  • Had the most horribly vivid dream I was pregnant and lost the baby, a feat made wholly impossible by the simple fact I'm a dude. While I often (like weirdly often) have pregnancy or baby related dreams I rarely have them about myself, so this one was a trip.

    • That is most definitely a trip especially the fact that you regularly have pregnancy/baby dreams, as a guy. Do you have any theories as to where it might come from?

      • No idea! On average I reckon I have a about one a week, this week I've had two. I often joke that I've delivered so many babies in my dreams I could probably do it for real at this point.

        What's extra weird is I'm someone who probably won't have kids for moral and ethical reasons.

        • Childfree people unite 🤝 I do very occasionally have pregnancy dreams too (less surprising as a woman), but they are uncomfortably arousing and I usually wake up feeling very weird because I do not want kids for probably the same reasons as you

    • If you believe that dreams have some form of meaning, pregnancy dreams mean that "it’s time for you to re-imagine your life and have some confidence in your potential." Or that something new is about to happen. But of course, again, this is if you believe in dreams and believe that they are trying to tell you something.

      I had a dream about meeting/talking with one of the voice actors on Critical Role, which means like seeing a celebrity represents your beliefs or understanding of them, whereas dreams about being good friends with celebrities represent your idealised version of someone you know in your life. So 🤷 it's all woo-woo stuff.
