Baby.

I've recently discovered that pregnancy brings along a most interesting "symptom": vivid dreams. The last few weeks my sleep has been constantly disrupted by these strange, and usually scary, dreams. Having previously been a "dream-less" sleeper, it's been quite a change.

I decided to look into it and found that this is actually extremely common during pregnancy. Many women described their dreams more as nightmares, while others said they simply dreamt of their future life with baby. After countless nights of nightmarish horror dreams, last night I finally dreamed of baby.

Details have become a little sketchy, but the parts I do remember are wonderful. Baby was a little girl, and she was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen. I couldn't stop holding her and smiling at her.

It was a dream I wanted to last forever.

Yes I remember having some nightmares at the begining as well. Now that I am at the end, I am still having interruptions during my sleep tho this time my baby is trying to kick its way out! You cant sleep through it. Its gods way of preparing me for my sleepless nights to come.
