~It Felt So Real-Thought I Actually Had Him~

I am sure we have all experienced those dreams that felt so incredibly real we thought it actually took place. I had one of those this evening. I had a dream that I had baby Josiah! It felt so real that I was actually disappointed when I woke up to find that I was still pregnant. Lol. He was so adorable in my dream! The dream was weird because my family members were there but my husband was working far away so he missed the birth of him. It was an easy labor, I had him in the wheelchair before I could even get into the hospital bed. I was having braxton hicks contractions before bed and I'm sure that's what led to this dream. Made me feel like I don't have much longer to go though...

Sounds like you are getting anxious for his arrival. He will be here so enough and you will get to hold him for real.

@Happy2beme Yeah I am but I'm also really scared about labor. I had a rough labor with Julian so I'm really nervous this time. =(

I remember when you announced to us here that you were pregnant. How much longer do you have left until your due date?

@Marty1 Thank you! It is very painful but absolutely worth it once the little one is in my arms. =)

I am a big fan of easy labors. Mine were all easy until the twins. I do hope that you have an easy one and not much longer to go.

@mom210 Thank you, I hope he is much easier than Julian! I am terrified of labor right now because I had a bad experience a year ago.

I've had dreams so real that they actually affected me for days afterward. It's kind of surreal when that happens. How much longer until your due date for your baby?

@LovingMyBabies How exciting! You're getting close! You know what would be really fun? If all of us on myLot got together and did a pool where we all picked the day and time we thought your baby would be born, and then whoever was closest to the actual date/time of delivery would win a prize. Well, maybe not an actual prize, but a virtual prize where they would have bragging rights as the official winner! haha How's your husband doing?

Yes, I have some dreams that seem so real, but lots of times they are not good dreams and when I wake up and realize it was only a dream, I am so relieved.

You really may have been given a preview of what is to come. I dreamed of my daughter decades before she was born. Perfect match. Dreamed of my son also before I was even pregnant. Again perfect match. Blessings and Hugs
