Hi Dreamers,

I'm not sure if this will apply to many people here but I thought I'd throw it into the open as it's a concern I've had. My wife has just given birth and I was worried that the sleepless nights would hinder my ability to become lucid, for obvious reasons. However, it seems to have actually had a positive benefit.

I resumed my lucid journey on the new year and so far I've only had a handful of lucids with a rough average of being 15 days apart. Now, baby was born on valentines day in the morning and so far I've had 2 lucids. If anything, getting up at night and staying up for an hour or so is making me indirectly do a WBTB. The downside is my dream recall has greatly suffered. This morning I had a pretty long lucid with 3 false awakenings that I recognised every time. I could have recorded this but unfortunately I didn't bring my phone downstairs with me as I didn't think (I slept on the sofa with baby next to me in her basket).

So all in all, its a bit of a double edged sword. I'm having more lucids but with limited recall. Gotta make the most of a situation though, eh?
