How many women out there have regular dreams about going into labor and giving birth?


I am in my early 30s and have three children of my own, and I regularly have dreams about going into labor. Seems the frequency has slightly decreased since the birth of my last child (she was my last one for sure), but nonetheless I am still having these dreams. I’m not worried, nor does this bother me (in general labor was a happy experience for me), but I am curious how many other women experience this on a regular basis too. Maybe I miss the pregnancy experience or I just like to go back to those experiences (not sure why these dreams happen so often)? Anybody else?

I’m 50 something and I still have them. Labor and birth were awesome experiences for me, and I suppose part of it is just reliving the peak moments of my life. But I also like to think of those dreams as representing the birth of my new self as I move into a different, more liberated, stage of life.
