Yet again wide awake after horrible dreams. Not difficult to work out - worried about pregnancy so I have very vivid dreams were terrible things happen to DS and I can't save him. They're so awful. Have just been to tuck DS in after toilet trip so at least i know he's fine.
I hate the night-time anxiety.

one just woke me up. Am 37 weeks and haven't had one for about a month, after months of one at 3am every day. No way I can go back to sleep, but I'm exhausted! They're so horrid, hope they pass for you!

Here as well! Pregnant with dc2 and just woke up flailing around because I dreamt that dd1 had jumped down the stairs thinking I was there to catch her and I wasn't. I had really vivid dreams when pregnant before and they lasted about 3 months after dd was born.

Sometimes they're nice dreams though.... I had quite an interesting one involving Bruce Willis the other night Wink

I forgot about dreams after DS was born. I used to wake up searching all through the bed for him while he was peacefully asleep in his moses basket.

Maybe I'll try thinking nice Bruce Willis thoughts at bedtime tonight and see where that gets me!

Fingers crossed for a good sleep for all tomorrow.

Im only in my first trimester and practically having pregnancy nightmares everynight. I wake up feeling pure terror. Hoping they will stop soon :-(

Yep im suffering to. Been having the most vivid/stressed out dreams for few wees and im not even that worried about being pg (dc3). I wake up all tense and often have headaches induced by the tension.
I guess subconsiously i might be more stressed than i realise but hormones are meant to play a big role in pg nightmares.
Another 10 weeks of these to look forward as well!
Lets hope it passes soon after our bubs arrive.
