Can pregnant women eat chocolate?

Pregnant women can eat chocolate, but pay attention to the amount.

Pregnant women eating chocolate have a positive effect on the behavior of the fetus. Although the real cause of this effect has not been fully ascertained, it is certain that when pregnant women eat chocolate, they will feel “a good mood and feel good,” and pregnant women will pass this feeling to the unborn child. After the children are born, they will become more pleasant and cheerful.

The copper contained in chocolate plays an important role in the normal development of the embryo. Some chocolates also have lecithin added, and their phosphorus content is beneficial to fetal brain development. Therefore, pregnant women can eat chocolate, but it is appropriate.

Because chocolate contains caffeine, each standard-sized chocolate contains 50 mg of caffeine. If pregnant women take more than 300 milligrams of caffeine daily, it may lead to miscarriage and reduce the weight of the fetus, which may also lead to premature delivery. In addition, excessive consumption of chocolate will make some essential nutrients lack, which will affect the health of pregnant women and is not conducive to the growth and development of the fetus. And some chocolates contain too much sugar and may induce pregnant women to develop gestational diabetes.

Reminder: Before the third trimester, especially before childbirth, expectant mothers who wish to give birth are encouraged to eat more chocolate so that they can quickly replenish their abilities and prepare the best for childbirth. Only with sufficient physical strength can they have the energy to complete the delivery process.
