My dreams are semi-realistic...in that it is situations that would make sense in my life, but they are altered *just* enough to where you don't think it's weird in the dream, but then you look back later and realize WTF. For example, I dreamed my crossfit gym changed their programming to including a 75 min breakfast break (90 min on Thursday) in the middle of the workout. WTF?
Also had a dream some family drama was resolved, whomp, whomp, not true. BOO.
I had a dream that when I got home from the hospital my in-laws has remembered to pick up DS1 and DD from school, but apparently totally forgot about DS2 and no one knew where he was. It was weird because nobody seemed at all concerned that one of our 4 year olds was AWOL.
I've had multiple dreams where I wake up crying but aren't really baby related. The latest baby dream I had was DH and I were dropping off the babes to my parents to watch while we drove a moving truck across town. When we dropped the babies off I realized that I didnt pack them anything to eat and instantly started bawling that I was a horrible mom and couldn't even pack breast milk/formula for my children and that my parents would never watch them again because they had to go buy formula while we literally drive through town and back... I woke up dumbfounded... DH of course said I was crazy and it wouldnt happen because we have no reason to be driving a moving truck any time soon... like thanks for that comfort measure
I had a dream the other night that we had 3 Christmas trees in our house, including one right next to my side of the bed. They were lit up at all times and it made it so our house was super bright inside 24/7. It was night and DH and I wanted to get it on, but the lights were bugging me so we went to the garage and got in the car. However, our garage door was open and people kept coming up to the car and trying to sell us stuff or panhandle or at one point there was a fire crew trying to get on the roof of the house. Crazy.
The night before I had a more disturbing dream **TW** (unwanted/forced sex) about living in a society similar to handsmaid tale except instead of ceremonies with one family it was kind of a free for all. So women were afraid to leave their houses since men could do as they wanted. The only women who would be out and about would be the pregnant ones, so I was lucky enough to be able to go run errands and get out of the house, but being out there was also super uncomfortable knowing what would happen if I weren’t pregnant.
With my first I have many repeated dreams of forgetting her places as a newborn. I am sure that is normal but I would wake up in a panic several times a week that I left her at the grocery store on at the doctors office or at target!! Once she was born those dreams stopped.
This time around I keep having dreams of giving birth at work or in the car. All pretty possible scenarios that I am worried about. My first delivery was <11 hours from the time I noticed "something" might be happening to when she was born (only 6.5 hours were the hospital). Most recently I dreamt about giving birth in my office but I was too busy too leave so I finished work and then baby and I went to the hospital.
Had a dream last night that I was on a vacation in India. I have no desire to travel there but it was cool in the dream. And of course we were eating. fruit and cheese and I remember describing a cheese having the texture of a gala apple
I woke up sobbing. I had a dream about baby Henry that he was seizuring and was non-responsive. I think its because my H and I were talking about getting a first aid kit and my H (ex-military) was bringing up that we need crazy things like nasopharyngeal tubes and chest compressors. It was rough.
Last night i dreamt that I was getting my period for the first time post pregnancy (no clue how much time passed in dreamworld) and I had to change my pad every 5 minutes and I wasn’t sure how I was going to be able to get through my hour long subway ride to work. Freaked me out but I guess better than not sleeping which is the norm these days...
The other night I had a dream that I was at a play that stared Justin Timberlake at an arena. We had meet and greet passes for after the play, but JT would only talk to my brother because he could teach my brother tricks. I have no idea where that dream came from!
I woke up from a dream this morning where I was pregnant with twins (they were DHs) and decided to leave DH and marry my first BF (who is married, has 2 kids, and is currently a missionary in Zimbabwe) The wedding was all set up and everything without me knowing...I just walked in wearing only a ratty shirt and everyone cheered because they thought I wasn’t showing up. WTF?! I was SOOO thankful it was a dream because ewww.
Guess I shouldn't have read this thread yesterday! Last night I dreamed I had a baby girl (we are team green) **tw** and she stopped breathing and another time looked like she was choking on poop. She was very skinny and didn't even look like a baby but ended up fine **end tw** When I picked her up later in the dream I commented on how big she had gotten hard to believe she fit in my belly... And she was a puppy. (guess I should stop saying we are hoping for a baby but are ok with a puppy when people ask what we are having). She went back to a human but like a 4yeae old girl with a attitude talking about how she couldn't taste my milk because I was going but you need the colostrum! Tried to manually express and got colostrum and some blood. Thank you brain. Really liked NOT remembering my dreams because you thrown this crazy stuff at me!
Last night I dreamed I was taking care of my tiny baby. He was like the size of my hand and I was trying to get him to latch onto my breast. I wasn’t at all concerned about his size. Very weird!
My dreams seem dull but I always wake up feeling off. Like last night I dreamt we were moving again and H didn't have everything packed up. I was scrambling at last minute to get some of my personal stuff packed. I don't remember much else from the dream, but I felt so depressed in the dream and woke up feeling like something was wrong with H and I. I wonder if, in the dream, we were moving for financial reasons or marital problems. I haven't been able to shake the feeling and I miss my H extra today!
Last night I had a dream that DH was ranting and complaining about how much he hates balsamic vinegar. It was so reaitistic I asked him what he had against balsamic vinegar at breakfast. He did say it smelled funny, so I guess there is some truth to the dream.
I didn't dream this one, but my husband did last night. But it was so sweet I wanted to share.
He said he dreamt that he could basically see through my stomach and could see baby in there all squished up. And he goes "Hi, baby." And she smiled, and he immediately melted into goo.
I had a dream this weird guy was obsessed with breast milk. He was drinking all of my breastmilk and I was crying because baby won't have any when he is born. Guy gave me a double titty twister and I said "ha nothing happened " . He let go of the nipples and milk started flying all over the place uncontrollably. I started crying again. Such a weird dream!
Re: What my pregnant self is dreaming!! THIRD TRI!!
Also had a dream some family drama was resolved, whomp, whomp, not true. BOO.
Saturday I had a dream we went on a family vacation, including DHs ex-wife .
I woke up dumbfounded... DH of course said I was crazy and it wouldnt happen because we have no reason to be driving a moving truck any time soon... like thanks for that comfort measure

Also that my cat got in the bathtub with me.
I had a very random night.
