I'm 36 weeks pregnant and for the past week have been having nightmares of people dying or people comitting suicide. I don't see blood though. I haven't been watching anything that would have me dreaming of such things either. I'm a little freaked out about it and was wondering if anyone else out there has or is experiencing this?

Vivid dreams are common during pregnancy. You have a lot of turmoil, fear & emotion that's been escalating for the better part of a year, mixed in with chaotic hormone levels. As long as you don't feel like acting out your bad dreams, and don't feel depressed, you shouldn't put too much stock in them.
I dreamed of being in a car that was on a hilly, loopy roller-coaster track, and I was stuck in the back seat & couldn't get into the driver's set to control the car because of my big belly. Your dreams might represent fear of giving birth ( the suicide part), or a circle-of-life type realization (that kind of thing just doesn't have as much impact until you have a baby).
If you feel really disturbed by them though, talk to your Dr. for your safety, and your baby's.
good luck1

When I was about 8 months pregnant with my first child - I had a nightmare that caused me to wake up with a start and sit up straight in bed, heart pounding a gasping for breath.
I dreamed that I was in a field and watching my little nephew play. He was running around and all of a sudden he fell through some rotten boards that led to a deep old well.
I woke up when he fell in.

I've expereinced nightmares when not pregnant (I'm male)... and they never came true, does that help? Sorry to break it to you but you're not psychic or controlling the entire fate of everyone in the universe. Dreams are usually the result of something in your past, not the future (except by coincidence). For anyone who disagrees, just bug them to prove it and they won't be able to.
Have you considered seeing a psychologist or trying to figure out what's bothering you? Fix yourself and you're golden. The baby is going to need you. I'm pretty sure the pregnancy has nothing to do with it.

Do you eat before going to bed? That's why it causes nightmares.
If yes, sit up for about 30 minutes to digest before laying down.
Other than that, during pregnancy you can dream about alot of things, that doesn't mean it's true, especially with the nightmares.
When I was preggars, I could feel when someone is horny, especially men! I felt when my brother in law was horny and he lived in another country! I experienced it several times. It was annoying. I also sense the same feelings when I saw other male strangers.

Honey i did the same thing and at the time i found a site online that said it was my anxiety over my pending delivery. No one expects anything bad to happen but its always in the back of your mind so thats why. Hope this helps

im not pregnant but of course your going to have nightmares. i assume that is all normal. i mean having a baby is a very big thing and it should be natural to be nervous(ESPECIALLY IF ITS YOUR FIRST) i think the best thing is to stay calm and make sure to tell the doctor...PS im under 16 so this might be true or might not...i made it up off the top of my head, but it seems reasonable to me!!! YOUR WELCOME!

Are you taking any new meds or eating a lot of chocolate? Chocolate gives me nightmares! (But it's worth it!)

don't worry, you are just venting your anxiety in dreams
