I know how you feel I've had dreams similar to that my first born son passed away in April 24-2009,and I had crazy dreams and still didn't know what they meant, I'm sorry you and your husband had to go through with such a painful time.... I'm still depressed over my son's death... before me and my ex husband split up I couldn't. Grieving my husband at the time was abusive, so once I kicked him out for cheating on me... s

There is no blame honey...I hope the healing begins soon...

I have no expeirience with being a parent an i sorru for youre loss therepy would do great things for u! Therpy doesnt mean ur weak or phsyco it simply means ur strong enough to ask for help....u fell guilty (weather u realize it or not) about youre childs death a therepist will help u realize that and overcome the quilt its not ur fault u did everything u could!

Talk to a grief counselor, priest, support group, someone. This is normal, but can have a truly terrible effect on your life. My husband and I lost our first child hours after she was born, and for months afterward I'd have terrible nightmares, much like yours. My health suffered. My marriage suffered. My work suffered. I was in the military at the time, and my superiors forced me to go see a shrink. To my surprise, it really helped.

I'm very sorry to hear about your loss, I can't say its normal but it seems to me like your just upset, dreams are your thoughts, the things that you wouldn't think about while being awake, when your asleep, its just your thoughts, I can see why you would be having these dreams. Please know that your son isn't suffering anymore and keep him in your heart. Once again I'm reeally sorry to hear about it.

I am so sorry for your loss :( This is so sad. The previous posters are right - it's not in any way your fault. I know it's hard for you, and you probably will continue to have these dreams. Maybe you should seek help. It's nothing to be ashamed of. And if it helps you in the long run, then it will all be worth it. Good luck, and take care!

As the previous two posts mention, the sad tragedy of your small son was not in any way your fault. You gave him all the love and care you could and that matters deeply. Like Ollieo said, you may be feeling guilt, remorse and maybe also anger and fear. These emotions are manifesting themselves into more literal images through your dreams. It is a dark and questioning time for you, so your dreams will reflect that. Your son is not blaming you, there is nothing for you to be blamed for. He left this world with your love. If you feel it would help, try imagining your little boy during the moments that bring you happiness or imagine him as a bright spirit or small angel if you are spiritual. I'm sure it's difficult and my heart goes out to you. Once again, please realize that you and your husband were wonderful to your boy while he was with you and you did everything that good parents do to make his time with you the best it could be.

Sure.

You have had one of the most heart wrenching tragedies that could befall any person. And maybe, I'm speculating, you wonder "Was there something I could have done?'

And if so, that thought turns itself into guilt and remorse. But it is just a thought. If there had been anything you could do, you would have.

Do not allow this thought, if that is the case, to interfere with the real pain and loss you have suffered.

I'm very sorry for you loss. As you've said, it sounds like you're suffering from PTSD. There wouldn't be any harm in getting counselling for it.

It wasn't your fault that he had to go. You and your husband did all you could and loved him very much, I'm sure. It's most likely your own misplaced guilt; you're blaming yourself for being helpless at that time. In these sorts of events, it's quite common. You just have to remember that you have done nothing wrong. Get help to move on now.
