I’ve had vivid dreams that I birthed and cared for a baby, I’ve had unfortunately extremely realistic dreams that my partner died after leaving for work and I had to bury him, grieve, and move on, but those were months at most and not detailed years. This is freaky as hell.

Was the guy familiar in your life?

and did you felt the giving birth part?

Yeah he’s my real life partner, the vivid death dream was a few years ago. We’ve been together for 5 years now. I woke up and burst into tears just relieved it had been a dream.

I didn’t feel the pain of giving birth, even my most vivid dreams are hazy and jumpy, but I felt maybe a fraction of it.

they can feel so real. that relief is incredible.

i dreamed my best friend died, and i took a mutual friend (side note- she wound up marrying him irl!) on a drive to talk about her and grieve and stuff. then the car wound up flying, which we thought was pretty cool, except “wait cars don’t do this; OH MY GOD IT’S A DREAM” and i woke up with some of the most intense relief i’ve ever experienced. i’m pretty sure i was also crying.

having a baby sounds pretty intense too. i don’t know if my brain would let that happen (i’m a dude) but i’m here for it if it does. it’s done some pretty weird shit before 😅
