I’ve read that many pregnant women have unpleasantly vivid anxiety dreams: baby is born a monster, baby has been misplaced, etc. So I realize it may cause some resentment when I say that my pregnancy dreams are that Logan (Matt Czuchry) from The Gilmore Girls is my boyfriend.
Even in the dream I’m incredulous, but what can I do? He doesn’t seem to mind the weight problem, the pregnancy, or our age/income/background difference, so why should I? It’s not always Logan; sometimes it’s Angel (David Boreanaz) from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Or Steve Burns from Blue’s Clues.
Mmm, lucky! But actually, I usually have vivid dreams too- sex dreams! No one in particular, just me, hooking up with random people! It’s like all the sex drive that disappears from my waking life during the first trimester decides to show up in my subconscious just to remind me it’s still alive and kicking somewhere beneath the exhaustion and screwed-up hormones!
