Ridiculous nightmares

My dad and I never got along, he wasn't a good man or father. Ever. His birthday is the 27th of this month. And he died November 4th of last year. Every night for weeks I've been having nightmares that my son is going to be born on one of those days. And In the dreams my son looks like my dads side of the family. I hate it, my husband try's to joke saying my son will be my dad resurrected. My brothers who adored my dad made comments saying how sweet it would be for him to be born on my dads birthday too. But it seriously stresses me out so damn bad that I get nauseous. I will be super glueing my legs closed for both of those days!!!

  • Baby will come when he wants too. I promise it won't even matter if it's a holiday the day your sons born will only ever mean that too you again the past will stay on the past. New years day for me is never new years anymore it's always my oldest birthday. And January 16 is always going to be my other sons birthday never my cousins or Martin Luther kings birthday anymore. Ever year that that day comes around all you'll think about is how you can't believe there going turning x age and it was that long ago that he was born.

  • Unfortunately that baby will come when it wants to. Agree with PP that past stays in the past.

    However I don't see the harm in super gluing those legs together for those days if it makes ya feel better! ;)
  • I understand this my dad wasn't the best Dad we also never got along. He wasn't abusive just an stubborn ass. He rarely was there when we needed him even though we lived in same house. Anyways he passed away 12 years ago. When I meet my DH I found out his birthday is the same day as the day my dad passed away. Which makes the day easier. Oddly because I focus on the birthday and that's what I think about not his death. I hope my son isn't like him because I want him to be involved in his children's life's like my DH is. Truthfully he could turn out just like him. My DH'S little brother is turning out just like his grandfather who he looks identical to. Which is ironic because my SMIL refused to have kids till after he had passed because she couldn't stand him. So I can really see what your going through. All you can do is do your best to raise him. As for sharing the birthday make it about the baby not your father it will help.
