Nightmares

I've been having some pretty crazy and scary nightmares! They feel so real and I wake up pretty stressed out.  Anyone else experiencing this?

I'm having horrendous nightmares too mine mostly invole me either being abandoned or that I'm crazy and am just hallucinating my pregnancy and it's really cancerous tumors inside me.  Since I am a rarity in pregnant women (hcg levels are too low for it to show up at all and rarer yet because I actually know and understand my body enough to know I'm pregnant plus the 4 missed periods when I'm normally regular with my period.) I feel I'm not sure what is the truth any more and what is real. Any one else feel like this is similar to them and any advice?
Please don't say go to see a doctor the ones where I live are a-wads they won't do any other tests to find out if it's pregnancy and they won't try to find out what is wrong if it's not!

Yeah, I get those too. They've lessened recently. Mostly they were just super vividvivid and strange, not necessarily terrifying, but I did have those too. It's supposed to be pretty common in pregnancy. I guess it's just all of the hormones.

Every night for the past 2 months i have very vivid unpleasant dreams, sometimes nightmares. Some nights i am scared to go to sleep if i had a really bad one the night before. Not pleasant at all and really hoping they go away.

I get them very badly, they feel so real. They're usually very scary, people getting dismembered regularly in them. Also ones of my husband doing things that make me upset, just this morning I had one and I'm still shaken up (since he's been...kind of unfaithful when we first got together and the proceeding year) it makes me so unstable. I texted him almost accusingly still laying in bed in tears and only half awake, poor guy lol

I had bad dreams all the time. Except mine were always of my husband cheating on me. I would wake up crying my eyes out and almost feel betrayed by him the whole next day lol. My dreams are always so vivid and feel so real when I'm pregnant.
