Just entered my 8th month and the appetite is all over the place. Want to make sure baby gets proper nutrition in these last weeks. Pls share what you all ate, any easy ghar ka food ideas would help.
My mom made sure I had lots of curd, ragi, dates and greens in the last months for strength and good iron. Simple home food, nothing fancy. Whatever you eat, keep it fresh and home cooked, that is the best in this stage.
In the third trimester I focused on protein, calcium and iron, dal, paneer, eggs, leafy greens, dates and lots of fruit. Smaller frequent meals helped since there is less stomach space now. Keep up the water and your prenatal vitamins too.
I had to watch my sugar in the last trimester, so I split meals small and added protein with every carb. Avoided sweets and too much fruit juice. If you have any sugar issue, please plan the diet with your doctor, it really matters now.
I am in the third trimester now and honestly there is no room left in my belly haha, so it is tiny meals all day. I keep nuts, fruit and curd handy. Heartburn is real so I avoid heavy oily stuff in the evening.
