Treating insomnia during pregnancy improves bedtime procrastination, rumination, anxiety, and positive affect: a randomized controlled trial of cognitive-behavioral and mindfulness-based therapies for prenatal insomnia
Overview
This secondary analysis of a randomized controlled trial examines whether Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBTI) and Perinatal Understanding of Mindful Awareness for Sleep (PUMAS) improve outcomes beyond sleep quality in pregnant women with clinical insomnia. The study reports that both interventions reduced bedtime procrastination and anxiety while enhancing positive affect, whereas PUMAS specifically decreased insomnia-focused rumination compared to sleep hygiene education. The resource is intended for researchers and clinicians interested in the broader psychological benefits of prenatal insomnia treatments.
