Nightmares and changing emptions.

I am 22 weeks pregnant and I have been having horrible nightmares. These nightmares feel so real, that sometimes I wake up and have to convince myself that its not true. And it has come to the point where I am feeling hatred towards my husband over past experiences between us. Things we have already worked through. Is this normal and how do I deal with it. I don't want to lose my husband over stupid dreams.

I would try a dream journal. Only instead of saving the pages, go back over the convos you and your hubby had to work out that specific problem and then burn it. Trash it tear it whatever. For me at least, that symbolism always works

What scares me more is how I feel afterwards. They have been bringing all the pain back from the past and I am starting to have feelings of hatred. He wont understand, and why should he. We worked on this and moved on. I just hate how it is changing my feelings for him. I just don't know what to do.

See I am the same way. My nightmares started off about my husband, now I am having nightmares about my daughter dying and someone from my past kidnapping her. They are just so vivid. If I can try not to sleep I will.

Its lasted my entire pregnancy and gotten worse to the point I wake up disoriented and crying and dont know where I am. Im 26weeks now, and dread going to sleep because im guaranteed a nightmare. Some of them I even see my baby being murdered and I can hear its screams when I wake up. A friend of mine never shook really bad nightmares AFTER she gave birth so now im freaked thinking ill never be rid of them now.

I understand that. I went on bed rest at 11 weeks. I love my baby girl and I cant wait to hold her.
