Blimey, forgot all about this while pregnant.

DP said to me this morning 'you started shaking in the middle of the night. It was really weird'

lol one of the perks of pregnancy ill say!

heth1980 · 21/12/2009 11:21

I've never managed an orgasm in my sleep (sounds lovely though ) Definitely getting the erotic dreams though, and always involving some highly unattractive celebrity who I would never look at twice in the light of day..........

HeffaMerryChristmas · 21/12/2009 11:23

I'd forgotten too! Had loads of erotic dreams last night. Has put me in a very good mood today though

RnB · 21/12/2009 12:02

lol, yep definitely one of the perks of pregnancy. I definitely have a spring in my step today

Nobody ever mentioned this as a symptom to me but it does explain the very disturbing dream i had about Boris Johnson the other week

ellesabe · 21/12/2009 14:38

Ha ha ha!!!

No-one ever mentioned them to me either! Haven't had the big O in my sleep, but the dreams have been... interesting! Luckily all with my hubby

RnB · 21/12/2009 14:51

Glad the dreams have been regarding your hubby wiblela. My one last night involved me working in a hotel (I don't) and visiting many of the guests . Very unlike me!

Oh. This is an actual recognised symptom is it?

Last night, I had a very erotic dream - carrying out certain practices that I certainly wouldn't enter into in my normal, happily married, (ahem) heterosexual life.....

MamaLazarou · 22/12/2009 08:42

I was complaining to DH when we went to bed that I can't get up to any bedroom antics - my downstairs area is all swollen and just doesn't work

Then fell asleep and had a lovely rude dream about a hairy young vampire... it was nicer than it sounds!

DefNotYummyMummy · 22/12/2009 13:36

When I went into labour I was awoken suddenly from a dream where I had the big O (with another girl !) Very bizarre. We were flying. Very nice anyway. Never had dreams like that when I was pregnant with my son.

LaTristesse · 22/12/2009 16:07

Well how unfair! - last night I dreamed my wallet was nicked and my house burned down - two separate dreams!

bambipie · 22/12/2009 16:34

I'm glad to hear this is a common thing! Dreamt I shagged James May last night - and enjoyed it, twice! Urgh! i was so shocked and kind of violated feeling that I told dh. What disturbed me was that he seemed to find this rather arousing!

allibaba · 22/12/2009 17:33

I had a dream last week that featured Gwyneth Paltrow rather disturbingly. But I made the mistake of fessing up to DH who then took the piss out of his "lesbian" wife all day...

mampam · 22/12/2009 20:31

Oh my God!!! LOL at all of your dreams but I too have been having some erotic dreams. I just thought it was because sex has seriously dwindled since becoming preggers.

Had a dream the other night that I was a man doing it to a woman!! . What the hell is that all about??

NanBullen · 22/12/2009 20:55

i tend to get these type of dreams at least once a month around ovulation

not complaining though!

AbsB · 23/12/2009 14:31

God, and I thought it was just me! Glad to know others are enjoying this perk too... thought I was turning into a sex maniac!

pinkchampagne · 23/12/2009 14:34

All I had in my sleep during pregnancy, were leg cramps!!

LastOfTheMulledWine · 23/12/2009 14:42

I used to get this. Also get it when I ovulate.

And bizarrely, always involving practices I wouldn't entertain while awake and participants for that matter.

I mean, transexuals? C'mon brain, what's that? Not my usual fantasy fodder.

Had my fair share of 'pregnant with a tarantula' dreams to balance it out.

Pleasure/pain.

threeplusone · 23/12/2009 19:51

I have had a few very nice dreams ending in orgasms this Pregnancy.. which is number 4.. but never with any of the others... not complaining though very nice!!

HohohoBumperlicious · 25/12/2009 11:44

I get this occasionally anyway, but it was definitely more regular during pregnancy - a lovely side effect!
