Do you overeat during pregnancy?

Patient's question:

I want to have a cesarean section, the doctor said that postpartum constipation is not allowed to eat. Hello, can I eat a big meal before delivery?

Doctor's answer:

Hello! This friend, it is not advisable to overeat during pregnancy, otherwise, it may interfere with the surgery. You need to be fasting for 6 hours before the surgery, and the day before the surgery, you should have easily digestible food. If you overeat before birth, it will affect intestinal movement after anesthesia, leading to severe indigestion, or even recurrence of intestinal obstruction. Additionally, for cesarean section patients during the recovery period, the patient's dietary condition and care are also very important. The patient must pay attention to their own diet and eat more light food to avoid unnecessary harm. I hope the above answer can help you. Thank you.
