[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What trimester? Can you make sure she has more healthy food around? What does she consider healthy? Yogurt, fruit, nuts, vegetables… proteins. It’s a struggle to cook and figure out what sounds appealing when you’re pregnant sometimes. [/quote] OP here. She is almost in the third trimester. We keep our fridge and pantry well stocked with healthy food. She eats everything you mentioned above. We stick to eating lean proteins, veggies, complex carbs, healthy fats, etc. She doesn’t eat much diary but does eat yogurt regularly. It’s the amount that she is eating that worries me. It doesn’t seem like enough. She also doesn’t eat many foods or won’t treat herself because it’s “ too unhealthy”. [/quote] I'm sorry she feels that way. 12 lbs is low for going into the third trimester. And one egg for five hours? Wow. Definitely some eating issues there. The baby does need fat to develop its brain. If she's planning on nursing this could become an issue also. Babies who aren't fed enough don't sleep well and that tends to create maternal stress and so on. Have you consulted with anyone professional about this? Eating issues this deep definitely need professional help, and you're right that it's better to get a handle on it before the baby comes. Good luck![/quote] OP here. She does eat healthy fats. She doesn’t plan to breastfeed because she plans to do a diet. [/quote]
