Many mothers in maternity units report insufficient sleep and rest, significantly impacting their satisfaction. Lack of a private room is a key factor contributing to poor sleep quality for postnatal women.

Area of Science:

  • Maternal Health
  • Sleep Science
  • Postnatal Care

Context:

  • Hospitals in Norway have adopted 24-hour breastfeeding practices.
  • Previous research indicates sleep disturbances are common in postpartum women.

Purpose:

  • To investigate sleep sufficiency and rest levels in maternity units.
  • To identify factors influencing sleep deprivation and maternal satisfaction.
  • To assess overall satisfaction with the maternity unit stay.

Summary:

  • Nearly half of postnatal women (47%) experienced insufficient sleep and rest.
  • Not having a single room was strongly linked to sleep deprivation (aOR 11.0).
  • Maternal satisfaction was moderate to high, but dissatisfaction correlated with hospital of delivery and sleep issues.
