I've been having trouble sleeping lately, and it's making me very tired. I'm wondering if it's okay to take sleeping pills to get some rest while I'm pregnant.
Dear, taking sleeping pills without a doctor's advice is not safe at all during pregnancy. Try to follow a proper sleep routine, avoid screens at night, and definitely consult your doctor.
Honestly, I'm struggling so much with sleep right now in my second trimester. But I am too scared to take anything. Has anyone's gynac actually prescribed safe pills for insomnia?
Ghar pe mummy and saas strictly forbid taking any such tablets during these months. They suggest having warm milk with badam before bed, but if u are really struggling, please ask your doctor.
Pregnancy sleep can be so tough, I totally feel u! But it's best to avoid pills for the baby's safety, so try light walking or music instead. Talk to your gynac for safe solutions.
Please do not self-medicate with sleeping pills at all. I asked my senior consultant at the hospital about this, and they strictly told me to avoid such medications unless they specifically prescribe it.
