I've been told that dreams while you're pregnant will feel so real. This one did for me.
I went into labor, like this early into labor. I couldn't find anyone, no one was around, no one was answering my calls. I get myself to the hospital and within 3 hours of going into labor at home, I gave birth. I immediately pass out, don't wake up for 3 days. They release me from the hospital then, the baby is perfectly healthy, but still NO ONE is there. Last I remember I was at the store trying to figure out what to buy because I had nothing.
I told my friend about the dream and she says it will repeat itself because it's my biggest fear. Please tell me that's not true!

Re: Dreams
I had one where I had five babies and we were at a community event and people were passing the babies around and I couldn't keep track of them. I didn't even know how many were boys or girls. The feelings in it were so real. The gut wrenching feeling of not being able to find your child. Ugh.
I also had one where the baby was crying inside me and there was nothing I could do to help it. Like crying and crying but there was nothing I could do. It was awful.
Anyway, it is totally normal and I am sorry you had a nightmare. The feelings are so real and so scary.

Lesson learned!!
I've never had recurring dreams so idk if that's pregnancy related or just an old wives tale. They have felt more vivid and real though even if they're just nonsense dreams.
