Will the baby not grow if you eat less in late pregnancy?

Your baby will not grow if you eat less in late pregnancy. The growth and development of the fetus gradually accelerates from mid-pregnancy until late pregnancy and delivery. At the same time, the mid-pregnancy and late pregnancy is also an important period for accumulating energy for life activities such as lactation after delivery. Insufficient food intake at this time may cause fetal development to slow down, resulting in the birth of a low-birth-weight fetus. In the late stage of pregnancy, dietary advice is to appropriately increase the intake of fish, poultry, eggs, milk, lean meat, seafood, and if necessary, supplement animal blood, liver and other iron-rich foods, which can maintain appropriate weight gain. In the event of fetal growth and development restriction, it is recommended to go to the hospital in time.
