Psychologist
Do not be alarmed at a one off dream. If you don't have a history of acting such dreams out, then you should think of it as a one off. Occasionally, our bodies do the things in real life that we do in our dreams, but it shouldn't be a cause for alarm for you or your partner as such.
If you are concerned, give your partner a key word that they can say that will alert you in your dream to what is going on. The word should be a bit odd and out of context, such as “butter” or “carnival” or something else equally absurd. This may break the dream for you.
If it does recur or if you are still concerned, I'd recommend you go and speak to your GP for a referral to a specialist who can help. The chance of it recurring is slim, but I can understand your concern as it would have been a frightening experience for you both.
I'm not a dream expert as such, so it would be good to see what some of my colleagues think about your issue and what I have said.
