Wake up at 23 weeks pregnant, can't sleep at night, feel hungry, do you want to eat?
Waking up at night at 23 weeks of pregnancy and feeling hungry depends on the specific situation.
First of all, pregnant women in the third trimester have a faster metabolism and increased energy requirements, if they do feel hungry after waking up, they can eat some foods appropriately, such as low-sugar fruits, nuts, milk, etc., which are not only nutritious, but also help sleep. However, it should be noted that eating too much before going to bed can affect digestive function, increase the burden on the gastrointestinal tract, and can also lead to problems such as obesity. Therefore, you need to consider your own digestion and sleep quality before deciding whether to eat or not.
In addition, the enlarged uterus and fetus in the third trimester of pregnancy compress the stomach, resulting in a decrease in the volume of stomach content, and stomach discomfort is more likely to occur after meals, which in turn leads to difficulty falling asleep. In this case, consider eating smaller, more frequent meals and try to avoid hunger before bedtime.
In conclusion, it is common to wake up hungry at night at 23 weeks of pregnancy, and it is necessary to decide whether to eat food or not according to individual circumstances. You need to consider your digestion, sleep quality, and eating habits to make a reasonable decision. At the same time, it is important to maintain a good attitude during pregnancy.
