I met my children in my dreams.

[Neville]

Has anyone else experienced this? I’m convinced that I have met my children in my dreams even before becoming pregnant. What does this mean? Any insight as to how/why this is possible?

Here are the two instances.

When I was 19, I dreamt that I was swimming in a lake I had never seen before, close to a dock on a bright, sunny day. The water was refreshing, though I can’t swim for the life of me in my waking life. On that dock stood a girl of maybe the age of 10. A near perfect copy of me with thick rimmed glasses and lips that could give Angelina Jolie a run for her money. She stood on the dock and only stared at me. Her eyes were focused, yet gentle. Unwavering.

The skies turned black. The clouds swirled, and in that lake, a water spout formed. I suddenly lost my ability to swim, but the girl saved me. She pulled me out of the water just in time before the water spout pulled me to my death. The girl never spoke.

When I was 21, almost 22, I gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. That baby girl is now a 9 year old girl who looks just like the girl in my dream. When she was 7, she picked out her first pair of glasses. Thick black and purple frames.

I left her biological father (my ex husband) when she was 4. He was very, very abusive. I won’t go into detail.

When I was 28, a few months after I remarried, I had a dream that I was exiting my home bathroom and turned to the right in a master bedroom. There stood 2 boys, about the age of 12 or 13. They only stared at me, but somehow, I knew it was just us in the house. I didn’t have my wedding ring on and there was a photo of my husband on the dresser, but looking at those boys gave me a sense of peace.

One of the boys was slightly taller and broader than the other, though both of them were built like an ox. They were nearly identical.

I remember telling my husband the next morning about the dream and he laughed and said, “No way! Nope, nope, nope! Not gonna happen!”

When I was 30, I gave birth to two healthy twin boys. They’re 15 months old now. Stout and strong, and already the size of 2 year olds wearing 3T clothing.

I should also note this: twins do not run in either of our families.

I feel so validated by this post! I have mentioned in previous posts that I’ve been told I will have a girl in the future and subsequently had dreams of said baby girl. But that she feels so detailed and specific to just be a dream. I can feel and smell her as if she is real. I was really unsure what this might mean as it felt so much more than a dream, seeing some of the replies to this post makes me feel like I’m not trying to search for something that isn’t there and this really could be something more. It’s even more special that my MIL has similar dreams! Amazing

I’ve done this as well over the last year or so. But with me I explain to them about their family. I talk about their great grandparents, their cousins and about my life.
