Is it safe to pregnant women fasting?

For most people assume that pregnant women should not fast. In fact, the mother if the pregnancy is not a problem, then it is OK for pregnant women to fast, provided nutrients to the fetus at the time of eating a meal or fasting are met.

The last time I posted about tips for staying healthy and fit in the month of Ramadan, this time I will write about pregnant women should or should not fast.

According to Dr. Alvin setiawan, Siloam Hospitals Semanggi SPOG of MRCCC. He said that fasting is not recommended during the first trimester of pregnancy are usually marked by nausea and vomiting. Because nutritional deficiencies khawatirkan fetus.

But after the second quarter and without diabetes or hypertension that are allowed to run fast. So if you want to quickly, but in a state of pregnancy should first consult their health. Please do not fast because fasting is actually simply changing diet alone.

So do not worry that pregnant women during the day do not eat at all, the fetus still get the calories from a backup source of her mother.

Among these pregnancies require approximately 2,300 calories per pound of food calories because the nutrients in the body of the mother in the joint will be at birth the fetus. Therefore, in accordance with nutrition can you do when you eat a meal and break the fast development, thus by the remains of the fetus.
