dreams

[starmum]

Since I found out I'm pregnant I have dreamed twice now that I have lost the baby and I wake up thinking it's true and then start to feel negative that I am bound to have another mc.
Last night I dreamed I was bleeding heavily
When I wake it takes ages to convince myself it was only a dream.
I have had dreams also that I am being scanned and I hear a loud heartbeat.
It just goes to show how much the worry takes you over to the point that you're dreaming about it.

Does anyone else get this and does it affect you the same? xx

hey hun, i have the exact same problem, ive had some horrific dreams and wake up thinking it has been real...i think its just all our subconscious worries letting go at night. They are horrible hun but (and dont laugh coz this is soooooooooo sad) i went through a phase of watching a disney film in bed beofre going to sleep...dunno how or why it worked but when i did this i didnt have nightmares....i hope they ease up soon hun xx

I have had them throughout the pregnancy, the only difference is that now I am farther along I have horrific nightmares about having a stillbirth. I have no advice about how to help them but I can say that you are not alone.

i totally had a dream like that last night: dreamt that i started bleeding and we went for a scan, i couldnt see baby's heartbeat but the doctor said he could see it so we went away not really knowing what to think. waking up and realising it was a dream was awesome!

I've had horrible dreams too. I used to dream that i'd woken up covered in blood and now like Omi, i've had dreams about still birth. I don't know that there's anything I can say to make you feel any better, maybe it is just all of the worries we feel every day coming together when we go to sleep. Sending hugs

I do the same thing. I think having a loss already is always in the back of our minds somewhere and unfortunately it will rear its head on occasion. I have had mixed dreams both good and bad ones. I'm trying to focus on the good ones and leave the bad ones. I'm sure its normal for anyone in our situation.

I did dream once in early preg when I was bleeding that I had lost bubs, it was so vivid and horrible. I constantly thought I was losing bubs so it played heavily on my mind, they do say when you think about something a lot you tend to dream about it too.

Oh hun, it's really horrible - I know!
Everytime this happens I am in the most foul mood for the following day, really jumpy and moody. It really sucks!

im having a scan today and dreamt that I lost the baby at the hospital, your mind is a powerful thing and our fears come out in dreams too. Now im even more scared and negative than I was before
