Many families have a misunderstanding that they are pregnant, so they must try their best to supplement their bodies and eat various nutrients. But this method will not only bring a heavy burden to the pregnant woman's body, but also affect the health of the fetus; Obese pregnant women are more likely to suffer from pregnancy complications than normal-weight pregnant women. Therefore, during pregnancy, we should not blindly supplement the body for pregnant women, but try to achieve a balanced diet and control calorie intake.
Pay attention to the intake of certain nutrients in certain periods, such as increasing the intake of protein in the second trimester and increasing the intake of protein in the third trimester, and pay attention to supplementing vitamins and trace elements; At other times, you can eat normally according to the activity and personal situation of pregnant women.
In addition to pregnancy, the confinement stage is also easy to cause expectant mothers to become fat. During this period, we should control the intake of calories and eat less foods with high fat and high protein energy; Especially during lactation, it is not the better to eat as much as possible, but to be scientific and balanced, and to have three meals regularly. If you lose weight during pregnancy, you can't start strenuous weight loss activities after delivery. Xu Gugen, chief physician of the Department of Endocrinology of the Second People's Hospital of Guangdong Province, once pointed out in an interview that losing weight too early or too late is not conducive to the recovery of postpartum mothers. Generally speaking, you can start to lose weight rhythmically in the second month after delivery.
In the first month after delivery, it is mainly to let the parturient recover from postpartum weakness, and at this stage, she is also responsible for breastfeeding, which requires a lot of energy. Never lose weight by strictly dieting. The best time to lose weight is two months to six months after delivery. If you choose to lose weight after half a year, or more than one year, the motivation of new mothers to lose weight will be reduced, which is not conducive to physical recovery.
Dieting is not recommended for postpartum weight loss, because at this stage of postpartum, mothers need all kinds of nutrition to promote physical recovery and feed their children. So just control the intake of high calories and high sugar.
Breastfeeding is an effective way to lose weight. In the process of breastfeeding, the secretion of milk finds a way to consume energy during pregnancy. There is also exercise. Proper exercise is helpful to mother's health and body shaping, and maintaining high-quality sleep is helpful to promote hormone secretion, make the body's metabolism more vigorous and accelerate the decomposition and consumption of fat.
