Trying to Get Pregnant

Tell me your craziest baby dream

I don't often have dreams about actually having a baby (I'm currently childless, this is my first attempt at TTC) but when I do it's normal life plus an infant. Not so today, my friends. 

Last night I dreamt DH and I adopted fraternal twins, a boy and a girl. They were supposedly nine months old, but the girl looked way smaller. The boy was named Benjamin and was a happy, smiley blonde and blue-eyed chubber. The girl was named Naturea (are you mocking my love of nature names, subconscious??), which was given to her by her birth mother and which I desperately wanted to change. She was also an African American girl with very tight curly hair, and I remember thinking "oh god I need to look up how to style natural black hair, my white ass has no experience with this!" 

DH and I were driving, and Naturea was asleep on his chest newborn style. I was playing with Benjamin who was sitting in the passenger side at my feet. Safety first! I spent the whole dream in a complete panic about having gone instantly from childless to mother of two. Poor Naturea and Benjamin. 

So tell me what was the nuttiest dream you've had about having a kid? Or if you already have kids, about your present or future children?

    @mommy2C Shapeshifter baby; I feel like there's a romance novel plot here. "My Husband the Secret Shapeshifter."
    Lol Thanks for the story idea Jill! I promise I will give you credit when I hit it big a la Twilight.
  • @mommy2C Fuck credit, I want a kickback!

    I used to constantly have baby dreams when I was in undergrad. In the one that stands out, I was huge-belly pregnant, holding a baby, and on a delivery bed giving birth. BABY OVERLOAD.

    More recently, my sister just had her first and I was going to spend the day with my niece. I had a stress dream where everything* possible went wrong: 

    1) The baby kept morphing through different ages, so I couldn't tell if she was an infant or 3-year-old.
    2) She got into the hershey's kisses and ate the tinfoil wrapper.
    3) I accidentally spilled half of the only bottle of breast milk down the drain and diluted the rest with water.
    4) I couldn't remember her name.
    5) I didn't change her diaper in time and there was a mess all over an entire white couch.

    *Ok, not everything possible. But in dream-state it was incredibly stressful.

    I had a dream where I was 9 months pregnant and hadn't told anybody.. even DH!

    It was more screwed up, however, because of how tactile the dream was. I've never been pregnant but I could feel the weight of it on my body. When I touched my belly I could feel the soft parts and then the harder, denser parts where the baby actually was. I could feel it move. 

    That's what really screwed me up.  
  • Way before we were TTC I had this dream that I suddenly woke up pregnant.  I had no idea how I got that way and no idea who the father was.  The thing I was really pissed off about in the dream, though was that my boobs weren't any bigger.  I couldn't care less about the unplanned baby, but dammit I was pissed to be missing out on big pregnancy boobs.  
  • I had dreams my sister was pregnant with all three of her boys before she was pregnant. I also had dreams of my best friend being pregnant before she was pregnant. It is creepy.


    I don't think I have had a dream I was pregnant.

    When I was 7 weeks pregnant with DD, a friend I hadn't seen or talked to in a long time sent me an email saying she'd had a dream I was pregnant. We hadn't told a soul yet. It was totally freaky!!!

    Similar story - the week my sister told me she was pregnant, I got an email from a friend I hadn't talked to in years, saying she had a "vision" while on a silence retreat that I was pregnant. (Maybe that doesn't qualify as freaky, since she was off by a sister...)
  • Back a long time ago I had a dream that I was pregnant.  It was summer time and I was wearing a super pretty sundress and sitting on the front porch steps of my dream farm house, sipping sweet tea.  It was sunset ish time and I looked out and saw my husband (of course I couldn't see his face- damn dream keeping me from knowing who I'd marry) playing with our little blonde toddler age son.

    The dream was really nice and left me feeling so happy, even though I was single at the time.

    But I wasn't pregnant with a goat.  I think that'd be awesome.

  • @LilMonk This is officially my favourite dream anyone has ever had. Haha. 

    @YellowBag I would also be pissed if I didn't have bigger pregnancy boobs! It's the only pregnancy "symptom" I'm looking forward to.

  • My baby dreams are depressing. I had a dream that I had this baby girl and she was laying in bed between H and I. It felt so effing real and she was so cute. And then I woke up. *sigh*
  • Last week I had a dream that I got KU before going back to NY to visit my family.  I was all kinds of worried about keeping it a secret until after but I was growing really really fast.  By the time I got on the plane they had to give me my own row because I couldn't fit in a single seat.  The giant belly was almost like another entity that was attached to me.  
  • I had one just last night, which is why I decided to actually contribute to this even though I saw it yesterday. Last night I had a very, very real and vivid dream. It's almost like I can't remember all the details but the feeling of it is still with me because it was so strong. I dreamed that I had a baby girl. I was holding her and kissing her and I was so in love with her. That's all I remember but I can still feel her in my arms and I feel all warm in my heart if that makes sense. I'm kind of sad about it........

    I actually had recurring pregnancy dreams when I was really young, like 12-13ish. They used to really weird me out, especially since I was really not even remotely sexually active or even thinking about that kind of stuff back then. But they started up again after we started TTC. The best one was I was at someone's house and got a positive test. I went running through the house trying to find my mom (for some reason not H) and found Ronnie James Dio, whose house is was apparently. I told him and he was all happy for me (but still didn't leave the pool game he was playing).

  • I dreamt that I had gone an entire pregnancy w/out knowing that I was pregnant. I delivered and it was so exciting. I was holding my baby and was on the top of the world. Then I realized that I had to go to work and didn't have childcare. I kept trying to figure out how I was going to work with the baby. I someone decided that I would just wear a baby carrier all day and maybe nobody would notice. (I work in a hospital btw). It was kind of a stupid dream. I somehow in my dream didn't think it was possible to take maternity leave!

  • When I was pregnant with DS2 I would have the same dream just about every night. I would dream that I was somewhere and his foot/leg would be hanging out. At the mall, work, church and everywhere else when I would look down there would be his foot/leg hanging out. I would wake up and check my body to make sure none of his body parts were hanging out.
