What should I do if I have insomnia and frequent dreams after giving birth?

Patient's question:

Six months postpartum. Difficulty falling asleep, constant dreaming, needing to use the restroom every time I drink water, unable to sleep with any movement, getting woken up by the baby, then becoming very irritable, and then having trouble falling asleep after feeding. Seeking help from a doctor...

Doctor's answer:

Hello, it is likely a neural headache. You can have a brain CT scan to rule out any lesions in the brain. Take Cinnarizine and Naproxen orally, relax your mood, reduce stress, get adequate rest, and avoid stimulating foods. It will gradually improve. Wishing you good health. Generally, doctors recommend that patients with postpartum consultation risks should maintain a balanced diet and avoid spicy, stimulating, and cold foods. Additionally, patients should create an environment that promotes emotional stability and stress relief. Wishing the patient a healthy delivery.
