18 weeks dietary advice and recipes

Pregnancy 18 weeks diet considerations

At this time, it is very important to arrange diets scientifically. Eating more does not mean that the nutrition is comprehensive, and it is possible that some of the nutrients needed by the fetus and pregnant women are still lacking. Some mothers commonly experience weight gain during pregnancy, but the birth of a fetus is very thin, which is caused by imbalanced nutrition.

You need to drink 1-1.5 liters a day. You can also drink milk. Milk is rich in minerals and protein, and it is very suitable for mother and child. If you are fat, you can drink skim milk. If you have abdominal distension, abdominal pain, diarrhea and other symptoms after drinking milk, you can drink yogurt or non-fat yogurt. Yogurt inhibits the reproduction of harmful organisms in the intestine and is more suitable for pregnant women. If you have the habit of drinking tea before pregnancy, you can still drink tea after pregnancy, but do not drink strong tea. Try not to drink coffee.

Lead accumulated in the bones of pregnant women will dissolve into the blood, affecting the brain development of the fetus through the blood circulation of the placenta, leading to the development of mental retardation and epilepsy; it will also affect the development of the fetal tooth germ, making young children susceptible to dental caries. To avoid lead pollution, attention should be paid to: no printed foods, especially newspapers; no used chopsticks and containers; as little as possible on the road to reduce the inhalation of automobile exhaust.
