Daytime napping and nighttime sleep in pregnant individuals with insomnia disorder.

ABSTRACT:

Study objectives

Examine bidirectional associations between daytime napping and nighttime sleep among pregnant individuals with insomnia disorder.

Methods

We used baseline data from a randomized controlled trial of insomnia treatment during pregnancy (n = 116). Participants in their second or third trimester of pregnancy self-reported daytime napping and nighttime sleep parameters using a sleep diary and wore an Actiwatch-2 during the same 7-day period. Linear regression models, accounting for intraindividual correlation, were used to estimate associations between daytime napping and nighttime sleep parameters (duration, efficiency, quality, awakenings). Models were also stratified by trimester of pregnancy.

Results

Sixty-three percent of participants reported napping
