What Do Babies Dream About?


IMG_1299bw

Dreaming occurs during REM (rapid eye movement) sleep, and with infants spending 50 percent of their snooze time in REM, it would be a logical assumption that babies do also dream.

Do you have an idea or do you also wonder what do babies dream about?

I ask because I've encountered seeing my little Asher many times either smiling (even chuckling one time) or momentarily whimpering in the middle of his sleep at night. Often times, hubby and I would even get distracted and shifts our bedtime discussion topic to what he could have possibly dreamt of.

Presumably, they dream about infantile things or scenarios. And with my son being exclusively breastfed, this is what my husband is jokingly assuming:

When he whimpers:
He's dreaming of boobies running away from him.

When he smiles or chuckles:
He's dreaming of plenty boobies surrounding him.


Funny assumptions, huh?

So what do you think your babies are dreaming about?

I wonder the same thing. My daughter tells me sometimes that Jesus was in her dreams so you never know.

si Janna ganun din minsan ... kala nga namin gising tapos pag sinilip mo tulog naman ... siguro masaya ang panaginip ng mga bata ... sobrang inosente kasi sila.
