I noticed something strange/psychological health

Mary • five year married with an incredible husband who loves and supports me, our 4yo child, and our many furry children.

every time Im trying to get pregnant or begin charting my periods and temps again, i notice my dreams begin to mirror my hopes or fears. i just had surgery on the 23rd to remove scar tissue and a birth control implant, and i have been charting since then. every night i have dreams about being pregnant, or getting positive tests, or prepping for the baby... it is disconcerting and upsetting when i awaken and realize Im still just charting.

on the flip side, when it has been a long time between periods and then i start bleeding again, i always have awful tramatic dreams about miscarrying again, my husband leaving me, and incredibly painful stomach cramps leaving me winded and tired the next day.

does anyone else struggle with this aspect of family planning?
