@@Carine.D This is my third pregnancy and I’ve never felt better. 13-15 hours without food is no challenge. We’ve been doing it for millennia or longer. Baby takes whatever it needs, whenever. Pregnant women also tend to have higher blood sugars, which this helps with. Moreover, your liver detoxes at night which it can’t effectively do when it’s digesting. Doesn’t the baby need attention from the liver, not just the digestive system? I don’t want to discourage anyone, just sharing my experience and thoughts. I definitely ain’t starving!
@@kashbash9645 I have my nutrition certification. I know all that. Going 13h is normal. You go to sleep. Wake up, don’t eat right away, 13-15h passed. Everyone fast from when they go to sleep to when they wake up. Unless you eat in the middle of the night. When we use the term fasting is usually in reference to real fasting like 16/8. Which is not recommended for females bc of our hormones so especially not when pregnant. Most pregnant woman are dehydrated, or have low blood sugar and headaches when going too long without food (like me). But what you are referring to is normal. I eat my last meal at 8pm and don’t eat the next day until 9-10am or longer. I don’t do it on purpose. It’s normal. That’s what human do when they go to sleep.
What’s really worked for me has been not eating past 7pm.
@@kashbash9645 not as a pregnant woman
@@Carine.D
I’m 9 months pregnant and still don’t eat past 7pm.
@@kashbash9645 if it works for you fine. But it’s actually NOT recommended to fast during pregnancy. Bad for you and baby.
