I am pregnant right now and I have noticed that my dreams are a lot more vivid. I had one the other night that I gave birth to a girl and right away, she was whisked away from me and I wasn't allowed to go. I talked to a couple friends of mine who have children and they talked about crazy, sometimes gruesome dreams they had. Anyone else noticed this? Do you think I should be worrying about my dream at all? I've had a few prophecy dreams and this one freaks me out! I hope it isn't one!
Prenancy just makes you wacky like that. Your hormones are going wild at this time I'm guessing. Even after prenancy woman get postpartum depression which manifests itself with paranoia. I have heard stories of woman becoming paranoid after pregnancy, like they feared that their baby was being kept away from them or that the doctors were keeping a secret about their baby actually being dead. Even my mother has experienced this. Theres nothing to worry about Or who knows. Maybe its predicting that your baby will be delivered then have to be whisked away because of some unlucky medical condition. But the fact is that you are wacko...yes I guess you can call yourself chemically inbalanced. But don't worry its for all pregnant woman, just ask your girlfriends.
That may just be fear at work. Either learn to ignore it (yeah, right!) or make your home more relaxing and peaceful. So "be careful" what type of music you listen to, the colours of everything in your home, the smells in your home, etc. New Age or classical music may help to soothe your soul, as might bubble baths, fluffy pillows, smooth sheets, etc. Use baby oil on your hands, if only for the smell. Get the really good talcum powder, the one that illicits fond memories. Ask your mom what she did to relax and have beautiful dreams.
my dad used to dream i was dying right after i'd been born. i think this was just a projection of his fears, of every parent's fear. i know a lot of women who've dreamed terrible stuff was happening to their babies/kids, both before and after birth. it's never come true. i would imagine it's just your fear at work, as the other posters have said
yeah, now that u are preganant your sharing life energy with ur baby, which cuases more stress in your body and mind, therefore cuasing your mind to have more vivid dreams... i have had some of the craziest dreams... some of my dreams involve combat, sex, flying, drowning, and my most recent one was i was flying through portals and ending up at my moms appartment complex, then i found another portal, when i jumped into it i found my self sitting in a tree with my mom, when i went to examine the bark of the tree i fell off and landed into another portal, that one teleported me back to my moms appartment complex and this time i ran up into her appartment jumped into her bed and woke up in my bed drenched in sweat.......
