Patient's question:
Recently, I just got pregnant, and my family members also attach great importance to this. However, my teacher likes eating oatmeal, but my family members disagree. But it led to a miscarriage. I want to ask if eating oatmeal or cereal can cause a miscarriage?Doctor's answer:
Pregnancy is a time when you can eat oatmeal, and it will never cause miscarriage. It is recommended to have a varied diet, eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, balance meat and vegetables, maintain a good mood, and regularly visit the hospital for thorough checks on the fetus's growth and development and the pregnant woman's health to see if everything is normal. Avoid strenuous exercise in the early stages of pregnancy to prevent repeated miscarriages. In the early stages of pregnancy, take folic acid tablets to prevent fetal cardiovascular malformations, and continue taking them until the end of the third month of pregnancy before stopping.
