i'm 5 weeks today. For the past week I have been having these very vivid dreams. I've been seeing color and hearing very clear sounds and voices in my dreams. They almost seem like reality! Has any one else been experiencing this???? Weird right?

I had a super vivid dream that I was pregnant with a girl and that is what sent me to the dr, and where I got positive results. I am also almost 5 weeks pregnant. I do have Lots and lots of dreams, but I wouldnt say they were incredibly vivid. But with all the hormones running through us I am sure its possible.
Are you having nausea at all....I still havnt had any...

It only gets better as you get further along!!!!! The dreams get crazier, the forgetfulness gets annoying, your husband/boyfriend will really start to get on your nerves....I swear the forgetfulness is going to be the death of me!!

That's so cool.
The only symptoms I have had is joint/ligamant pain...including back pain...oughh. And I would imagine fatigue...I was just diagnosed with Hypothyroid, so that is leaving me tired as well...so hard to say. We will see as the weeks go on.

Well, I've had some interesting dreams since I've been pregnant (I'll be 13 weeks tomorrow). They've been extremely vivid. I could have gone by how crazy my dreams had gotten instead of buying a pregnancy test.

I had one dream where I was flying on an airplane sitting next to my DH but I was completely topless, my shirt and bra were in my lap. I was self-conscious about it, but apparently not enough to put clothes on to cover myself. The stewardess just calmly went about serving the drinks and meals to me.

Then, I've had a lot of vivid erotic dreams, mostly with my DH, but sometimes not, sometimes weird kinky sex situations like 3-somes and other stuff that I would never do in real life, sometimes with other women often resulting in orgasms and waking myself up. Apparently, these sorts of dreams can be common in pregnancy, but they do make me uncomfortable, especially the dreams not involving my DH, but I guess there isn't much I can do about it except just enjoy it. These dreams seem so real that I would have sworn they had happened.

The other night, though, I had a vivid bad dream, where I was out on my grandparents farm taking care of their cows (which I never took care of cows in my life), and out in the cow-pasture, I discovered the body of a murdered teenage girl and her horse, which had also been shot and killed Sad

Pregnancy dreams have been interesting to say the least!

give it time, ladies! most people don't start getting m/s and other symptoms until between 6-8 weeks. i hope you don't get anything too bad!

oh, and regarding the vivid dreams... mine were *crazy* up until i gave birth. i would dream about people from 5th grade and stuff, it was so weird. and this may be tmi, but i found out from posting here that it's actually pretty common, in the third trimester i had orgasms in my sleep like 3 nights per week. consider that a pregnancy bonus!

I had some extremely vivid dreams during my pregnancy. They were always very detailed, usually really strange, and they would stay on my mind for days. I ended up writing most of them down and now its fun to go back and read about those weird dreams! So I definitely think a dream journal is a great idea!

Yeah I've had dreams about shotting people car accidents you name it Ive had it. It's really weird. It's nice to knoe other people are going through the same thing though. No dreams with orgasams yet although I'm sure that would be great seeing as how you wouldn't have to "work" for them. hehehe
check out my space....I'm gonna make changes as my pregnancy progesses!
