In the second trimester, the baby's brain nerves develop very quickly. During this stage, expectant mothers should increase nutrition, and the nutrition should be comprehensive. It is necessary to eat enough protein-rich foods, preferably high-quality protein, such as fish and beans. The protein contained in these foods is beneficial to the growth and development of the fetal brain nerves. Let’s discuss in detail what nutrients you need to supplement during the second trimester of pregnancy. In addition, in the second trimester, pregnant women should also consume appropriate amounts of oleic acid-containing foods. Consuming appropriate amounts of oleic acid-containing foods is beneficial to the growth and development of the fetal brain nerves. Oleic acid-rich foods include walnut kernels, peanut kernels and other foods. In the second trimester, pregnant women should also supplement foods rich in B vitamins, because B vitamins are also very important for the development of the fetus. Vitamin B21, vitamin B22, vitamin B26, and vitamin B212 are important for maintaining normal development of the fetus. Foods rich in vitamin B21 include rice, foods rich in vitamin B22 include beans, foods rich in vitamin B26 include fruits and vegetables such as bananas and apples, foods rich in vitamin B212 include fish, eggs and other foods. During the second trimester, you should also ensure adequate intake of vitamin D and vitamin C. Foods rich in vitamin D include carrots, broccoli, peppers and so on. Foods rich in vitamin C include leafy vegetables such as cabbage, rapeseed and other vegetables and fruits such as strawberry sprouts, jujube and other foods. However, pregnant women should not take hawthorn fruit during pregnancy, because taking hawthorn fruit may cause miscarriage. Pregnant women should also pay attention to supplementing nutrients during the second trimester. Pay attention to supplementing foods rich in copper, such as eating more pig blood, lean meat and other foods. These foods are rich in iron, which can prevent the fetus from suffering from anemia after eating. Also pay attention to eating some calcium-rich foods, such as drinking some milk, and eating some river shrimps. In addition, you should also get some sun exposure. |
