Bizarre Dreams

Throughout my pregnancy, I've had very strange dreams.  I haven't been sleeping well the past few nights.  My restless legs are out of control and I can't take any meds for them until after the baby is born.  I took a Benadryl this afternoon so I could try to sleep a little.  I don't know why, but it worked.

I slept for nearly three hours.  It was good, solid sleep.  When I awoke, I had a distinct memory of this bizarre dream. I had a pet squirrel who wore clothes and she had a ponytail.

She looked a little like this:

She wanted to go out on the screened-in porch, which I don't have.  I took her ponytail down and her clothes off so that if she ended up in nature, she'd look like she fit in.  I brushed her "hair".  I had a friend with me, but I don't remember who it was.  This person snapped photos of me and my squirrel so I'd have memories as I planned to let her onto the porch.

I've heard about animal dreams during pregnancy.  I guess this means I feel like I can take care of something small and furry?
