Vivid pregnancy dreams

Anyone else having them? I hear it's supposed to be quite common.

The night before last I dreamed an entire historical docu-drama series about the Mostyn family of Southampton. It was very much like The Edwardian House. As far as I know there is no Mostyn family and I haven't been to Southampton since I was a student (long, long ago) when I drank Skittle vodka and threw up in a night-club.

And last night I dreamed a rather brilliant, stylish thriller in which I was one of those innocent-yet-hot female assassins who seem to crop up so frequently in films, and James Bond was in unrequited love with me.

I'm starting to think I should take notes and try and pitch some of these to the BBC!

Yes, it's like the dreams I get when I have a high temperature, totally freaking me out!

I have been having really sexy dreams but annoyingly I never quite...ahem....'get anywhere' in them. I wake up VERY frustrated.

I have amazing, epic sagas of dreams during pregnancy, it's the best side effect.

YES!! Phew, am glad its not just me!!
Mine have been very sexually explicit - I've been waking up all embarrassed!! Blush

Another one I had last night was were the hair on one of my legs was really thick and long, more like spikes on a porcupine even though I'd shaved them! I was really worried and paranoid about it and was getting very upset! It was so vivid I woke up stroking my leg to check it wasnt real!!

Crazy!!

LOL, that hair dream is quite strange! My sex drive is definitely up but my actual dreams aren't sexy.

Last night I dreamt Richard Branson and Noel Edmonds (something about the facial hair maybe) propositioned me about having a threesome. Nice. Not

I haven't been pregnant for around 11 years, but remember how vivid and bonkers the dreams were.
Many involved my DHs unpleasant boss and me being found in compromising posititions in the school swimming pool. Some were about the man who ran the butchery dept in our local supermarket, others were about the woman who threaded my eyebrows.

I know, awful. Branson looked a little sheepish after they pitched the idea and then drifted away, leaving me with just Noel Edmonds looking hopeful. I had to decide what to do. You'll be pleased to hear I turned him down.

Had to comment especially after the richard branson and noel edmunds 'dream'. I'd personally class that as my worse nightmare.

I've had lots of vivid dreams of different degrees but the ones that stand out are the ones that I wake up crying from. These are usually dreams of things in my past and how they could of been different. They are the ones that get to me the most

I don't think I've been getting the dreams, but I never ever remember them so maybe I have....
They sound quite good fun, I'm a bit sad that I'm still waiting for a saga to happen to me!!!

I had a vivid dream that I had my baby and it turned out to be a cupcake and I had to stop everyone eating it!!

Then there was the other dream that my house was chocolate and it was a hot summer and I had no way to stop it melting...

Strange dreams!!

I had a really vivid one last night about the baby. It was a boy and I was trying to breastfeed him because I had 'special milk' that would make him strong!

I was convinced I was having a girl but not so sure now!

Also had one recently where I was in space. That was pretty cool :-)
