Daughter's Experience

[mkf723]

As soon as my daughter could formulate sentences just before she turned two, she occasionally mentioned some strange things such as, “the place where people waited to be born” and that she had a pick-up truck and a cat in another lifetime. When she was three, my mother visited and being a staunch Christian woman, was appalled at her words. She instructed my daughter never to speak about those things again. My mother passed away several years ago, and my daughter was the last family member that evening in the hospital to see her alive - my daughter read religious material to her a few hours before she died.

Last November, a few days before traveling to my daughter’s for Thanksgiving I had an odd dream about my mother. I was in a room facing a bed under a window, and there was a baby lying on the bed. I realized the baby was my mother, and I conversed with the baby as if it was my mother. After a minute or two, the door behind me opened, my daughter entered the room and my mother (the baby) acknowledged her and spoke her name. That’s all I remember about the dream.

When we visited at Thanksgiving I said nothing about the dream even when my daughter confided that she and her husband were trying to get pregnant. A few weeks later my daughter called and told me she WAS pregnant and she'd calculated the time she got pregnant as the week before Thanksgiving. I have yet to mention anything about the dream to her. Her baby is due in August...it's a little boy...but I do wonder??

Hi mkf723,


Welcome to the forum. What a great story, thanks for sharing it :thumbsup: It's not uncommon for loved ones to communicate their intentions with us before they are born, there are a few cases like yours here in the forum. It certainly sounds like there was some pre-birth communication going on with your mother in your dream, but who knows?

Congratulations on your Grandson's imminent arrival by the way, keep an eye and an ear open as he grows older, and it's nice to know that you'll be a bit more open minded and understanding with him about his past lives than your mother was with your daughter : angel It's good that he'll have someone to talk to if he does remember, a lot of children's past life memories are often dismissed by their parents as the result of an overactive imagination, which is a pity.

Hi Mkf! Welcome to the Forum!


Congratulations on your new family member!


I agree with Chris - yours does seem to be a case of pre-birth communication, IMO. I loved reading your post, and for some reason I feel that your daughter's presence in those moments before your mother passed away must have given her soul a lot of comfort and love.


It is exciting, and in your case I would wonder too. Well, I wish that little boy a very happy life!


Does your daughter ever talk about reincarnation at all? Please feel free to share your feelings with us, we're all ears!

Chris and W.A.,


Thanks for your responses. I've kept the dream to myself - not told anyone until now and it's nice to have some feedback.


My daughter doesn't have strong feelings either way about reincarnation. I've told her stories of things she said as a child and I believe she just considers it to be an odd curiosity. However, there's no doubt that because of her experience as a child she'll really take notice if any of her children do the same.


I was raised in a strict Christian home, but when I was young had strange dreams and vague memories of places I'd never seen before...thus, my interest in reincarnation. I haven't read any of Carol's books but fully intend to.


It'll be interesting to watch my grandson grow up. I may share my dream with my daughter at some point, but not for awhile.


Again....thanks for your comments!

My grandson


Hello, I'm back with a couple stories. My grandson was born on Aug. 11, 2009, a healthy little boy. He's a bright, energetic, somewhat demanding child, very loving and lovable. I live a state away, but manage to see the family every few weeks. He seems to have a special attachment to me and when I'm around only wants me to hold him, crying when that doesn't happen.


Last week my father (my mother's husband of over 50 years) passed away after many years of sickness due to disease and Alzheimers. We had a beautiful graveside service and my daughter and her family were in attendance. Just before the service as I went to sit in front of the casket, my grandson (now 13 mos.) who was in his dad's arms leaned toward me and cried to be held. I took him, sat down and he clung to me with his head on my chest. He stayed in that position very quietly, not moving a muscle for most of the service, even though he was wide awake. My daughter was astounded saying being such an active child he NEVER sits still for more than a few seconds. I have to believe he was offering comfort or at least sharing this solemn time with me.


Previous to his death last week, there was one other time my father was a death's door, but at that time did not proceed through. Over a year ago they called in the family and said he's dying.....it was the day before my grandson was born. I always wonder if there was a connection.


I've told my sister of my dream, and recently a friend from overseas who is knowledgeable about reincarnation. If and when the time is right, I'll tell my daughter. My overseas friend had some good advice....he said, don't think of him as your mother, but live with him as who he is now. That is exactly, of course, how I treat him, as my grandson, but still it's nice to think what may be.


Thanks for listening!

Hello mkf723. I am sorry for the loss of your father.


I found it heart warming to hear of the grandson's demeanor during the service. I wonder what you were thinking during this time? It sounds as though you have a nice family and a good relationship with your daughter and her family. I am happy for you.


Has your daughter mentioned that she and her husband are trying for another baby?

I'm so sorry for your lost and wish your family well.


Your Grandson is 13 months now and will be talking soon. I look forward to your updates on all the interesting things he will say! This is the most exciting time to be around children. Please keep us informed.
