For too many, a sleep analysis is deferred till the being pregnant is over, with the concept pregnancy-related sleep problems will resolve on the finish of the being pregnant. This leaves so many with sleep problems undiagnosed and untreated. Dr. Louise O’Brien has tried to bridge this hole. She works within the Division of Sleep Medication within the Division of Neurology, in addition to the Division of Maternal and Fetal Medication within the Division of Obstetrics and Gynecology on the College of Michigan. She is right here to share her expertise regionally, but additionally globally on the subject of sleep well being throughout being pregnant.
