Congratulations! You've made it to the third trimester!
Baby's Development This Week:
- More brain cells
- Body fat
A word about eating during the third trimester:
You will begin to feel fatigued more often in your third trimester, and you will need your rest. You may find preparing food to become more difficult. Try to stick to your diet as much as you can even though you will probably not feel like cooking. Here are some tips to make it easier to get through preparing your food:
- Prepare foods in advance
- Eat six smaller meals during the day to maintain your energy
- Keep eating foods that are high in protein
- Maintain your cravings
- Keep hydrated
Eating correctly during your pregnancy week by week will help you when you have cramps, nausea, back pain, or stomach aches. It is recommended you use foods that are easily prepared but still nutritious. If you encounter any difficulties contact your doctor for a list of acceptable foods. Fresh fruit and vegetables not only taste good, but are simple to prepare and will provide you with enough vitamins and minerals to keep you and your baby healthy.
