So...interesting pg symptom

UMichGirl

I am only 5 weeks, but have woken up 3 times now in the past week from what I've seen referred to as a "sleepgasm". It freaks me out because I was told absolutely NO sex and NO orgasm until given the all-clear which I guess usually happens around the end of 1st tri. Um...can't exactly control this! Last night I woke up (sorry if tmi) in the middle and I remember thinking "no stop!" and OW the cramping...freaked me out even more. So now I'm all worried I'm going to cause harm and there's absolutely nothing I can do about it! 

Anyone else experience this?

You can't really do anything about it when it happens in your sleep.  I wouldn't worry about it.  Happened to me when I was on pelvic rest and everything is fine.

I had those dreams too. And was on pelvic rest until 3 weeks ago. It always worried me but now baby is overdue so obviously it was fine.

I had those dreams while I was on pelvic rest, too. They really freaked me out, but there's nothing you can do about it! Funnily enough, as soon as I was off pelvic rest, they stopped happening!

I'm glad to know others have experienced this early on.  I STILL feel crampy and this happened like four hours ago!  Ugh, the things I worry about!  lol...

I've had 2or 3 nights like this and while I feel like I've come pretty close, not sure its gone all the way. I think you are probably ok

its pretty normal esp first tri with all the increased blood flow!  -- I wasnt on pelvic rest and we had a lot of sex in the first tri!

oh god - YES!  with my son.  not with this pregnancy.  but the sleeping Os would attack me all the time and night and guess what??  it always caused MAJOR cramping. i would wake my husband up screaming in pain.  i read in one of my pg books that this is normal...i mean, it was actually in the book so it has to be right?

embarrassingly at the time(bc i was 6 weeks and was just getting released) i told my RE about it.  even he seemed at a loss for words but told me not to worry...

Yup... still having those dreams too.  I've probably had about 5 my entire pregnancy, maybe more.  Not a ton, but enough to remember and take notice.  And I was well into second trimester until I had stopped getting awful cramps/contractions after orgasms.  I wouldn't worry about it, and try to enjoy it I guess ;-)

I got them a ton very early on. they kind of stopped once I hit 7 or so weeks. You really can't do anything about it, and I doubt it would cause any issues!

"O"MG! YES! I thought this was so weird because it has NEVER happened until now! I have been having the most crazy sexual dreams that cause O's that give me cramps! My husband thinks it's hilarious! I'm only 4.5 weeks and I think I've had 3 already! I was worried too because I am on pelvic rest as well! So funny!
