AI simplified
Abstract
Food consumption closer to sleep at night is associated with higher total daily caloric intake in the first and second trimesters.
- Longer intervals between waking up and the first meal are linked to a greater percentage of calories consumed at dinner and the last meal during the first and second trimesters.
- Higher total daily caloric intake is observed when the last meal is consumed closer to bedtime, particularly in the first and second trimesters.
- Taking longer to eat the first meal after waking up may lead to increased caloric intake later in the day.
- Longer time intervals between the last meal and sleep are associated with shorter sleep duration, especially in early and mid-pregnancy.
