[elisesmum]

i feel like a 5 year old right now, had the most awful nightmare that i woke up nearly in tears it was apart this person who was playing games with me life and placing bombs in and around my house and the first one went off and ruined everything, it just got worse from there and started playing mind games by where ever i went some how he would follow and place bombs so people could kill me taking over peoples phones making it into a game of who could kill me first and now cant get back to sleep because im actually terrified of having another, they are so realistic i think thats what scares me the most, they feel real it has woke me up feeling very anxious now every noise i hear i think its a bloody burgular will be glad to see the back of this symptom when i am no longer pregnant xx

I'm one of those people that gets regular nightmares as standard. When I'm pregnant, it turns into night terrors. I have woken up in tears, paranoid, emotionally distraught and not wanting to go back to sleep several times in this pregnancy. I think it does help if you talk about your dream, because usually it sounds so far fetched that it knocks some sense of reality into you when you start to speak. I just have a problem getting someone to listen to me! Lol.

I'm glad I'm not the only one! I used to get nightmares before I was pregnant, but never as bad as this. I haven't had any for a few days now, but I kept having periods of a couple of weeks at a time where I had them pretty much every night and woke up between 4am and 5am each time - so not only do I have the horror of the nightmare to deal with, but also the fact that I end up completely exhausted!

I really hope they don't come back any time soon, we all need our

Me too, before being pregnant I would hardly ever dream now its a nightmare every night.
Last night I dreamt that I had cancer and had to have chemo and then spent most of the night awake worrying if baby is ok

I had a dream last night that my brother got shot at war (he is in the army)
it felt so real and really upset me when i woke up.
Also had a dream the other day that my dad got cancer. god forbid this ever happens.
Its so horrible :'( never have my dreams felt so real before! X
