I’m not saying I can see the future through my dreams but I think I can speak for all the preggo moms that have the most vivid dreams and say that they feel like a little glimpse into the future.

Last night I had my first dream about my baby and all I can really remember was me holding him and he was smiling right at me and he looked like a spitting image of me. I know the science behind dreams but am simply saying that I also believe that was my baby. That was our connection.

When my mom was pregnant with me, she was in the hospital for the whole 3rd trimester. She says she was a human incubator for me. They paralyzed her because I was going to be born very premature and my mom said that she would do whatever she had to in order to keep me growing for enough time. She was depressed and cried every day but knew that she was the only reason I was still alive. She flipped through books with hundreds of girl names and had at least 50 she liked. One night she had a very vivid dream about me. She was chasing this little blonde girl through a meadow and she knew it was me but she couldn’t see my face or get me to stop running. She shouted countless names at me. MADISON, BAILEY, LEAH... She said after shouting so many names at me, I turned around and put my hand on my hip and said, “Mom, my name is Morgan!” She still remembers that dream exactly and said that I looked the same in the dream as I did when I was around 4 or 5.
