Before I start im very happy in a relationship we are engaged but no date set yet as waiting until had our baby.

Very randomly Weds night I woke up freaked out as it was my wedding day and was marrying my childrens father (not been with him for nearly 5 years), laughed it off to myself. Then last night I woke up had been dreaming of him again this time it was him in my garden building something I dont know what!!! Went back to sleep and found myself dreaming of another ex we were on a night out and my OH was there aswell this time.

This is very unusual for me tbh never really remember my dreams so why suddenly am I dreaming of exs Confused.

Well, if you don't remember dreams you may well be dreaming of them every night! I think it's just random - maybe you saw someone in the street who subconsciously reminded you of them, etc.

Dreams are random. They're weird. They don't mean anything.

it's to do with how you felt at the tiem.
i've an x who dumped me with a character assassination and i was devastated, but after a while when my anger kicked in i felt he was an asshole to me, so i sometimes dream i'm getting back iwth him but i figured out it was a dream to do with compromising my integrity somehow.

i've another x, and i dreamt i was in a jail cell in a wedding dress! don't have to be freud to figure out that one.

Dreams are just brain junk.

Last week I dreamt that my dh went on a date with Ian somehalder or whatever he's called from vampire diaries. Dh isn't gay and I don't have any interest whatsoever in Ian whatshisname. I told dh when I woke up and he laughed his head off. Weirdest thing is I wasn't even remotely bothered in the dream - just waved him off!! HmmGrin

I also have an ex who crops up in my dreams with worrying frequency.

Last night, he was swimming in the duck pond in our local park - which I saw yesterday IRL had warning signs around it due to poisonous algae!

I maintain I have no vengeful feelings towards him whatsoever; my subconscious appears to have other ideas....

I'm pregnant and had a FILTHY dream about the boy I had my first kiss with. He was fully when I was 12 and I have never seen him since but jesus I was dry humping the mattress when I woke up. Blush

Don't worry bout the dreams, they are totally random.

God yes I dream about exes and it especially happened when pregnant. Sometimes I'm back with them and in the dream I'm vaguely thinking "but what about DP, where is he...? Am I cheating on him? Well, I suppose it's done now." I've woken up feeling very guilty and taken a few minutes to convince myself it didn't happen!
