Recurrent dreams of miscarriage

Anyone having these? They are so disheartening and I wake up in a semi panic until I remind myself it was a dream. I have a Dr appt this morning and will get an ultrasound. Last night I dreamt that my Dr did the ultrasound and found that the baby had Stopped growing at 6 weeks (I'm 9 weeks) and it was pretty depressing and graphic (seeing baby on US in mangled way). Anyway, I'm headed to the Dr in a bit and now am freaked out :-(. Is anyone having dreams like this?

It sounds like you're quite stressed out so you're probably not enjoying the present moment much if you're worrying all the time. I was a bit like that in the first trimester but am happier now that things are moving on. I hope the anxiety passes for you. Hormones can make you anxious too so perhaps it is partly hormones. I'd recommend de-stressing with some treatments like acupuncture, massage or meditation so that you can begin to enjoy the pregnancy.

I was just reading someone's blog about subchrionic bleeds ad the majority of the blood re absorbed in to mum and babies were fine. And the other half bleed but it didn't dislodge baby so fingers crossed you should be fine. I know the feeling I'm almost seventeen weeks and I still haven't really told slot of people other than family as I'm convinced something is going to go wrong. I miss carried twice now once just two weeks before becoming pregnant again. I heard the heartbeat yesterday and have a scan booked for today but I'm still expecting to go and it not be moving and such.

Thanks for responding ladies. No I haven't miscarried before, this is my first baby. I have had spotting for the past month, super super light and only when I wipe and about 3 instances where it was red spotting. Because of that I've been told there's only 50/50 chance for the pregnancy which has made me an anxious mess. Not even really allowing myself to be excited for the pregnancy because I'm so anxious every day. The first day I had red spotting was about 3 weeks ago and I went to the ER. Was 6+1 and they were able to pick up and see the heart beat but it was 109 HR and I was told is considered slow. Went to my OB a week later and was 7+2 and she was able to pick up and listen to it. She didn't tell me the rate but it was definitely faster and she said it sounded perfect. Went yesterday, morning after the last nightmare, and this was almost 2 weeks past my last appointment. Did an ultrasound and I measured 9 weeks and she was able to pick up and listen to the heart beat which also sounded fast and strong. She said that was a good sign but honestly wasn't all that reassuring and said because of the bleed I'm high risk. Now I won't see her for a month and I'm dreading this month. The spotting is not a lot. I know this may be TMI but I've been spotting for 1 month and literally if I left the same pad on for an entire month I would not come close to filling it, it is that faint. The ER said I had a small subchorionic bleed which is what makes it a 50/50 chance to see if it clears or interferes with the pregnancy. Ugh! It just ***** because the dreams are graphic and I feel horrible and helpless after.

I have dreams where I start to bleed really heavily then I wake up and I'm desperately searching for blood in my bed. I don't have them every night maybe twice a week. Have you miss carried before?  I have been convinced for a few days that something horrible had happened but I felt a little movement earlier for the first time in a few days. That calmed me a little I have an appointment with the midwife tomorrow and also I booked a private scan for the day after.
