7 Top Tips for Getting Better Sleep During Pregnancy with go-to Maternity Sleepwear Experts, Dear Mumma
As with any aspect of pregnancy, it's crucial to consult healthcare providers for personalised advice. They can provide tailored recommendations and address specific concerns related to sleep and morning sickness.
- Create a Relaxing Bedtime Routine: Wind down with calming activities, such as reading, gentle stretching or massage with sleep encouraging products such as Pure Mama Magnesium Balm, to signal to your body that it's time to prepare for sleep.
- Invest in a Comfortable Mattress and Pillows: Pregnancy can bring physical discomfort. Ensure your sleep environment is conducive to rest by investing in a supportive mattress and pillows. Growbright has an extensive range of pillows and wedges with options to suit most tummies.
- Limit Caffeine Intake: Reduce or eliminate caffeine in the hours leading up to bedtime to minimise disruptions to your sleep.
- Stay Active, but Not Too Late: Regular, gentle exercise during pregnancy can promote better sleep. However, try to complete any physical activity well before bedtime to avoid increased energy levels interfering with sleep.
- Manage Stress with Relaxation Techniques: Practice relaxation techniques such as deep breathing, meditation, or prenatal yoga to manage stress and promote a calm state of mind before bedtime.
- Stay Hydrated, But Mind the Timing: Hydration is crucial during pregnancy, but try to limit fluid intake close to bedtime to minimise disruptions from bathroom visits.
- Optimise Your Sleep Environment: Ensure your bedroom is cool, dark, and quiet. Consider using blackout curtains such as the Tommy Tommee Tippee Sleeptight Portable Blackout Blind from The Sleepstore, a white noise machine such as Yogasleep Hushh Continuous White Noise Machine, and comfortable sleepwear such as Dear Mumma Maternity Pyjamas to create an ideal sleep environment.
