I go through phases.. in the early stages, i couldnt sleep at all, had crazy dreams..

then i was able to sleep and had no werid dreams

then i would not be able to sleep good at all..

now due to comfort, i sleep what i consider good but i am up every 2 hrs to use the washroom... though last night i could barely sleep at all in between...

hope yours doesnt last the whole pregnancy..

Being pregnant causes a lot of crazy stuff, being able to smell better, changes your tastes sometimes (I LOVE chicken, but when I was pregnant I couldn't touch or eat it.) AND you can have some CRAZY dreams. I had HORRIBLE ones, like ones of people dying horrible. It's all part of being pregnant.

everyone is different. I slept great for the 1st 20+ weeks and now I'm lucky to have a few hours cause I can't get comfortable. I'm 30w. I'm not sure about pregnancy causing dreams tho I've never heard of it. Good luck and congrats
