Weird experience...

I know this might be a bit far fetched but I had a strange dream in January, exactly one year since my grandmother died and I didn't realise that it was the day until I spoke to my mum the next morning. It happened a day or two after my period came.
My dream was about my late grandmother.
In the dream she was pregnant (bizarre in itself) but she was smiling at me and really happy and running her belly bump.
I then found out I was pregnant a month later so I conceived that cycle! I think I do have some psychic abilities, as does my mum. I like to think my grandmother came to me as we had been trying for 6 months by that point. It could be a coincidence, but I don't think it is.

Sorry, OP, what's your question?

I'm just wondering on thoughts and if anyone has had anything similar.

Wow! That must have been quite emotive for you and congratulations on your pregnancy!

I had a very similar experience, which I didn't realise the significance of until much later in my pregnancy.

In my first trimester I had a dream that my daughter was missing her hand. She was just sat on my lap, super happy, but without her hand. I woke up and didn't think anything of it at all, just chalked it up to the weird pregnancy dreams!

At our 20-week scan we were totally blindsided to find out that it was a girl, and she was missing her hand. There were loads of possible horrible causes and complications and we were given counselling about termination.

A few days later when we were at our worst emotionally, I suddenly remembered this dream. Luckily for us, there were no more complications other than her missing hand and we now have a glorious almost 2-year old girl.

That dream is the weirdest, and strangely one of most emotive things I've experienced. Even when we were at our most terrified, I kept thinking of that dream and thinking that I'd had it out of intuition but also a sign that things were going to be ok and that she was going to be happy and healthy. I didn't want to believe it at the time, in case it was wrong, but it was also a huge source of comfort to me to have that image in my mind throughout the really scary times.

Years before I was pregnant, I would dream about a little blonde boy doing various things, nothing major - playing, talking etc. I have the darkest hair so thought maybe it could be my nephew and told my some of my friends about these recurring dreams and they suggested maybe it's my subconcious somehow. So I fell pregnant and found out it was a boy and was a bit worried about what you do with boys (only have sisters). That night I dreamt of the little blonde boy again telling me it will be okay. Couple of months later my blonde boy was born. Smile
