Oatmeal Breakfast Casserole For Your Pregnancy Diet
Healthy Breakfast For Pregnancy Diet
Are you waking up hungry or sick?
Most pregnant women wake up feeling sick, and nothing is more horrible than starting the day sick because then you just don’t feel like doing anything.
I felt great my first pregnancy, but I did start having some morning sickness with my second pregnancy. But I applied these tips to getting rid of morning sickness and seriously…… no….. for real….. I totally got rid of it. And since then I have been giving all the pregos I work with in My Fit Mom-To-Be Workouts, this tip and it has helped them get rid of morning sickness too.
But let me tell you another thing that will help you feel better…….
EAT BREAKFAST!
Yes, I know you may not feel like it right now. But force yourself. Start taking a few bites and you will see how soon you will start feeling better.
If you can’t stomach a meal, this may be a perfect time to have a PROTEIN SHAKE.
mPower is protein powder specifically formulated for pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Most of the time, when pregnant women feel sick, it’s because the stomach is empty. Remember that the baby gets all your nutrients first so you will be feeling depleted faster and easier than usual.
And right now your body is working so hard to sustain your pregnancy that you are burning up that food and fast. So it’s incredibly important to eat and eat healthy and eat often.
If you only feel like eating CARBS, don’t worry. I feel you. Not only did I feel like that for weeks, but again, I have worked with thousand upon thousands of women who work with me with My Fit Mom-To-Be Workouts that also feel that way.
So I came up with a list of HEALTHY CARBS TO EAT WHEN “CRAVINGS” hit.
I find that a lot of women also feel sick because it takes them too long to eat once they are up. Sometimes they just don’t feel like making anything.
Which is why I like healthy recipes like this divine Oatmeal Casserole. It is so freakin’ delicious and it’s so easy to make.
I would make this once a week when I was feeling good and that way when I woke up I could quickly throw a piece in the microwave and eat it before feeling really bad. So I never ended up feeling terrible because as soon as I started eating, I would feel better.
It’s important to make healthy choices when you are pregnant.
You know, everything you do while pregnant affects your baby.
Even EXERCISE has a huge impact on your baby.
Check it out…….
So many women hate being pregnant because they get huge and gain a ton of weight during pregnancy. So then they feel uncomfortable, they can’t sleep good, they always feel fatigued, nothing fits them, and worse of all they can’t lose their weight postpartum and end up with stretch marks that don’t go away and a pooch for years that make them still look 5 months pregnant.
Don’t do it!
It’s not worth it!
Don’t eat for 2. You don’t need to.
I wrote all about EATING FOR 2 and tons of tips for you with your pregnancy diet here.
You will totally regret it after you have that baby and end up with postpartum depression, hormonal and not able to lose your baby weight.
You don’t have to diet by any means, you just have to make good choices. That’s what I did, and I only gained 20 lbs in both my pregnancies. Check it out……..
And I lost it all within weeks after having the baby.
And it’s not just me, because “I’m a trainer”.
I have worked with thousands upon thousands of pregnant women who have gotten similar results.
Check it out……..
It’s insane though, it really drives my crazy that doctors don’t educate pregnant women enough about nutrition and how healthy eating is crucial during pregnancy.
