Patient's question:
Now I'm 38 weeks pregnant and sometimes feel very hungry at 4 a.m. Previously at 7 months pregnant, my blood sugar was a bit high, but now it has come down, and I haven't suppressed it much. I want to ask if I can eat something. If I don't eat, will it interfere with the baby?Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, if you only feel a bit hungry, you can measure your blood sugar. If it's normal, there's no need to defecate. You can eat a small amount of low-calorie foods like cucumbers or tomatoes to relieve the hunger, but don't overeat. It will absolutely not interfere with your baby's growth and development.Recommendation: Go to the endocrinology department of the hospital for a thorough check-up and consultation. The doctor will provide appropriate guidance based on your specific condition. With your cooperation, you can have a healthy and intelligent baby!
