Patient's question:
How to eat well in early pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
Hello:(1) In the early stages of pregnancy, the wife may experience morning sickness, characterized by nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, food preferences, and acid cravings. At this time, the dietary principle should be easy to digest, low in fat, light in flavor, and small, frequent meals. While ensuring her health, try to accommodate her preferences as much as possible. She should eat more vegetables and fruits and receive adequate B vitamins to alleviate pregnancy symptoms. For mild vomiting, she should rest a bit before eating; for severe vomiting, she should increase fluid intake and try to eat more and better when the vomiting subsides; and for those who cannot eat at all, medical attention should be sought promptly.
