Ever had a dream where you were pregnant?

I had one last night, and I'll tell ya, I wasn't a fan. My whole family was so disappointed in me. I'm supposed to be the good child!

Anyway, it was way too vivid and now I have myself freaked out. I'm assuming that this is a common dream, but has anyone ever had a pregnancy dream where they actually turned out to be pregnant?

Obvs this is nothing scientific, but since I'm always trying to avoid doing work whilst at my job, I thought I'd get some perspective.

Re: Ever had a dream where you were pregnant?

  • I've had nightmares about being pregnant when I am not, and I have had dreams of not being pregnant when I am.

  • Before I got married, I occasionally had dreams that I was pregnant and trying to convince everyone that it had to have been immaculate conception but they wouldn't believe me. Those stopped when I got married, but I once dreamed that my husband was pregnant instead of me, and I was insanely jealous because I was the one who was supposed to be getting the pregnancy attention and not him!

    Then once I was actually pregnant I had crazy dreams but wasn't pregnant in them until starting in late 1st trimester.

  • I had a few dreams where I was pregnant (a few years ago, before I actually was pregnant). I always dreamed I was having twins (we are not having twins now).  It was weird but didn't really bother me at the time.

  • I have them a few times a year.  They blow, especially when it's an I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant-type of surprise!  Here's an infant.

    Which once again proves my theory: I need to start getting gut punched once a month.  I'd do it myself but the angle really wouldn't be hard enough to be effective.

  • Yes, and it resulted in twins.

    Good luck with that.

    I wrote a book! Bucket list CHECK!
  • Yep, every time I've been pregnant. Now every time I have a pregnancy dream I POAS. It's freaky.

  • Sorry! My pregnancy dreams usually show up about a week before my period is due.

  • Once or twice I have. Usually I have dreams that I've already had the baby (both while pg and not pg). They give me the baby and I don't remember giving birth but everyone acts like I did so I just go with it :)
  • I have had both pregnancy  and just had the baby dreams. The last one I had I was going into labor. In fact,  I was just having menstrual cramps while sleeping and it woke me up. On the just had the baby dreams, I had one where it felt so real! At first I didn't know I had had a baby and felt horrible. Then I saw him and absolutely fell in love with a baby that I don't have. The feeling was so strong that I would have sworn it were real. But nope, no babies in real life here! :)
  • Yup, I've also had both types of dreams--pregnant and just given birth. The latter kind have left me profoundly upset at times; sometimes they are so vivid that I really feel I've lost something/someone.
