Snack after dinner?

Hey everyone. Should I be having something to eat btw my dinner and by the time I go to sleep? We usually have dinner around 8pm but don't sleep till 12 or later and then breakfast around 8 if I have work or 11 am if I don't ( Cuz I usually like to tidy up the room before going down to get breakfast)  I only work a couple of times a week. So that's 12-16 hrs with out food. Is that ok? Should I snack before going to bed? If yes then what should I eat that won't give me gas?

I eat breakfast then eat whatever throughout the day until dinner when my husband gets home. I think I have been eating too much at dinner time because it's been making me feel that sick overly full feeling at half the portion I used to have. Then around 10 I'm hungry again and snacking on nuts or pick foods like that. I can't go to bed hungry because it will actually wake me up. Been keeping a pack of fruit snacks next to the bed at night, sometimes I wake up around 6am to pee and can't go back to sleep because I'm hungry.
