Just listen to some soothing prayers or spiritual chants before sleeping to calm your mind. Trust that everything is in God's hands, take a deep breath, and let your body rest peacefully.

Actually, the summer heat makes it even worse, yaar. I just keep the AC at a comfortable temp, wear super loose cotton nighties, and use a big pregnancy pillow to support my back. It works like magic.

Please don't worry, your body is working hard to grow a baby. Just try to take small naps during the daytime if you are unable to sleep well at night.

No need to buy expensive pillows, just use your regular house pillows. Put one under your head, one between your knees, and a small cushion under your belly for support. Also, avoid drinking too much water right before sleeping to save trips to the loo.

Sleeping on your left side with a soft pillow between your knees really helps a lot.

Oh god, I struggle with this every single night, I keep tossing and turning! Has anyone tried drinking warm milk before sleeping, does it actually help with the restlessness?

Try to maintain a fixed sleep schedule and cut down on screens at least an hour before bed, as blue light delays sleep hormones. If you are having severe leg cramps that wake you up, ask your doctor if u need calcium or magnesium supplements.
