A good friend, whose wife and 3 children are still in our mother country, the Philippines, spent an evening with me one time he took a leave from his full time, stay-in work upstate. We chatted and continued chatting until we fell asleep. Very late in the evening while we must have just gone to sleep for a few hours, I sensed him jumping out so suddenly from his side of the queen size bed as if he was so shaken and afraid. In his hurry to keep distance from what was causing him grave fear, he accidentally touched my very erect penis at the time. That got him to stop as quickly as he started rushing out of the fearful situation. Of course, he was aware of what just happened. I felt awkward as I’m not used to being touched by another person in that part of my anatomy, but I didn’t ask him for details. I wanted to go back to sleep as I was working early the next day. I sensed his movement again during that evening when he had to get up and go to the bathroom to pee.

Early the next day, we chatted about his dreams. He said he dreamt about seeing snakes in his first dream. He had a second dream that night but he couldn’t recall anything about it. I was then reading the most updated happenings in my social networking sites online and took the chance to check what’s the meaning of snakes in dreams. Among many representations, I found out that snakes are symbols of transitions. I figured my friend’s been thinking about his desires to move from his present place where he stays in the city to another place, preferably with me and my other roommate. We were figuring out if this friend could stay with us. I don’t know yet the answer as I’m waiting for the response from another friend who has the lease to the apartment. Let’s see how it goes.

Do Babies Dream While Still In The Womb? October 14, 2010

Hmmm, let me say “they do!” But I can not fully attest to the truthfulness of this reply, as I can’t remember (to-date) any of my dreams when I was still in my mother‘s womb. But I know a writer who has does. He even wrote about it in one of his articles in Helium.com

The article “Why Do We Dream” is among the other 20 articles found within the same article – which has made me think about more deeply about my memories of my dreams, including those I’ve had way way back when I was still in my mother’s womb. If you have your memories of such, it will be delightful to hear of them – please feel free to share them here.

Here are excerpts for the article by Steve Marshall

Does a baby dream while still in the womb, is an interesting question indeed. When do we actually begin our dream life?

I will say here, that I think, that babies do dream, even while still in the womb.

For me personally, I have remembered a dream or two from when I was in the womb. It is unusual to recall this type of memory, but sometimes they are sort of extracted out of us by an experience such as in rebirthing. Rebirthing, is a new age breathing technique, that reconnects us to our birth experience, helping us to resolve any issues that were created for us, way back even at that early time and beginning of our life, this time around.

For example, I remembered that as a baby in the womb of my mother, my mother was dreaming of eating certain foods, especially milk, and so I also dreamed about milk, while still in her womb. This is because the baby can catch the play of it’s mothers dreaming like this, because it is still connected to her psyche. This might sound amazing and controversial, but believe me it is true.
