Re: Nightmares during pregnancy
Hi
I too had some nightmares and some quite gruesome dreams in my second pregnancy.. I vividly remember one dream i had where a giant circular saw went right thru my car that i was driving in, and cut my daughter in half!!!!
My understanding of dreams, is that they are repressed feelings, and usually dramatically symbolic of the way you are feeling about your life at the time of the dream.. for eg.. i remember during the time that i had the dream that i had, I was mostly worried about sharing myself between 2 children..hence why Tay was cut in half in the dream i guess .. both scary and unsettling. But i think that when you vent any feelings that are worrying you, either by writing your fears down or telling a trusting friend or partner.. you release yourself somewhat from whatever stresses might cause unsettling nightmares.
Not really sure as to how much truth is in these things, it could be coincidence and I agree that high hormone levels most probably have more to do with how you are sleeping,,,Hopefully you get a good nights sleep soon.
Cheers from Mel xx
