Whether you’re a new mother, the mother of a teenager, or even the mother of an adult child, struggling to get a good night’s sleep is not uncommon. When you’re sleep-deprived, it’s hard to be all the mom you can and need to be for your new baby or your curious adolescent. These tips can help moms from all walks get better and more restful sleep

Tips to Get Better & More Restful Sleep as a Mom

As a mom, getting quality sleep is crucial for your overall well-being. Establishing a bedtime routine can signal to your body that it's time to wind down. Try incorporating calming activities like reading a book or taking a warm bath before bed.

Creating a comfortable sleep environment is key. Invest in cozy bedding, block out any excess light with curtains, and maintain a cool room temperature for optimal rest.

Limit screen time before bed as the blue light emitted by devices can disrupt your natural sleep-wake cycle. Instead, opt for relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises or gentle yoga stretches to help you unwind.

Prioritize self-care during the day by staying hydrated, eating nutritious meals, and fitting in some physical activity. A healthy lifestyle can promote better sleep quality at night.

Tips for Sleep-Deprived New Moms

As a new mom of an infant, getting enough sleep can feel like a distant dream. The constant feeding, diaper changes, and soothing your little one to sleep can leave you feeling exhausted. However, there are some tips that can help you get better rest even in the midst of caring for your baby.

One helpful tip is to try to nap when your baby naps during the day. Although it might be tempting to use this time to catch up on chores or other tasks, prioritizing rest will help you recharge.

Don't hesitate to ask for help from your partner, family members, or friends. Having support with nighttime feedings or allowing someone else to watch the baby while you take a longer stretch of uninterrupted sleep can make a world of difference in how rested you feel. If you’re sleep-deprived and it’s interfering with your ability to be a mom or function at other levels, people you love and trust will almost definitely come to your aid when asked. 

Wills Chiropractic Can Help You Get a Good Night’s Sleep

Are you a sleep-deprived new mom struggling to get a good night's sleep? Consider the benefits of incorporating massage therapy and chiropractic care into your routine. Both massage and chiropractic care offer natural ways to address underlying issues that may be impacting your ability to fall asleep or stay asleep throughout the night. Taking steps towards self-care through these holistic approaches may just be the key to getting the restful sleep you deserve as a busy mom juggling multiple responsibilities.
