Nightmares making me paranoid :'(

[iwanttobeamumm]

The week before I found out I was pregnant I kept having dreams that I was having a baby which was weird because me and my partner was having a break from trying but obviously I found out that it was true but now I'm having nightmares about losing my baby and I'm terrified that something is going to go wrong :'( I don't know what to do :'( I'm only nine weeks so there's no way to reassure myself and my scan isn't until the 22nd of December :'( I'm so upset I don't want to go to college or even get out of bed it felt like it was so real:'(

That does sound very vivid and scary, can you call your epu and ask for a scan as you are worried and unable to function because of it?

Not sure you should tell them that the reason is because of a dream (some people won't sympathise..) but if it is getting you down then please phone them and try to get in for reassurance xx

Vivid dreams are really common in pregnancy, unfortunately. I'm sorry you're suffering, it sounds awful. Try and read or watch really happy and lovely things before bed and avoid reading miscarriage threads etc, sometimes it can mess with your head.big hugs x
