Summary of IG Live | Saturday Night with Yen X Naomi
Naomi’s Pregnancy Journey Pt1
Some Pre-Partum Challenges Naomi shared:
1. Experiencing heart burn & difficulty in breathing when she overeats
2. Backaches due to the weight and how her baby girl stretches forward
How to tackle heartburns and difficulty breathing?
- Have lighter meals with more frequency
- Keep yourself hydrated
- Don’t lie down immediately after your meal
Avoid Eating
Raw food, cold, deli meat over the counter (eg. cold cut ham) and food that are under-cooked
Common Misconception:
“ I’m eating for two “
You only need an additional of 300 calories intake per day.
300 calories? That’s equivalent to 2 pratas!
How to tackle backaches and difficulty in sleeping?
1. Sleep on the sides to avoid straining the spine and back (usually for the 3rd trimester)
2. Go for massages after the 20th week to help relieve the aches and strains on your back
Massage will help you in:
- Improving blood circulation
- Relieve cramps
- Reduce water retention
- Helps in Pre-Partum stress
