Abstract
Midwives and students endeavour to support women and birthing people through the experience of pregnancy and birth, and the transition to life with a newborn baby. When clients are in pain, we offer pain relief. We offer support if breastfeeding challenges arise. We give diet advice to optimise maternal health and wellbeing. When it comes to sleep, another bodily function with major health implications, what support, if any, do midwives provide in the inpatient environment? And does this have any impact on maternal health outcomes? This article provides a narrative review of the literature on midwifery support for healthier sleep in pregnancy.
