Can't sleep at night in the third trimester?

summary

Many pregnant mothers who sleep well in the first trimester have difficulty in finding a comfortable position and falling asleep in the third trimester due to the gradual uplift of their abdomen; In addition, due to the increased burden of pregnant mother's kidney, it is necessary to filter 30% - 50% more blood and urine than before pregnancy. Frequent going to the toilet is also one of the reasons why it is difficult for pregnant mother to fall asleep. How can we easily fall asleep in late pregnancy? Let's share my experience with you.

Can't sleep at night in the third trimester?

1. Try to avoid drinking caffeinated and carbonated beverages, such as soda, coffee and tea. If you really want to drink it, be sure to drink it in the morning or after a nap in the afternoon. 2. Don't drink too much water or soup before going to bed. Eat more breakfast and lunch and eat less supper. This diet is good for sleep.

3. Develop regular sleep habits, sleep at the same time at night, get up at the same time in the morning. Don't read or watch TV in bed. In addition to sleep and rest in bed, the rest of the time try not to miss the bed.

4. Don't do strenuous exercise before going to bed. You can relax your nerves, such as taking a 15 minute warm bath and drinking a hot, decaffeinated drink (such as milk with honey). 5. If a cramp in your leg causes you to wake up from sleep, push your foot against the wall or get out of bed for a while. This will help relieve the cramp. In addition, we should ensure that there is enough calcium in the diet.
