it is just me that dreams even more than usual when preg? and nightmares too. Im waking up crying sometimes its awful and feel really silly!! im guessing its just hormones

Your not alone.

Ive sailed the titanic down a canel.

Husband ran off with women, about a million times.

Ive played professional football whilst 8 mths pregnant and a massive belly. (hate football and no bump yet)

They are strange dreams!!

I remember having some vivid dreams about the sex of our twins, I was 100% certain we were having boys as a result.
Also had dreams about Mr Z running off with another woman.
Bizarrely, the most lucid was about the girls hair colour, one dream I had more than once was that one would be blonde and one a red head, I even wrote it in my pregnancy diary - sure enough they are a blonde and a red head!

Hi Ladies

I can really sympathise with you all.. I had really violent dreams and I used to wake up really scared.

i keep dreamin that i do something stupid like let go of the pram and it speeds off into the road and im shouting help stop the pram! and people ignore me. horrid hormones

it is just me that dreams even more than usual when preg? and nightmares too. Im waking up crying sometimes its awful and feel really silly!! im guessing its just hormones

I kept having dreams of me giving birth to a massive baby with teeth, so did a couple of friends when preg! Weird.

Ooo Nat, I couldnt possibly tell you about my dreams when I was carrying the kids, shocking... enough to make a lady of the night blush! ;)

funny you should say you dreamt of your babies so did i.
i had loads of dreams where i would picture how my daughter would look.
i was not told i was expecting a girl while pregnant....everyone was convinced i was having a boy because of the way i was carrying. i knew i was having a girl and that she would have a mound of jet black hair, sure enough thats exactly how she popped out. looked exactly how i had dreamt of her!

there was a picture of a dark haired baby in a white snuggley towel in jojo catalogue and i was convinced my 1st would look like him (hub and i both dark hair/eye). He popped out blond and blue eyed?!?!?

I had some really horrible dreams when I was pregnant but so real it was frightening

I dreamt i was on a bike ride and it went dark in this tunnel and i got flung off my a car. it was really weird

ive dreamt my grandad tried to kill me, dogs and then bears all sorts

its weird!!

I have a lot of bizarre dreams anyway, but since being pregnant, though only 13 wks I have had more- some quite kinky (about people I know- lol)- some about babies, some just odd :loopy: I dreamed I was swimming naked with a girl I work with. It was supposed to be erotic but we were in an oversized pont full of weeds & sludge-lol!!

i have been dreamin a lot about my work colleagues, not in the same dream but on different occasions, im sure they think im goin loopy :loopy: :hihi:

Rather than starting a new thread i've brought this back up.

I've been having a few more dreams than usual and last nights was awful! Bear in mind i'm only 5+4, i had a dream the baby died at 5 weeks and i woke up in tears. I've not had many cramps this past day or so and my boobs didn't seem sore at all so i thought it was true! :( I ran to the toilet at 4.45am to do a test and it came back positive, at least it put my mind at ease and i managed to get back to sleep for another hour!

I suffered with terrible nightmares when I was pregnant(must be something to do with hormones) sometimes I was too scared to go back to sleep. and I think because the pregnancy is what you`re thinking about all the time, it does get dragged into your dreams.
Try not to worry too much, I know thats really hard, but also make sure you catch up on your sleep if it keeps you awake:thumbsup:

I agree that you will dream about pregnancy and the baby because it is something which is important in your life at the moment. It doesn't mean anything. When you get a midwife, have a chat to her about your worries etc. I hadn't had a previous miscarriage but I was very worried about this pregnancy and I found chatting with the midwife helped.

If you did miscarry the chances are a pregnancy test would still show you were pregnant for a while as your hormones do not return to normal immediately, so it isn't useful to keep doing tests. I know it's very hard not to worry but the way I tried to look at it was that even though miscarriages are common, there's more chance of not having one then there is of having one (if you get me!). Try not to worry and definitely have a chat to your midwife.

I suffered with night terrors in pregnancy, with each one they've gotten worse, and more sick.

well my dream last night involved binty and d2j!!!:hihi:
we were all at a talent show,like britains got talent and they were doing dancing and cartwheels etc in some very fetching lycra suits!!:hihi:and they won!!:suspect:binty was in lemon,d2j in apple green :banana:
after the show me,OH,and my daughter walked past their stage room door,and they were counting their money,i still wasn't sure if it was them or not because id never met them before,so i walked past and casually said "binty?",she and d2j looked up to which i reply'd "im spotty dog off the forum",expecting them to jump up say "hi"compare bumps etc......but noooo!!
they just raised their eyebrows and said "allright"then continued to count their money!!!:rant:
so i walked off....got straight on my laptop at home and updated my facebook status saying "some people are very rude"!!!!:P
hmmmm....pregnancy and dreams eh?!!!!:loopy:

:hihi: :hihi: Spotty i'm nearly ******* myself laughing!!!

I'm not that rude ya know :P :hihi:

Mine was about someone pinching my car :confused: can't remember the rest!

my dreams are so vivid at the minute!!!
the image of lemon and apple green lycra cartwheeling by will stay with me for a while!!:hihi:

I'm not pregnant as you know but since we got the news I've been kicked, elbowed, punched, slapped and told to move my <censored> pillow :hihi:

Whoops!!! :blush: :hihi:

Before I had my first scan I dreamt 3 times that when I was layed on the bed having the scan the sonographer told me there was no baby there and I'd wasted their time! I remember now sitting in Jessops waiting to go in for my scan convinced there was going to be nothing there!

I also woke up crying my eyes out one night as I dreamt my mum had to get rid of her car because it didn't like babies and she said it was my fault for getting pregnant! I was hysterical when I woke up!
