Just wondering if anyone else suffered or suffers from these?
I got them really bad till about 20 weeks (about loosing baby, family dying, boys being kidnapped etc) then nothing! now last night I was woken 3 times by the same vivid dream (I went into preterm labour but the hospital didn't believe me till bubs was actually here!) which this morning had me bawling my eyes out to hubby Ive been told I should talk to someone about them especially the one last night, but I'm not sure. I had a pretty crappy appointment with the OB on Monday so think it's all related but what would you do or suggest? Im a bit worried about sleeping tonight

I've been getting vivid dreams too, mine is usually along the lines of trying to feed the baby and I have no milk, the baby is screaming because she's so hungry, in the dream I make a bottle up, but it's too hot so I leave it to cool while trying to comfort the baby to stop her crying so she won't wake my partner, when the bottle cools down I go to grab the bottle and feed her only to find the bottle has vanished and I'm left with a screaming starving baby, at this stage I usually wake up in a sweat. I've told my MW about the dreams and she said it's quite common for mums to be to have vivid dreams. -------------

these first started as soon as I knew I was pregnant!
these ones are based around having another premature baby. and are very scary! |

Alot of it is probably your subconcious coming into play on things/thoughts you have locked away in there somewhere. I think although we try not to be we can't help but stress about the little life inside of us...............one thing I am learning as I go through pregnancy is that it is not easy and there are risks all the time at all stages and I guess maybe its these stresses that come out in our dreams................who knows..........I'm certainly no expert but I hope the bad dreams stop soon for you ------------- http://lilypie.com">

I had some really vivid ones in early pregnancy but were generally more along the lines of action movies (shoot-ups etc). But the other night I had a scary one about bleeding after the birth. There were a couple of OB ladies in the dream too lol. -------------
