Pregnancy dreams

So two nights in a row now I've had very vivid dreams that I was pregnant. 9 months pregnant in fact. I actually felt the anticipation of waiting and wondering when I would go into labor. Cruel!

I guess it could be because on Friday night, my mom said, "I thought you were going to tell us you were pregnant." I laughed and said, "No...far from it in fact." She said, "I just had a feeling." I said, "Well, mom, your feeling was WAY off this time." Her feelings about things are usually spot on.

Then on Saturday we went to see my 80 year old grandparents (who have Alzheimer's). As soon as I walked into their room, my grandfather said, "Lift up your jacket a minute." I did and he said, "Are you pregnant?" I said, "No, I'm just fat. I like to eat." (I have gained a few pounds since the last time he saw me...ugh...) He laughed and said, "Well, you're allowed."

I think if I have another PR dream tonight I might scream! It just leaves me feeling empty when I wake up the next morning.

Just wanted to vent. Thanks for listening!

    Same here! Last night I had a dream that my teeth started falling out, one by one. WTF?

    ANYHOO, I'm sorry @uptowngirl2009. :( What a tease to have those dreams and then have to deal with all that other stuff on top of it.
  • I hate pregnancy dreams. I always wake up all excited and then within seconds reality hits and I get upset.

  • Same here! Last night I had a dream that my teeth started falling out, one by one. WTF? 

    I've heard if you dream your teeth are falling out it's because you are keeping yourself from saying something you really want to get out. Just what I've heard...

    Sorry @Uptowngirl2009; sounds like one big cruel joke.  I really hope there's something to all of it!

  • I feel like my teeth fall out a lot in my dreams.  I have heard it means all sorts of different things, so who knows.

    And probably thanks to this thread, I had a dream that I was just barely pregnant, and people kept asking me, so I replied "No, I'm just fat. I like to eat." 

    (while the exact wording came from this thread, I'm sure, this is actually my standard answer when asked.. haha.)

  • I had a pregnancy dream last night where DH and I were going for an u/s and I was running late.  So I told them to go ahead and do the u/s without me and I would be there when I could.  Somehow they managed to do it without me there!  Weird.

  • @Uptowngirl2009, no worries! It probably had more to do with the fact that the only thing i am 'expecting' is AF :)
