Why does baby have nightmares?

Baby
Baby's sleep

If your baby wakes up almost every night crying and terrified because of bad dreams, don't worry, nightmares are part of a child's psychological development.

  • Nightmares are very useful to the child, just like dreams.
  • They allow him to act out all the frustrations he has experienced.
  • Between what he wants to do and what he can do, your baby realizes that he does not have all the power.
  • Before the age of 4, he is unable to distinguish between what is dream and reality.
  • A small light by their bed or a magic object that can keep monsters away is also a good idea.

I never been so emotional more then now . I’m not excited at all to have my baby . This whole pregnancy been a nightmare. I been so lonely, sad , depressed. Just all the above . It’s all just hitting me at once . I don’t have that extra support from its dad . He just been doing him & play like I’m stupid when I know he messing around . He makes me sick to my stomach. I’m just so over it all . The most happiest moments I’m supposed to have are over with . I’m just not happy at all . I pray I don’t have postpartum depression smh

Hang in there girl! You may just be sooo happy with your little one that you won’t give 2 ? about what the baby’s dad is doing. Your little one will become your favorite thing and you may not even need the dad anymore
