Hey there Static, and welcome to DreamViews!
Glad you decided to sign up -- looking forward to your contributions.
Congratulations on discovering lucid dreaming! I would have to say that your experience was not a WILD. In your case, you were already dreaming, and suddenly realized it was a dream. WILD is where you enter a lucid dream directly from a waking state, and you know it's a dream from the beginning. In your case, something in the dreams tipped you off, so you entered lucidity via a dream sign. This is essentially a DILD.
However, the vibrations you felt were undoubtedly the same ones that people get when doing a WILD -- it's just that you felt it after waking up partially instead of when going to sleep. They are part of the phenomenon know as Sleep Paralysis (SP). When you are sleeping, your brain pretty much paralyzes your body so that you do not "act out" your dreams. Usually most people are not aware of this, but If you become conscious before your body is really awake (or in the case of WILD, can allow your body to fall asleep while your mind remains conscious), then you become aware of the SP.
