Mothers Intuition or Just a Dream?

So I had a dream last night that my baby was already born, I was doing a diaper change and the baby was a girl.  I have heard that some women have dreams about the gender of their babies and are right (but hell we've got a 50 50 chance, so odds are pretty good either way).

Of course it doesn't help that DH and I were talking last night and he said something about "my son"... I said "The more you say that the bigger chance we'll have a girl you realize that right?" lol...  My subconscious likes to take little meaningless conversations and turn them into dreams so this might have been the reason behind it...    DH and I would *LIKE* a boy for a couple of reasons - 1st he's the last in his line (i.e. carry on the family name) and 2nd, my parents have only grand daughters so I think it would be cool to give them a grandson... But we both agree that we don't care (cliche coming) what is so long as it's healthy....

Re: Mothers Intuition or Just a Dream?

  • I have no idea 2 days after I got my BFP I had a dream that I was holding a tiny tiny baby wrapped in a pink blanket and then about a week ago I had a dream we introduced our baby girl Carmella Marie to our family...From every mom I have talked to who had dreams about the gender their dreams were accurate so I guess we will find out in about 2 months if our dreams are true or not!!

  • I have yet to dream of the baby. I have only had dreams saying, that i'm pregnant so far. But you're right, it's pretty much 50/50 but I've heard of the mother's intuition also! Maybe you're carrying a healthy boy! :)

  • I kinda hope dreams are not mothers intuition because the only baby dream I have had the baby was EXTREMELY TAN and had black hair with a pink flower bow. My fiance and I are very light skin with bleach blonde hair... HAHA

    Something you're not telling your DH??? lol... Kidding!!  That's funny though lol. Maybe your subconscious is telling you that your baby will be taking traits from other members of the family ??  It's fascinating isn't it?

    I hope so! I mean, not to sound bad but I'd really love a boy...but I won't be disappointed if it's a girl. I will love either baby just the same :)

  • I had a dream that I was in labor and I "helped" deliver a "baby" girl.  I say "helped" because I pulled her out.  I say "baby" becasue she was atleast 2 years old with a page boy hair cut and a pink bow.  If any of you read the comic strip Luann?  Toni's little niece Shannon?  That is EXACTLY what this "baby" looked like. 

    And I struggle with my upper arm strengh (its like a kitten) and in my dream she was too big to pick up and hold and I dropped her

    Its really funny you said that actually. My fiance went through a pregnancy with an ex and 4 months of the babies life before he found out it wasn't his!! I always tell him the newborn pictures look exactly like the real dad and not him and wondered how he didn't see it. Maybe we talked about that the night I had that dream. Its 100% his obviously but maybe I was worried the baby wouldn't look like him or something weird hahahaha never really thought about it that way

    Oh man... your poor DH... I'm sure that's it though!  The subconscious brain works in weird ways.  I'm telling you, if I see a spider or a bug during the day I force myself to continue to think of it. If i put it out my mind quickly I'll dream about spiders and bugs LOL... I learned that at a young age cuz I'm SO not a fan of bugs LOL

  • I think the dreams are your subconscious telling you what you would prefer in gender. Sure we all want a healthy baby, but some people really have strong  feelings towards one gender over the other.

    I said from day one with Max that I was having a boy. This time I really think I am having a girl. In February we will see if I am 2 for 2.

    Well the thing is, I would prefer a boy... but I dreamed that I'm having a girl... LOL

  • I dreamed last night that I had a baby girl. I think that's mostly because I'd really like to have a girl, not so much an intuition thing. Anyway, she was gorgeous, and she had MH's fluffy blond hair

    ...and then, because it was a dream, and my dreams are freaking weird, she was a baby hamster (still blond, btw), and I was freaking out because I was afraid I wouldn't be able to nurse such a tiny baby. Anyway, sorry if I'm sidetracking, I just found that part really funny.

  • I think it 50/50, but I say that because of my experience. When I was pg with my son I had about 2 dreams about a boy, but TONS about having a little girl. I was so positive we were having a girl that I was shocked when the sonogram showed a boy without question. My mom also just 'knew' I was going to be a boy, but she was very wrong too!

  • Hmmm, I wonder what a dream about twins means. I've never had a twins dream before but I did shortly after my BFP. In the dream DH and I wanted to know the sex, but we had the tech write it down and put it in a sealed envelope so that my dad could announce what it said to everyone. Before he read it out loud he came to me and said, "Its a boy....and a girl. It's twins!" Haha! I've also had a dream where I was BFing a baby girl, but vie thought girl from the moment I got my BFP. Only time will tell. :)
  • I had a dream that I had a boy and I was so happy. but than i went home to clean up before the baby came home and when I got back to the hospital they said I never had a baby.... the baby was stolen! Yikes! hope that doesnt really happen!

  • hmm, not sure about everyone else, but i started having dreams when i was 16 that my first BORN would be a girl, and sure as the world the was.....7 years later >.< and i had a friend who said she just felt a really masculine energy (she is wiccan) and what do you know...but it was a boy. this time around i have a hunch it's a boy but i could have just talked myself into that lol. i have insisted to everyone i tell that this one is a boy and thus we are done lol...*insert Murphys Law*
