Sleep disorders in pregnancy
Almost every pregnant woman suffers from sleep disorders, which in most cases get worse when entering the third trimester. So what are the causes of this and how can the situation be alleviated in order to maintain a continuous night's sleep? All the answers are waiting for you inside
Nightmares and night terrors - many pregnant women report bad dreams, which appear following the mental and hormonal changes that characterize this period. What can be done: try and lower the level of stress and anxiety as much as possible, perform relaxation exercises and guided imagination that will allow you to relax before bedtime. It is also recommended to disconnect from screens at least an hour before going to bed.
Heartburn - one of the notorious side effects experienced by almost every pregnant woman. As you enter the advanced months of pregnancy, the uterus grows and creates pressure that pushes the stomach up. As a result, the stomach juices rise up the esophagus and create a burning sensation. The multiple burns cause tingling during the night and interfere with normal sleep. What can be done: take anti-heartburn tablets such as Tams or prescription drugs to prevent heartburn, of course after consulting the attending physician.
The growing belly interferes with finding a suitable position for sleeping - with the progress of pregnancy, the growing belly creates a physical disturbance during sleep and prevents the mother from sleeping on her stomach. What can be done: use a special pregnancy pillow that allows you to find a comfortable sleeping position.
Enjoy a continuous night's sleep, exactly as you like!
