Pregnancy Insomnia: Causes, Myths, and Midwife Tips That Work


Listen Later

In this episode, Sarah and Charli explore the common and often frustrating experience of insomnia during pregnancy, offering both validation and practical support. They highlight how disrupted sleep is frequently linked to low blood sugar, encouraging nighttime nourishment and more consistent daytime eating. The conversation also covers key supplements like magnesium and iron, gentle herbal remedies, and strategies for managing restless leg syndrome. With a focus on nervous system regulation and sleep hygiene, the episode provides a holistic, midwifery-informed approach to improving rest.
