About this symptom
Vivid Dreams
Many women report extra vivid dreams during early pregnancy that sometimes continue throughout the pregnancy. It is thought that the increase in hormones that are the cause for many other pregnancy symptoms are also responsible for these types of dreams. Some women report the themes of the dreams are pregnancy or baby related, while others seem to have completely unrelated focus.
Dreaming for Two: The Hidden Emotional Life of Expectant Mothers by Sindy Greenberg, Elyse Kroll, and Hillary Grill. A fascinating book that explores the fertile topic of the unconscious dreams of pregnant women.
