I'm just curious what yall think of this:

I've heard a lot of people talk about having pregnancy or baby dreams while they were pregnant, often before they even knew. I had a dream last cycle that I took a test and my husband was there with me, and it was positive, I could clearly see the two lines in my dream.

Last night I had a similar dream, except more detail. I dreamt that I took the test and it was positive (and I'm ON my period, lol) AF was around in my dream too, but it was just like random bleeding, bc I was pg in the dream, and we knew it was going to be a boy. Once again, my husband was there. (He is deployed.) I also dreamt that I gave birth (this was last week, very vivid dream) Now, my guess is that I'm just thinking about this SOOOO much that I'm dreaming about it. I mean, I can't be pregnant, AF is here! (Day four, so I know its not spotting or anything.)

So what do you guys think of the dream/pregnancy correlation? I would have loved to see a correlation, but since I've had so many and not end up pg, I just see it as a fluke now. Comments?

i have those dreams a lot too. but i think most women who want to have babies have these dreams. i really just think it's coincidental that someone would have a dream and then find out that they are pregnant. it's so hard not to read anything into it though! i have a pregnancy dream probably about twice a month and last month i had a dream that AF came to visit so i thought maybe since i've always had a dream about being pregnant and end up not pregnant that if i dream about AF then maybe i really am pregnant! i wasn't though :( i love those dreams though.. because i can always remember how i felt. and if just dreaming about a baby can make me feel that much love i can't imagine how having a baby would really make me feel.
