A member asked:
Can nightmares hurt my unborn baby? i have been experiencing very vivid dreams that cause my anxiety and blood pressure to go up.

NO!!: Nightmares will NOT hurt your baby!! (BTW the reverse may be more common eg: fear of harming your baby--giving nightmares. Discuss your SLEEP HYGIENE with your Primary Care Provider! See what the reason for your vivid dreams may be...ask your OB-GYN if he/she has a suggestion BUT STOP WORRYING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hope this helps.....Good Luck Dr Z

Anxiety in Pregnancy: I feel your distress. At age 18, becoming pregnant stresses of relationships, past traumatic experiences, past unresolved conflicts seem to have caused uncertainty, loss of control, vulnerability, anxiety and fear in you. Feeling relaxed, happy, and in control of your life will decrease anxiety about newborn baby. Do Breathing Relaxation, Yoga, Meditation See Psychiatrist for Therapy.
