Funded Activity Summary

Sleep problems are common during pregnancy and postpartum periods, and are linked to poor maternal mental health and wellbeing. Cognitive behavioural sleep interventions are effective, but not currently available in routine perinatal care. This study examines the efficacy of an innovative evidence-based non-pharmacological intervention for better sleep and wellbeing, with high potential for sustainable integration with routine perinatal care.
