Dreams explained

I have had some extra crazy dreams during the pregnancy so far. I wrote a while back about having two dreams where the "baby" turned out to be a puppy... and I felt pretty silly about sharing that until I read this dreams article from www.babycenter.com:

During the second trimester, a pregnant woman's dreams contain animals that are more baby-like, such as pups, chicks, and kittens. Depending upon her attitude toward the pregnancy, her mate, and her situation, the animal may be either threatening or lovable.
The presence of friendly animals — rare and charming creatures in dreams — is generally thought to represent a good relationship between the dreamer and his or her instincts. In the dreams of many pregnant women, animals are frequently cuddly and cute. You may find that the animals in your dreams develop from sea creature to land mammal, repeating the journey of primeval ancestors; at other times you may find you dream of your unborn child directly. Your feeling about the animal or baby reveals something about your attitude at the time of the dream.


So I guess I'm normal — even if my dreams don't seem like it!
