Really Upset - Bad Dream!

[Lwatkins]

I'm 22 weeks pg and have just woken up in floods of tears and am really shaken up by a horrible dream I just had in which my baby died! My hands won't stop shaking and I can't stop my eyes watering and I seem to be getting a small, spooty rash on my stomach. I'm guessing this is down to worry, I know nothing is wrong with her or me but I'm really shaken up by it!

*spotty
She's kicking at the minute though so have calmed down a bit!

It's completely normal to have awful dreams in pregnancy. Just part of the huge emotional adjustment - hope you feel better after a nice cup of tea!

Poor you, I had a horrific dream a while ago where dd was killed in a car crash, it was so vivid. I had to go & get her out of her cot and slept with her the rest of the night. Pregnancy dreams can be ghastly, though thankfully most of mine are erotic.

sympathies - wierd dreams all aprt and parcel of pregnancy

i dreamt last night that i was having an affair with david beckham

hi - im also covered in spotty rash turns out its a type of eczma due to stress also being prone to nitemares about my baby and losing my other loved ones last night id had a dream that my bump had gone , id been to toilet and after some really gross stuff realised id left my baby in the hospital, went to get her they wouldnt let me have her as they ad given her away - had alot of these with 1st preg too

Tutter - That is truely a terrible dream, you must be traumatised

Lwatkins, horrid dreams leave you feeling shaken for the whole day, listen to some boppy music and try to relax

whqt avin an affair with DB lol funny - i had a dream a few weeks ago that i was sleeping with shaun from eastenders - its a secret but this week it was bradley dont know whats happening to me

weird and vivid dreams come along with pregnancy

but THEY MEAN NOTHING

they are just dreams .. your subconscious just throwing up strange images and your mind putting them into weird 'stories'

ignore them

apart from you Tutter .. you are definitely going to be swept off your feet by a stupid peroxided bloke on helium

twiggg, you want to know the really noteworthy part... he was obsessed with breastfeeding mothers and was asking me loads of questions

snicker

shame twiggg quite fancied the laugh of living with the deadenders for a week or so lol

I dreamt that my mum gave birth to my baby - truly horrific

dnt know bout the reality tho could be nice to have someone else do THAT BIT

you shoudl have heard the name she gave it!

go on

St John Crispian

(apols to anyone out there who has chosen these names for their DS !)

(neither of those two are on our list BTW )

lol - have u chosen names then? whats ur fav?

sort of - but we haven't told anyone
you'll have to wait for my annoucement!!

Thanks everyone, it was just so strange. Cause I was so horrified by the dream yet knew that she was ok, very wierd! I've always wanted my baby and I love her to bits, but loosing her in that dream has really made me realise just HOW much I love and want her if that makes sense. Rash seems to have gone now so guess all is good. I'm used to strange dreams already, especially ahem, some fairly 'erotic' ones, I was just unprepared for this I think!

Ive just had two bad dreams-one where DP left me and was really nasty, and another where myself and thousands of others had to escape a huge building in which a Russian man was letting off a bomb!!! It was so scary...

they do say that you dream in pregnancy 4 a reason - but not wot you actually dream about eg. about the baby - is to make you bond with them eg. about dp/dh leaving or pasing away is because you worry they will be left out wen new arrival appears(same with existing children) dnt know bout knkiy dreams prob to make you fell bettter about yoursef wen actually u feel like a whale! spose it makes sense in a way
