fetus, but also causes problems in fetal development, or damages the digestive function of pregnant mother. For example, eat some high-calorie and high-fat foods. Such as fried chicken, chocolate, French fries, milk tea, etc. These high-calorie, high-fat foods will slow down the digestive ability of pregnant mothers, and also easily lead to the risks of gestational diabetes and hypertension.

Foods with high fat and salt, such as instant noodles and potato chips, are more likely to cause some pregnancy problems for pregnant mothers, and not only that, but also endanger the development and health of the fetus.

Many misconceptions about pregnancy are that pregnant mothers have to eat enough when they are hungry, because the mother is hungry and the baby is hungry. However, some surveys have found that 85% of pregnant women are obese in the third trimester, while 94% of fetuses have not gained weight. In other words, the nutrition that mother ate midnight snack did not go to the fetus, but stayed in her own body.

Therefore, pregnant mothers should try not to overeat after midnight snack. First of all, overeating is easy to damage the gastrointestinal health of pregnant mothers. In the third trimester, if you eat too much and are full, it will also make the fetus grow too big and affect normal delivery. If you can, you'd better eat late at night.

When choosing food at night, avoid flatulence foods, such as sweet potatoes and taro, because these foods will produce a lot of gas during digestion, which will lead to gastrointestinal discomfort for pregnant mothers.
