anyone else having bad dreams?
Growing up I went through a phase trying to get more independence from my parents. We had some arguments but nothing like my dreams last night.
I had a dream last night where I was being a complete brat to my parents. I was about 16 and I was upset because they wouldn't let me borrow the car, I tried to steal the car, and when I couldn't I slashed their tires. Both of my parents were angry and histerical and so was I.
I was never this bad at all. But all day, I keep replaying my dream in my head. I cant help but wonder if that is what my LO will be like and my dream is just a premonition.
I am so not ready for this.

Re: anyone else having bad dreams?
Ok when you said bad dreams I thought you meant like nightmares.
I've had a dream about someone trying to steal my baby in the hospital. I've had a dream that someone kidnapped my 20 month old right out from under my DH and mother's nose! I've had a dream that my DH's crazy ex gf was jealous of us and kidnapped me and cut my baby out of me and somehow I survived and ended up kicking her ass and getting my baby back.
Is it weird that a lot of my bad dreams have to do with kidnapping....I think maybe I watch too much Nancy Grace?
Neither of you are having weird or out of the ordinary dreams, and they certainly aren't premonitions, so I wouldn't worry about that. It's just anxiety, I bet almost everyone on this board has had bad dreams too. In the beginning of my pregnancy I had dreams about excessive (and I do mean excessive) bleeding, but I'm not worried about miscarrying anymore so they have stopped. A few nights ago I dreampt that DH and I left the baby alone in the crib in the livingroom without a monitor and that I had forgotten to feed him all night, and then my cats decided to sleep with him and smothered him. I think these dreams manifested from finding my kitten asleep in the baby's bouncer that I had just put together, I am afraid that since our kitten loves it she will try to get in there with the baby.
I think the bad dreams are just part of pregnancy, I wouldn't dwell over them.
I have been having nightmares too...but for some reason this one bothered me more.
I was not that horrible growing up, but for some reason this really jilted me.
Dreams about kidnapping, or LO suffocating would really bother me. Perhaps it's due to being anxious/emotional right now.
