My mother-in-law keeps saying certain dreams mean you're pregnant. Do certain dreams really indicate pregnancy in our culture? I'm curious to know if there's any truth to this.
I am in my 5th month now and my dreams are literally so wild and vivid these days! Last night I dreamt of swimming with dolphins, it was so strange. Did anyone else also start having crazy dreams in their second trimester, or is it just me?
Honestly, I keep dreaming about holding a small baby or finding green mangoes, haha. My MIL says dreaming of small fishes or water means good news is coming soon. We are trying too, so I hope these sweet dreams are actually a positive sign.
Haha, with my twins, I only dreamt of double trouble, like finding two shoes or two mangoes! People talk about fish or baby dreams, but honestly, it's just our tired brain playing games. Just enjoy the sleep while you can, once babies come, there are no dreams, only night shifts!
Many people say dreaming of sweet fruits or babies means pregnancy, but dreams are mostly just our daily thoughts. I used to dream of ice cream and jalebis all the time, maybe because my diet was so strict due to sugar levels! Just stay happy and focus on eating healthy meals right now.
Actually, there is no scientific dream that proves pregnancy. When I asked my doctor about my crazy dreams, she said hormonal changes in pregnancy affect our REM sleep, making dreams super clear and memorable. So it's just hormones working, not any magical sign.
I used to get so stressed dreaming about weird animals and falling down when I was expecting. I literally cried thinking it was a bad omen, but my doctor laughed and said it is very common. Don't worry at all, just ignore them and sleep peacefully.
