Nausea & No Appetite?
Nutritionist-Approved Breakfast Menu for Early Pregnancy

For many newly pregnant moms, morning is the hardest time of the day. "Morning Sickness" often makes breakfast feel impossible.

However, breakfast is the most important meal in the first trimester. After a long night, low blood sugar can actually worsen nausea. Newparents has compiled a Malaysian-friendly guide and a 1-week menu to help you eat right.

1. Three "Golden Rules" for Breakfast

  • Separate Solids and Liquids: This is the most effective way to reduce nausea. Eat dry food (toast/crackers) first, then drink water or milk 30 mins later to avoid acid reflux.
  • Prioritize Protein: Protein stabilizes blood sugar. Eggs, Soya Bean milk, and Greek Yogurt are great choices.
  • Avoid Strong Smells & Raw Food: Say goodbye to Sambal and Half-boiled eggs for now to avoid stomach irritation and Salmonella risks.

2. 1-Week Healthy Menu (Malaysian Edition)

Not sure what to eat? Try this light, high-protein schedule:

πŸ“… Monday: Classic Western
  • 2 slices of Wholemeal Bread + Cheese slice
  • 1 Fully Cooked Fried Egg + Low sugar Soya Bean
πŸ“… Tuesday: High Fiber
  • Overnight Oats: Oats + Chia Seeds + Milk
  • Add sliced Banana or Blueberry (Rich in Potassium to prevent cramps)
πŸ“… Wednesday: Chinese Style Comfort
  • Clear Soup Fish Ball Noodle *Request less oil & no MSG
  • Warm Red Date Tea
πŸ“… Thursday: Emergency Mode (Bad Morning Sickness)
  • Eat a few Cream Crackers in bed before getting up.
  • After feeling better: Boiled Egg + Milo (Kosong)
πŸ“… Friday: Detox & Digestion
  • Steamed Sweet Potato or Corn
  • Unsweetened Greek Yogurt + Nuts
πŸ“… Saturday: Indian Light Meal
  • 1 piece of Tosai (Fermented rice batter, easy to digest)
  • Eat with Coconut Chutney (Avoid heavy curry)
πŸ“… Sunday: Brunch Treat
  • Avocado paste on Toast
  • Fresh Orange Juice (Vitamin C helps Iron absorption)

πŸ’‘ Conclusion: Listen to Your Body

Tastes change quickly during early pregnancy. If you can't eat a specific food one day, don't force it. "Listening to your body" is the best way to protect your baby.

Just remember: small meals often, avoid grease, and your baby will grow healthily! πŸ’–
