Non-parents, do you ever have kids in your dreams?

I have never had a kid in any of my dreams. Since I don’t want any I’ve never thought about the fact that it’s never happened even in my dreams.

Great, now you guys put the idea in my head and who what will happen in my sleep tonight.

It’s weird, but I was thinking about this thread last night, and the fact that I didn’t have any more dreams in the same vein. Until last night! This time I had an unidentified husband and two kids about eight and five, an older dark-haired boy and another blonde daughter.

I have dreams about being pregnant or giving birth rather frequently. They are always really happy dreams because I have absolutely the most ridiculously over-the-top drive to reproduce of anyone I’ve ever met. But, also because of this, I’m always devastated when I wake up and realize I’m not really pregnant/haven’t given birth.

Recently I had one of these dreams (just a regular pregnant dream), and when I woke up and realized I wasn’t pregnant, I started having odd thoughts in my half-asleep state. I kept thinking “Well, since I’m not pregnant, maybe my husband is infertile. I’ll have to pick up one of those self-test kits at Walgreens that makes sure you have a high enough sperm count.”

Took me about ten minutes of planning my trip to Walgreens to realize that such a thing doesn’t exist.

Only in my nightmares.

I don’t recall ever having a dream where I had children.

I’ve had dreams about my girlfriends son before.
