anyone else have dreams about birthing your baby?
i have had them off and on since 5w. they have all basically revolved around the idea of giving birth at home, on my own. they're all pretty wonderful and i've only had one that was in any way scary (in the end i had to give infant cpr, but instead of a baby, i was giving cpr to a pregnancy test!).
last night i dreamed that i had an absolutely gorgeous baby boy. seriously, i cannot get the image of him out of my head. fair skin, dark, dark hair. it was funny because i remember very clearly looking to see if it was a boy or girl and got a clear image of his penis.
in all of my dreams, dh is never there, instead it's always some member of my family. in last night's dream, it was my dad (who i had just talked to on the phone for the first time in a long time yesterday afternoon). he was very sleepy and i had to wake him up to help me get settled after i had the baby. i had gotten so wrapped up in staring at my baby while we laid in bed and all the sudden i realized we needed to call dh, et al.
also, in all of my dreams, i am giving birth to a full term baby even though i am only as pregnant as i am now. so, last night, i had this perfect baby at 14w4d! in the dreams i always have to send someone out to get diapers and other baby supplies since we don't have anything yet!
anyway. just wondering if anyone else is having dreams like this?

: in one of those pink plastic tubs from a hospital and they all drowned. 
it was when i was trying to give cpr to all 4 of them that they transformed from babies to pregnancy tests.
Actually, I dreamed about our baby as a teenager the other day. That was interesting. I seem to be leaping ahead into the future - I wonder if I'll get around to the birth dreams? I'm guessing probably so, as we get closer to the due date. It's my first, so I don't have anything to go on yet!
I love those dreams.
: we only get one U/S at 20 so we will see!
