Patient's question:
My wife is 35 years old and is pregnant with her second child. Recently, she has been having trouble sleeping at night, tossing and turning, and doesn't know what to do. Please ask: How to deal with insomnia during pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
During pregnancy, if you suffer from neurasthenia, you can consume some sleep-promoting foods. For example, you can eat lotus seeds, longan fruit, and lily bulb cooked with millet porridge, all of which have a sleep-promoting effect. In addition, when taking a nap in the evening, you can soak your feet in hot water to relieve fatigue from the day. Before taking a nap, you can drink a cup of milk, listen to soothing and gentle music, and relax your mind, which helps calm the spirit and aid sleep.
