My Scary Nightmare

Postby aaronsmommy » Oct 24, 2005 10:00 pm

Last night I had this horrible nightmare that I was pregnant again. I had just found out, was already getting sick, couldn't prepare, had no idea what to do. My husband wanted me to terminate, I knew that was best, but couldn't figure out how to bring myself to do it.

I woke up shaking, in a cold sweat and everything.

I would love to have another baby. I know I could make it through a pregnancy if I could survive it, but I just don't WANT to. The more time passes, the less I want to, but I still have a hard time closing that door.

I wonder what it must be like to have normal pregnancies and not have to think about stuff like this?

Yikes! Time to check that IUD! That is a terrifying nightmare, but maybe your mind's way of trying to bring it to the forefront to deal with the issue? Or probably just a reaction to family goings-on. If it's any consolation, I had a dream that DH decided we needed to sell our house NOW and was parading people through it before I had a chance to clean. Yeah, your HG wins.

Even though I was able to make the decision to be finished with babies for myself, I still get downright hostile toward friends who opt for sterilization because they just don't want to deal with the hassle of birth control. Yeah, whatever. I still enjoy the memory of the 4 months I was on the pill after my tubal and felt nauseated every day--I figure it's as close to the level of real morning sickness as I'll ever get.
