What should I do if I gain too much weight during pregnancy?

After the national policy of liberalizing the second child, the nutrition clinic this year has seen many pregnant women who came to consult the diet adjustment because of rapid weight gain, the following share with you the common reasons: 1, weight rebound growth after the end of the reaction to pregnancy vomiting: pregnant women who have a reaction to pregnancy vomiting generally do not increase their weight in the early stages, and some even decrease. When the end of the reaction to pregnancy vomiting can eat, some people have improved appetite food intake short-term increase more; some people want to compensate for the lack of nutritional intake when the reaction to pregnancy vomiting and add a variety of nutrients; others after pregnancy digestion and absorption ability to improve, even if the amount of food does not increase, the weight will increase. This group of people generally in the end of the pregnancy vomiting reaction within a month or two of rapid weight gain, then you can slowly adjust the amount of diet to the pre-pregnancy level, increase the amount of activity, most of the later weight control is more ideal.  2, too much fruit: many people think that fruit is nutritious, can be supplemented with vitamins, eat more than okay. In fact, the sugar content of fruit is not low (such as apples contain 17-20% sugar, buns about 35%), and the fructose in fruit is easily converted into triglycerides. If only triglycerides exceed the standard, and usually like to eat fruit, drinks, desserts and other sweet food, reduce such food blood lipids can be achieved, that is to say, dyslipidemia is not always related to excessive fat intake, excessive sugar intake can also lead to dyslipidemia.  3, drink bone broth for calcium: once a pregnant woman grew 16 pounds a month, came to consult with me with a puzzled face, said she ate nothing different from the usual, I do not know why the growth so fast, I asked her cramps? She said, “I take calcium tablets and drink bone broth, I used to have cramps, but now I don’t”, I asked her when she started drinking bone broth, she said, “A month or so ago, because I always have cramps at night, my mom makes me bone broth every day”, I asked her how many bowls she drinks a day. She said, “Two or three bowls, sometimes three or four bowls if I want to drink it”. In addition to cholesterol, purines, seasonings and other basic calcium, food calcium must be preferred to dairy products. Drinking bone broth can not be a calcium supplement, but it can lead to rapid weight gain. Weight gain is not recommended for pregnant women who often drink a variety of animal soup before giving birth, can be postpartum soup milk, increase the fat content of milk, prolong the interval between infant breastfeeding.  4, nuts eat too much: eat more walnuts for the brain is a lot of people take care of pregnant women’s magic. Once saw a pregnant woman, eating 8-10 walnuts a day, pine nuts, melon seeds, pistachios almost every day, she was overweight growth each month, and gestational diabetes. Later to develop her daily recipes, she was advised to eat nuts every other day, each time 2 walnuts or a dozen pistachios will be enough.  5, there are people who think that pregnancy should eat more good food, otherwise it will starve the child or lead to child malnutrition. In fact, the mother and child will automatically coordinate nutrients between the first trimester of pregnancy and the basic diet before pregnancy can be; 4-6 when you can slightly increase the intake of meat, eggs, milk, etc., 7 months later to ensure that at least 1 egg per day, 150 grams of lean meat, 500 ml of milk, the main food can be slightly increased according to the situation 25-50 grams.  These are the common reasons why pregnant women gain weight too quickly. With the development of the economy, low birth weight or malnutrition of babies due to insufficient nutrient intake is rare. The most common cases now are huge babies or high birth weight babies, which is a great risk for the child to develop obesity, diabetes or other chronic diseases later. Therefore, it is recommended that pregnant mothers eat a reasonable diet and exercise to control weight gain during pregnancy within a reasonable range, both for a smooth delivery and for the health of the child as an adult.
