I had a dream last night, and while I don't remember it in any logical way, I remember the situation and the emotions.
I was with two ladies I know, the one who just got married (and is pregnant) and another who is getting married in May (and is not pregnant, and fights with fiance about whether they will have kids). Well, in my dream, they were both pregnant, and made some comment in a larger group of ladies about how conceiving naturally was so hard, and that people with IF troubles really don't understand how hard their experience is. Or something like that. Minimizing IF in some way. I was very upset, and ran away, only to be confronted by each of the newly-wed pregnant ladies. I started yelling at them, screaming really, and crying. And they just laughed at me, told me I was over-reacting or something else demeaning, and walked away.
Like I said, I don't really remember the details, like who said what, or what the exact words were. But I remember how it felt to be screaming/crying and feeling like a 3-year old: so frustrated, so upset, so unable to control myself. And I remember them laughing at my pain. And how that felt.
Ugh.

Oh pie, dreams can seem so real sometimes can't they? I hate that.. you wake up and you have a foggy memory of what actually happened but what really sticks with you is how it made you FEEL.
ReplyDeleteShesh, you'd think we could at least get a break from IF while we are sleeping!!!!
What a scary dream. That's the worst, when you wake up with a feeling you can't easily shake off. At least dreams like that are not reality.
ReplyDeleteI don't know any other way to reply to your comments on my posts... You are right, I did go to Madison! Class of '93. I'm guessing our time there overlapped by a couple of years. Very cool! And you were right about AF. She arrived today with a vengeance.
So sorry you had to remember such an awful dream Pie. Sending you a big hug and here's a dream story to cheer you up. Ready? I dreamed that a side effect to my pregnancy was that I got a hairy chest like my Dad and Brother. I mean, we're talking fuzzy-wuzzy-was-a-bear type of hairy. Docs told me it was a normal but unusual complication. Initially I was horrified but eventually became proud of how nice my hairy chest and belly were coming along.
