Really bad dreams!!
The last 3 nights I have woken up in a cold sweat...I have had the same dream that we lost the baby due to the cord being wrapped around her neck!!!! I am 18w today and these dreams are making it soo hard for me to fall asleep!

Re: Really bad dreams!!
That's just horrible. I've been having really crazy dreams (the highlight this week was the battle I had with a skank on a pool table at the mall) but they haven't been too baby related.
Are you reading alot about things that can go wrong with pregnancy? If your constantly absorbing new and terrible scenarios that could happen, that could be what's behind your nightmares. Either way I would suggest watching or reading or doing something totally non baby related before bed and seeing if that helps lead your thoughts elsewhere.
I had my first HORRIBLE pregnancy nightmare last week. At 12 weeks we had our first U/S, saw the baby "dancing" and waving and the heart beating, all looked good. In my dream, the Dr. emailed me to tell me that my baby died because my placenta dried up! And that when we saw the baby at 12 weeks the baby wasn't dancing, it was trying to tell us "Get me out of here, I am dying". How fricking insanely bizarre. I woke up freaking out and started bawling at 2 am.... UHHHH
Luckily I heart the heartbeat for the first time at my appt yesterday. All is well...
