eating at night

Maybe an odd question but one i've always wondered about. If i eat at night, say snacky foods like a bag of crisps or a chocolate bar or some fruit, will it make my baby once its born, too energised and be a terrible sleeper?

I ask this because they say when you eat, the baby inside you kicks about and gets energised, so am i creating him/her to be an active night baby?

I've already laid here and polished off a bag of Jumbo Choc Buttons, and there's no sodding wotsits left Blush

Must go shopping tomorrow. Do you reckon it's possible that baby might come out with a slight orange tinge Grin

I barely ate any crisps or chocolate with my first, i feel slightly guilty for eating it all during this one.

lol, if they come out orange, at least they'll have a career in 'the only way is essex' Shock

Love it Pixie Grin

Nah, don't worry about the baby.
I loved having a Horlicks - made with real milk before I went to bed. Stopped me waking up hungry and helped with indigestion too.
And lots more nutritious than crisps

Always a positive in a negative McPhee Grin

thingamajig, you know, i might actually get some horlicks, i used to love it as a kid.
