Title: Sleep and Mood During Pregnancy and the Postpartum Period. Author: Bei B, Coo S, Trinder J. Journal: Sleep Med Clin; 2015 Mar; 10(1):25-33. PubMed ID: 26055670. Abstract: During the perinatal period, compromises in sleep duration and quality are commonly reported by women and confirmed by objective measurements of sleep.
