Early pregnancy is a critical period for embryonic development, so pregnant women need to adjust their daily life and dietary habits in a timely manner, otherwise it may affect the normal development of the embryo, and even pose a risk of miscarriage or miscarriage. However, in terms of diet, due to the wide variety of foods, some pregnant women want to know if hawthorn can be eaten in the early stages of pregnancy?
Pregnant women in the early stages of pregnancy should not eat hawthorn. Although hawthorn has the effects of invigorating the spleen, stimulating appetite, and enhancing appetite, it also has the function of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. It has a certain stimulating effect on the smooth muscle of the uterus, which can easily lead to irregular contractions of the uterus. In addition, the embryo is not firmly attached to the uterus in the early stages of pregnancy. If pregnant women consume hawthorn, it may pose a risk of miscarriage. Therefore, pregnant women should eat it with caution.
If pregnant women suffer from morning sickness in the early stages of pregnancy and want to eat sour food to relieve morning sickness, they can eat green apples, grapes, bayberries, tomatoes and other foods. These foods also have a sour taste, which can help pregnant women relieve morning sickness, promote digestion, increase appetite, and are nutritious, ensuring the health of both the pregnant woman and the fetus.
In the early stages of pregnancy, pregnant women should mainly consume light and easily digestible foods, and try to choose fresh and natural foods. Avoid eating raw, cold, spicy, and stimulating foods, as well as foods containing additives, pigments, and preservatives, such as canned foods, beverages, and packaged convenience foods. Food should be thoroughly cleaned before consumption and cooked before consumption to avoid gastrointestinal discomfort.
