Anybody Else Have Nightmares About Being Pregnant?

So I've been freaking exhausted lately. Last night, I dreamed I was 10 weeks pregnant at an ultrasound where they told me the baby wasn't doing well and it was my fault. I got in the car and was desperate to get to my mom to tell her something was wrong with the baby. (My mom and I are super close.)
I woke up trying to catch my breath. We've been trying for 8 months, and I know it can take couples a year. And I went to my doctor before hand for the green light to start trying. It was incredibly realistic. 
And it just rattled me.

I think dreams are our minds' way of processing the things most pressing on our conscious selves. You've been trying for a while and, no doubt, have had a fair amount of stress and disappointment so far.  Would you say you are fairly stressed about things and all the what ifs?  Be easy on yourself.  This dream is in no way indicative or predictive of what will be. I have recurring dreams about my mother, who died eight years ago after an illness. These are very painful and make me feel terrible, like I let her down.  But then I am thankful that I got to see her and remember all the good. Dreams are powerful but they are not truth. Baby dust!!!!

I had a dream last night that I was pregnant with quadruplets and the doctors had to do an emergency c-section and 1 died as soon as it was born and another wasn't doing too well, it needed a blood transfusion but the dr refused to give it because "she couldn't be bothered to look for the right blood" and so it died as well. Woke up terrified. I'm only 8 weeks pregnant lol.
