2nd trimester nightmares?

Emily

Hey everyone!💖

So I am 22 weeks pregnant with my second baby, and every night this week and some of last week, I’ve had very vivid, terrible nightmares. I’m always pregnant in them, but the nightmares are not related to my pregnancy and are SUPER unrealistic. Very unpleasant though. Did anyone else experience this? I didn’t have this with my first baby, and it bugs me so much because I’m not someone who usually dreams (or at least I never remember my dreams) so this is really not normal for me.

I’m 22 weeks too and I’ve been having sleep paralysis, horrifying nightmares and false awakenings. Along with those nightmares, usually creepy supernatural ones I dream I lose my baby. I have bad anxiety too which is most likely related. I’m constantly tired due to barely sleeping and when I do sleep I don’t feel rested due to the nightmares. Apparently it’s really common.

Woke up crying at least once during this time! I have always been a very vivid dreamer but these ones were intense. Hoping you get some rest this weekend!

Yes I woke up crying every time but they stopped around week 23. The last one broke my heart I was scared to touch my stomach for a couple days
