What's in a dream? During pregnancy, a lot!
I have been having the weirdest dreams imaginable....so weird that when I told Michael about one of them he responded, "Um yeah, you probably should not tell anyone else about that!" I was so curious about my dreams that I did a little searching online. What is so ironic and funny about all of this is how true it all is - pregnancy really does affect your dreams! I found a link to: 2nd trimester dreams... Here is what it had to say:
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.
I had the most peculiar dream about a dog the other night...per Michael's request I will not be sharing...so you'll have to take our word for it!!! After reading the above let's just say I am feeling much better about myself - I was a little worried and beginning to think I was losing my mind ;)

Just goes to show you how powerful those pregnancy hormones are. It's all just so crazy!! Really, there's no other way to describe it than a total miracle. I mean, you are growing another human being. It's just insane when you stop to think about it. :)
You will have to tell me more about the dream when I see you "soon" Love Mom.
