No Dreams About Baby

Hiya

No big problem but I am wondering why I have not had any dreams about the baby this time. Usually I dream about everything and I remember them a lot.

When I had the MC I dreamt that I was having a boy, having twins, having a girl, having a MC, etc. So, it's not that I'm hoping for a prophetic dream, it's just that I am wondering why there are no dreams.

This time I have dreamt that I was having a MC and that I was having twins and one died and that's why I was bleeding, but nothing more. I would feel more connected if I would dream about it. Am I trying to protect myself?

After the 3 days of no spotting, it has returned but I am not too worried. My partner was though so he asked me to phone OB, who said if it gets worse or I become worried he will give me another US Friday (I am not booked in until the following Friday). But, I want to be able to wait 3 weeks and not get one everytime I am a bit frightenend. I am lucky to have this OB.

I have 'great' symptoms - feel nausea almost all day, swollen boobs, very tired and now my nose is beginning to bleed. So, I am not too nervous that everything is not still ok, but of course a bit more worried than if there was no spotting.

Anyone else not dreaming about their baby?

Peppershine,


Every pregnancy is different and you might start dreaming later on.

I have only had 2 or 3 dreams about this pregnancy so far.

I agree with what Jenn and Ann said. I didn't have alot of dreams about this baby for quite awhile either. It is possible that it is also your PAL brain at work. Maybe your subconscious mind is not dreaming or not letting you remember the dreams so that you don't get attached yet. Not sure. But I don't think it is anything at all to be concerned over.

Yeah, I haven't really had any dreams about my baby. I've had some really WEIRD dreams though. I did have a dream the night that I woke up and was spotting. I went back to bed and had this really weird dream that I had my baby and it was really ugly, had 4 crazy sharp teeth and I didn't want it near me. But that was the only dream I had about my baby. Pretty sad, right?

Peppershine,
I hope all is OK and that the spotting is, again, nothing to worry about. I'll be thinking about you!! I have not had ANY baby dreams yet. I had one baby dream before I got my bfp that I was having a baby girl, but nothing since then. Your symptoms sound great (although not fun) and I'm sure not having any dreams is nothing to worry about.

Chin up!!
