Pregnancy is a critical period, and pregnant women need to have a balanced diet and nutrition to promote fetal growth and development. However, eating more is not necessarily better. If the diet is improper and too much food is consumed, it can easily lead to obesity, which is not only detrimental to physical health but also has a negative impact on fetal development. Therefore, pregnant women should do weight testing and timely and reasonable control. However, is weight measurement done before or after meals during pregnancy?
Weighing during pregnancy before and after meals may not yield accurate results. Women can also weigh themselves in the morning, which will be more accurate. In order to avoid unreasonable weight gain, women should not eat too many sweets, which can easily cause blood sugar fluctuations. If the appetite is good, they should not eat or drink too much to avoid rapid weight gain, which will be difficult to control later on.
Women are more prone to hunger during pregnancy and tend to eat desserts between meals. However, desserts can also lead to weight gain. Women can replace them with fruits, which are nutritious and rich in vitamins and other substances, which can easily create a sense of fullness and prevent rapid weight gain.
Proper aerobic exercise during pregnancy can also help control weight, including swimming, yoga, etc. Women should pay attention to appropriate intensity, not too intense, and also pay attention to exercise time, so that the body does not feel tired. Moderate exercise can also strengthen blood circulation and alleviate back pain and soreness during pregnancy.
