Crazy Dreams 💤

Is anyone having wild dreams? Mine are insane! I’m also having dreams about the baby. I have at least 2 a week where I have birth to the baby but I never get to see it or hold it. Or someone misplaces it and we can’t find it. Or I’m very far away and can’t get to it. They are just awful!

What weird dreams are you experiencing?

Same!! I've been waking up in a panic almost every night for the last two weeks, sometimes because of nightmares. I've had many a dream of being murdered or miscarrying, which has been terrifying. My therapist made a good point around these dreams being a symptom, rather than a warning or cause. Of course we're super anxious right now! Of course we have fear of not meeting our little ones! And, that doesn't mean anything is wrong or that our fears are founded. Something I try to remind myself is that all I know right now is that everything is okay, my baby and me are healthy. I've also tried to lay off the true crime podcasts before bed Thanks for sharing, it's nice not to feel alone in this!

I’ve been having a lot of very vivid dreams about work; not being prepared, being late, having an extremely difficult client, looking totally unprofessional, the works. I had one right at the beginning about having a little girl, but nothing else baby-related since then. Last pregnancy there were SO many dreams about not meeting the baby, hemorrhaging during delivery, etc. Kinda preferring the dumb work stress dreams for now, the baby stress dreams can be so upsetting!

I had a dream my husband bought a $4000 laptop after I told him not to. In my dream I screamed at him “that could pay for the deductible for the birth! I am filing for divorce!”

Yeah most of the dreams I remember are about misscarrying, bleeding, or even birthing still born 😔 I wake up nervous all the time.
I previously had a miscarriage so I’m just very nervous about it. Hopefully that eases as time goes on. ❤️

My latest one was about getting hot and heavy with my man. We were getting ready to do a position outside of bed, im full handstand and the door opens. It was a family member but I couldn't tell who. We froze, I asked him in mid handstand who's turn was it to lock the door and then had to wake up to go pee again  in the middle of the night.
They have been W I L D ladies.

My dreams are INSANELY emotional. One dream I had, I was SCREAMING at someone (an good friends ex).and going nuts. Another dream was like a war tragedy where I was being torn from my homeland and I was SOBBING SO HARD I woke up in tears. They are all so intense. I was already a vivid dreamer to begin w but these dreams are off the charts hormonal lol.

My last crazy dream was fist fighting humanoid tigers at a corner store over the last package of nacho chips

Not with this partner but in my younger days yes. 🤣 Lmao. But It was still a very vivid dream.

Nothing scary, but SO many vivid dreams.  So vivid that they wake me up most every night.  I'm 12 weeks now with my first and so far every night is mediocre sleep bc of technicolor dreams.

I started having TERRIFYING dreams, but then I also had a dream that I had a girl! So now I’m convinced I’m having a girl. I don’t find out the gender until august! It’s killin me!

I’ve always had vivid, lifelike dreams (like to the point where sometimes I can’t tell if it was a dream or really happened when I wake up) but they are definitely more frequent and easier to remember since I’ve been pregnant! I had one where I had a miscarriage, and a few where I’ve had a few drinks and then remembered I was pregnant and had that “what am I doing?!!!” moment. I’ve had a couple about my husband being unfaithful or just being a huge jerk, even though neither of those things are in his character. I just hit the second trimester, and it seems like the dreams are just getting crazier. I’m guessing it’s just anxiety about becoming a parent manifesting in my dreams in weird ways. 

Side note…apparently having a dream about the gender of your child can be a pretty accurate predictor! I’ve known 3 people who had those dreams and they all ended up being right!
