Stressful dreams

[SunnyRain]

Recently I've started having stressful, angry dreams about the stupidest things. My heart's been racing when I go to bed and I can't find a way to be peaceful.

During the day I'm just peachy, no problems and not emotional or moody. It just seems to come on at night.

Has anyone else experienced this? Is it a symptom of pregnancy, or something else? As far as I know, there's nothing bothering me in my everyday life.

I had the odd dream/nightmare during the first trimester, but now, holy cow, I am up at least 4 times a night in a sweat. Last night I had sex with my DF co worker, he had an affair and then someone was in my house standing next to my bed - all in my dreams of course, but those 3 separate dreams in one night, sheesh. Every night I can have a raunchy dream and some real psychotic one's back to back. I am absolutely exhausted from that and also getting up to pee so much.
It seems pretty normal from what I have read from other pg women.

Yep weird dreams come with pregnancy. I've had a number of pregnancy related ones - all involving having a baby girl but the amnio has confirmed I'm having a boy. I've also had lots of just freaky weird dreams on all sorts of subjects and had a threesome in one - something I'd never do in a million years. Just something you have to get used to I'm afraid.

With my first pg, every night for a long time I dreamt that my DH died in every possible way, I'd always wake up crying uncontrolably and sweaty, I think it all has to do with pg hormones floating around causing havoc.

It seems a lot of pregnancy dreams are related to the baby or the huband, but mine have been about other random things.

Oh well, probably is hormone related. I'm trying not to stress baby out with my moods, but I can't control my dreams.
