The aim of this study is to assess an online mindfulness intervention for pregnant women (6 weeks) for the treatment of insomnia and prevention of depression relapse in pregnancy. This mindfulness intervention will also be compared with an online intervention (6 weeks) consisting only of education about insomnia in pregnancy. The principal hypothesis is that the mindfulness intervention will be more effective than the education-only intervention.
The aim of this study is to assess an online mindfulness intervention for pregnant women (6 weeks) for the treatment of insomnia and prevention of depression relapse in pregnancy.
There will be two groups:
Each group will be composed of 25 participants with a total sample of 50. The principal hypothesis is that the mindfulness intervention will be more effective than sleep education in the improvement of sleep and depression symptoms during pregnancy.
The differences between the intervention and control group will be analyzed. The acceptability and usability of online content will also be assessed.

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) | Self-rating of overall sleep quality and disturbances using 7 sleep components.

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Sleep efficiency | Sleep efficiency will be calculated from total sleep time divided by time in bed, as measured by 8 days of wrist actigraphy and sleep diaries. Increased sleep efficiency is a better outcome. | Enrollment to intervention completion (6 weeks) |
| Total wake time |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| PROMIS Self-Efficacy for Managing Emotions -- Short Form | A four-item self-report questionnaire for measuring confidence in handling emotions.

| Sleep Education | Behavioral | Six-week online program that provides education on sleep during pregnancy. |
|
Total wake time will include all time spent in bed awake, measured in minutes. This will be measured by actigraphy and sleep diaries, and will be calculated as the sum of sleep onset latency (time from getting into bed to falling asleep) and wake after sleep onset (time awake after sleep onset). Decreased total wake time is a better outcome. |
| Enrollment to intervention completion (6 weeks) |
| Total sleep time | Total sleep time is the sum of all time spent asleep, measured in minutes. This will be measured by actigraphy and sleep diaries, and calculated as the difference between time in bed and total wake time. Increased total sleep time is a better outcome. | Enrollment to intervention completion (6 weeks) |
| Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Sleep Disturbance Short Form | A six-item self-report questionnaire that measures perception of the quality of sleep over the past seven days.
