Bad Dreams?

Is anyone else experiencing bad dreams besides me? Actually I had one when I was around 13 weeks along about bleeding badly and the just last night I had one about my baby boy being still born at 5 months.. So I'm wondering if its normal to have bad dreams like that based on my experience or because I am pregnant.. Is anyone else having these?

I'm having bad dreams too, some about bleeding some about someone trying to steal my baby, but i went threw a miscarriage at 3 months with my last pregnancy so i don't know if it is that experience or just pregnancy but you are not alone. I have some kinda nightmare almost every night. Some times more than once a night.

I went through a miscarriage as well at around 5w. So it was really early, but I was still devastated. So, ever since I found out I was pregnant with this little girl I've been having nightmares. Mainly they've been that I have woken up during the night to pee and I was bleeding and having a miscarriage. Once I had a dream I went into labor at 20w and instead of keeping her in the nicu they sent her home with me. I literally put her on a shelf on my bookshelf and would leave her there, maybe I fed her twice. And the whole time in my dream I'm screaming at myself for being so neglectful. I would never do something like that, it's ridiculous. I even had a dream last night that I woke up and was bleeding and passing clots and delivered my baby in the toilet. So, trust me...it's not just you. lol. They feel so real to me and sometimes I have trouble distinguishing the fact that it's not real or didn't happen. It's sad kind of. :( I think it's normal to have bad dreams about your pregnancy because it's our way of dealing with the idea that something can go wrong, but I feel like if we've experienced a loss, it's much worse because we have to deal with the fact that we have had a loss, and could have one again.

yep i am too, but generally not involving the baby...
it's almost like i am watching a weird movie-i know noone in them and don't recognize any places, etc.
it's very strange and very vivid.

I had them with my first pregnancy, not so much yet this time but I still get some. I had dreams about miscarriages, and bad things happening as well...I think it's normal just because we're pregnant.

I've had a few dreams that I've had the baby and I'm out of the hospital and don't have a single thing for the baby.  No diapers, etc.  And in my dream I'm like "We need to get diapers!".  I guess in a way mine are more weird and kinda funny when I wake up because I'm like "We'll have diapers!".
