I don't remember it being this bad in my first 2 pregnancies. It is so odd! Hopefully we'll both be getting some better sleep soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-stop-these-crazy-pregnancy-dreams#post-2697354 Mon, 13 Feb 2017 22:14:59 +0000 littlejoy 2697354@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@JessyMess: Brains are weird, huh? At one point in time, I was really into dream analysis and reading about recurring dreams that many people experience. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-stop-these-crazy-pregnancy-dreams#post-2697308 Mon, 13 Feb 2017 20:09:55 +0000 Mrs. Goose 2697308@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I thought mine had died down, but they haven't. They have been my constant pregnancy symptom this time...2-3 a night and all kinds of different wild stuff. I didn't know there was anything you could do to get rid of them??!! It's weird how tired it makes you feel to have had a bunch of dreams. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-stop-these-crazy-pregnancy-dreams#post-2697287 Mon, 13 Feb 2017 19:28:37 +0000 JessyMess 2697287@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlejoy: I had that college dream too with my husband in it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-stop-these-crazy-pregnancy-dreams#post-2697286 Mon, 13 Feb 2017 19:27:46 +0000 JessyMess 2697286@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>AAAhhh the pregnancy dreams are the weirdest! I have epic dreams that are longer and have more complicated plot lines than the entire Game of Thrones series. I also have rage dreams where I'm so unbelievably mad at someone, usually my Mom or DH, because they betrayed me in the dream. </p> <p>I try taking tums before bed and using a lavender oil and rose water pillow spray I made myself with stuff from Walgreen's. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-stop-these-crazy-pregnancy-dreams#post-2697255 Mon, 13 Feb 2017 17:55:24 +0000 peachykeen 2697255@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No advice but just wanted to commiserate :heart: The creepiest part for me is the random people that show up in my dreams... Like people from high school or college that I wasn't even really friends with and not even Facebook friends or anything. So where do they come from?? Pregnancy is so weird! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-stop-these-crazy-pregnancy-dreams#post-2697145 Mon, 13 Feb 2017 15:14:28 +0000 littlejoy 2697145@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mama Bird: I feel like I'm dreaming so much (and waking so much), that I can almost tell myself to wake up when the dreams are disturbing. </p> <p>I did have a sweet dream last night - DH and I when we were in college, and it was like we were falling in love again. It was so nice ... but then I had a weird dream that LO still had an umbilical cord (at 3 years old), and refused to let us cut it. Hahaha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-stop-these-crazy-pregnancy-dreams#post-2697143 Mon, 13 Feb 2017 15:12:23 +0000 Mrs. Sunshine 2697143@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlejoy: lavender with tangerine is my favorite sleep blend! It smells awesome! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-stop-these-crazy-pregnancy-dreams#post-2697127 Mon, 13 Feb 2017 14:51:40 +0000 Mama Bird 2697127@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think I got worse dreams if I ate too much before bed, or ate something very spicy. So I started eating a lighter dinner, and snacking when I got up at night. They didn't go away, but it seemed like the level of wackiness went down.</p> <p>Except this one recurrent dream that was driving me up the wall because it was really upsetting and didn't make any sense. Oh well, at least it was nice to wake up and realize that oh, once again, that was only a dream! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-stop-these-crazy-pregnancy-dreams#post-2697125 Mon, 13 Feb 2017 14:51:19 +0000 Coral 2697125@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You probably have your favorite essential oil brand but I really like the quality, education, and value of plant therapy. This one looks promising! I use the "kid friendly version" called nighty night (originally bought it for DS but he sleeps like a log anyway.)</p> <p><a href="https://www.planttherapy.com/sleep-aid-synergy" rel="nofollow">https://www.planttherapy.com/sleep-aid-synergy</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-stop-these-crazy-pregnancy-dreams#post-2697123 Mon, 13 Feb 2017 14:50:40 +0000 mrskansas 2697123@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I could never find a solution for the dreams. I did find that eating sugary food right before bed made them worse, so I avoided that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-stop-these-crazy-pregnancy-dreams#post-2697121 Mon, 13 Feb 2017 14:48:10 +0000 Coral 2697121@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlejoy: Depends on what works for you! Lavender would be an obvious choice but you could also try cedarwood or chamomile. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-stop-these-crazy-pregnancy-dreams#post-2697118 Mon, 13 Feb 2017 14:43:31 +0000 littlejoy 2697118@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Coral: I haven't. I have a diffuser ... what would you try? (we already have a fan and a humidifier - my husband is going to make fun of me for yet another device for sleep, haha) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-stop-these-crazy-pregnancy-dreams#post-2697115 Mon, 13 Feb 2017 14:40:12 +0000 Coral 2697115@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlejoy: Have you tried diffusing any essential oils in your bedroom? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-stop-these-crazy-pregnancy-dreams#post-2697110 Mon, 13 Feb 2017 14:35:56 +0000 littlejoy 2697110@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know I'm not alone - pregnancy for me is paired with the most insane dreams. Scary dreams, weird dreams, sex dreams, random dreams. Like, 5,458,430 dreams per night, and I wake up feeling like I haven't slept. </p> <p>I haven't started taking calmag yet, but I'm wondering if it'll help calm my brain down.</p> <p>Did anything work for you? </p> <p>Pairing the dreams with the bladder the size of ant makes for the shittiest sleep. ;) </p>
