I hope this doesn't sound really bad but i am just wondering if this is normal. I have been having strange erotic dreams since i have been pregnant. I mean they are really graphic. My sex drive has also like doubled since i got pregnant. I have heard of a lot of women losing their sex drive but i am hormonally supercharged!!! Is this normal??

What can I do next?

Its totally normal. When I was pregnant with my daughter (age 5) it was like some kind of crazy switch had been flipped. I had never experienced anything like it, and thought I was going nuts. When I was pregnant with my son (age 3) it was the total opposite. Best of Luck!

Are you having a boy? Graphic erotic dreams are perfectly normal. I was pregnant with a boy, that unfortunatly I lost, but I had very erotic dreams while I was pregnant and my sex drive got a major boost. It wasn't like that so much with the girls. Probably the extra testostorone. It is perfectly normal. It doesn't sound bad, relax and enjoy the time with your fiance' he will appreciate the extra attention. After you have the baby you will be too tired. :)

Are you reading any pregnancy books?
The same thing happened to me with my second pregnancy, CRAZY dreams and awesome sex drive. Any pregnancy book out there will mention this. Totally normal. Enjoy it while it lasts because after baby comes sex is going to be a lost entity, at least for awhile!

Weird graphic dreams are perfectly normal. I had them nightly when I was pregnant. It's your hormones and it will go away when the baby is born. Then you will start having dreams about the baby everynight : ) Good luck with everything!

It is totally normal. When I was pregnat, my dreams were very graphic too! And soo vivid. My sex drive was also out of control! I wanted it all the time, my husband could barely keep up! This was one of the things I enjoyed most about being pregnant. I suggest enjoying it because once the baby comes, its hard to find time to be intimate! This did go away by, I think the 8th month, then I was just miserable. Kristina

I had rather strange dreams when I was pregnant, not many of them had to do with sex. Every pregnancy is different and so is every woman. It's probably just your hormones working over time.There is nothing wrong with you and don't be suprised if you just all of a sudden decide your not in the mood anymore, hormones have a strange way of working. Just look at it this way your fiance is a lucky guy,lol... I have also found that intercourse seems to be alot better, not that it isn't good to begin with, while your pregnant. at least that's how it was with my first two, this one however seems different. well congradulations and feel free to ask me anything. I'm beginning to feel like a pro at it, my third is due april first.

Yes this is normal, you are in your second trimester and you get surges of energy and your sex drive is very high. You will feel like having sex anytime or anywhere even if this is not your normal habits. It's all the hormones and changes your body is going through. But when your 3rd trimester starts it will start to slow down. ENJOY it while it lasts.

Don't worry, you are totally normal. When I was pregnant with my son I had crazy sex dreams all the time! That didn't happen when I was pregnant with my daughter, though. I read an article about having sex dreams when you're pregnant, but I can't remember what it said about why it happens. The strangest part about the dreams I had were almost all the encounters where with women and I'm straight! But it happens, so I wouldn't worry. Many women have a fantastic sex drive, too, while they're pregnant. I was not one of them, though, and my sex drive when to nothing after my kids were born. But anyway, write your dreams down in a journal. It will be funny to go back and remember them later. I just had bizarre dreams altogether when I was pregnant, not just sex dreams.

YES totally normal, I had the most vivid intense dreams when I was pregnant. I also remembered them better than I ever have since or before. The sex drive thing is way normal too. You are just one big raging hormone. Plus there is no stress on the sex, you are already pregnant so you don't have to worry about getting or not gettng pregnant. Don't worry, just enjoy it. And if you can you should write your dreams down, there might be some time when you wish you could remember, LOL ;) A.

Someone told me if your sex drive goes up during pregnancy then you're having a girl, if you have absolutely no sex drive it's a boy. Just an old wives tale, but I had a boy and it was absolutely correct with me :) Enjoy!!
