Anyone Else??

So, I am almost 23 weeks and on the nights where i actually manage to sleep lately i have started having "birth" dreams. The last 2 nights i have had a dream about giving birth. the first nigh my son turned into a kitten and i was furious. Last night my waters broke and they said he had pooped so once he was born they took him from me and said i couldn't see him for 3 weeks. I honestly wasn't really worried about anything bad happening when the time came but now i am starting to think about the possible negatives more and more. Has anyone else been dealing with this or dreams that are similar about there unborn baby?

  • While I haven't had any vivid ones yet this time, with my first two I did have very similar ones to yours.  I birthed a dolphin with DS1, a 5 year old with DS2 and a polly pocket sized one although I can't remember what pregnancy that was.  From what I remember dreams like this are very common and I remember a lot of stories on the boards the last two times.

  • I dreamed last night that I was in preterm labor. I was so upset that I couldn't stop crying. Then I noticed they were giving me pitocin, so I asked why and the dr said I could stop if I wanted to. Which I of course did. So my labor stopped and I was discharged home, but he told me I couldn't go on our Hawaii vacation in 2 weeks just to be safe. Dreams are weird.
  • I dreamed I had twins last night and the only thing that I was concerned about in my dream was having to buy a bigger car. haha. Which I guess it my brains way of sorting through the fact that I haven't had any ultrasounds done and I'm much much much bigger than I was with my son. Guess we'll see on birth-day. I'm down for a new car.

    I remember with my son I had a dream where I took him via c-section to feed him thanksgiving dinner, then put him back in the stomach with a huge plate of turkey and cranberries and this dessert my aunt always makes and then worried that I hadn't really given him any vegetables and none of it was organic. haha, That was before I even cared if I ate organic or not. I was carrying him around on my chest with my stomach cut open. Eating thanksgiving dinner. haha.
  • The other night I dreamed that I was looking at my baby moving in a bucket - trying to point it out to someone (as if the bucket was my stomach). **My husband had been trying to feel the kicks I was feeling right before we went to bed that night....and I had just been making centerpieces out of buckets for a party (so I think that made its way into my dream)
    Anyways, then in the dream a fish came out of the bucket and everyone was telling me that was my baby and I needed to swallow it to get it back in my stomach! I was scared & didn't think I could swallow such a big fish but didn't want my baby to not be in my belly! It was so weird!!

    I havent had any weird dreams lately but earlier in the pregnancy I had a dream that I gave birth to a baby girl but she looked nothing like a new born! She was HUGE (maybe the size of a 1yr Old) & I was so upset & didnt want anyone to see her bc I wasnt going to get the "awhs" & "omgsh she is so tiny" comments LOL. Needless to say Im having a boy & for the sake of my hoohah hope he is the size of an average newborn!
  • i love it my dreams have definitely stayed crazy for sure. Its been a lot of preterm labor and birth dreams lately and he always turns into a kitten and runs away.
  • @FirstTimeMamaAricka its totally normal... I fought off a grizzly bear who kept climbing through my window with a box of cereal in my dream ! I also dreamt I had multiples and wow dreams are just crazy while pregnant.
  • I had a crazy dream that my family kept stopping by while I was delivering the baby even though I had clearly told everyone no one in the delivery room besides my husband. I was crying uncontrollably in my dream because no one was listening to me and everyone said I was being emotional because of the pain. 

    I know a lot of women who have had crazy pregnant dreams about labor and delivery. I'm guessing that won't be the only one I have!
  • Everyone's having crazy baby dreams and I'm just having a bunch of crazy sex dreams! My mind must be in a far different place at this point!
