Sleeping problems during pregnancy? Read on to know the symptoms and ways you can help alleviate the problem

 

Pregnancy brings many changes in a woman’s body, with these changes come several concerns, one being sleeping problems during pregnancy.  One of the major reasons why pregnant women are not able to get a good night’s sleep is because the growing fetus causes the uterus to expand, generating a lot of pressure inside the body. It becomes extremely hard for a woman to find the right position to relax and sleep as her baby grows inside her.

All other symptoms of pregnancy like increased urge to urinate, breathlessness due to increased heart rate, cramps in the legs and the abdomen, backache, nausea, and heartburn can also cause you to have trouble sleeping. Feeling anxious about your baby’s health and your impending labor can keep you awake at night too.

If you have a habit of sleeping straight on your back or flat on your stomach, it might take you some days to find the right position for yourself. Don’t worry about being unable to sleep, though. It’s part and parcel of pregnancy and can even serve as practice for more late nights once your baby is out.
