Pregnant, watch your weight

Fast sugars

Bad news ! Chocolate, cakes and other sweets must stay in the cupboard… In case of small hunger pangs, consume dried fruits, already dosed so as not to fall into the package: “A dozen hazelnuts or almonds and two or three dried apricots”. And why not rice cakes topped with dark chocolate or organic cookies, much less sweet and fatty than their equivalent?

Dairy products

Some dairy products may be better tolerated than others by expectant mothers. If you suffer from stomach acid, reduce your yogurt intake to one per day. If necessary, replace it with a petit-suisse or cheese type Comté or Parmesan, paying attention to the proportions: fatter than yogurt, do not exceed 15 or 20 g per serving. For those of you who have had difficulty digesting milk since you were expecting Baby, consider vegetable juices (almonds, soybeans, etc.).

To consume without moderation

The fruits, to prevent bloating, and water, to prevent water retention.

Treat yourself too …

Gluttony is not necessarily a sin, even while waiting for Baby … Make a reservation on Sunday for the croissant or pain au chocolat for breakfast. And, if it’s summer, allow yourself to fall for a sorbet at snack time, from time to time: indulging yourself is important!

Don’t forget to play sports!

Your big bottle is no excuse for workouts. Walking, swimming, exercise bike … gentle exercises are good for you! Be careful, however, to preserve the baby and its implantation during the first two months of pregnancy.
