When I was in my late twenties I started having dreams all the time about having a child. They were not happy dreams. I dreamt that I had lost the child or placed in a drawer and forgotten about it, forgot to feed it. They were very unsettling. When I became pregnant at 32 the dreams stopped. For me, raising a child was incredibly grounding and fulfilling. Not for everybody though. I felt like I knew what not to do from the experience of my own childhood. Some people, though, repeat the bad expereinces of their childhood.
