strange dream - got to tell someone!

I usually have very bizzare dreams but the one I had on Saturday night was just horrible.

It started with me dreaming that I was having a poo and when I looked down I had given birth! I quickly scooped the baby up out of the pan and started to rub it's back (it was really small, about 6 inches) then it started crying - the cord hadn't been cut or anything. I just kept shouting to call an ambulance although I knew there was no-one else there. Next time I looked into the pan there was blood everywhere and I started shouting for the ambulance again. Next thing I know I'm driving round the local countryside with dh in a postman pat van trying to find the baby and everyone kept saying things like "I saw it up at the farm house" etc. I think I found it in the end but can't be sure.

When I remembered this dream last night I felt such an increadible sense of loss and hollowness and couldn't help having a little cry - to which dh very kindly commented "it's only a dream, stop being so stupid". Last time I had this dream was over 2 years ago before we were ttc dd and then it always stopped when I picked the baby up out of the toilet.

Sorry for waffling but I had to get it out of my system.

I don't really know what to say, but that sounds really horrible ! Just keep thinking it was only a dream!

I hope I'm not going to be flamed for this, but....seems to me that the idea of another baby is around, maybe subconsciously, and perhaps a little stronger when you have your period? I think you should give a little time to trying to validate such a very real emotion which has stayed with you after the dream: that's important, I feel. Hugs
