So many pregnant mums tell me the same thing: “I’m exhausted… but I just can’t sleep.”
If that sounds familiar, you’re definitely not alone. Poor sleep during pregnancy is incredibly common – and incredibly frustrating.
Rising progesterone can make you feel drowsy in the day but restless at night.
As your baby grows, pressure on your bladder leads to endless trips to the toilet. Back pain, pelvic discomfort, and hip pressure make it hard to get comfortable, and just when you’re ready to drift off, your little one might decide it’s time to party with kicks and rolls.
Add in a busy mind full of thoughts about birth, baby prep, and the mental load of it all, and it’s no wonder sleep can feel impossible.
The good news is there are gentle, natural ways to support better rest. Chiropractic care during pregnancy can help ease tension in your pelvis and back, improve posture as your body changes, and support your nervous system so it’s easier to relax.
When your body feels more aligned and comfortable, it’s often much easier to settle in and enjoy deeper, more restorative sleep.
If you’re finding yourself wide awake at night and drained during the day, know this – you’re not alone, and you don’t have to struggle through it.
I’d love to help you feel more comfortable and rested – send me a message and let’s get you booked in.
