It is hard to say how many dreams are possible throughout the night. Also depends on your definition of dream.
The least amount people could say is the highest amount would probably be for like a 12 hour sleep with 8 REM cycles. They could say "8 dreams is the most"
This is wrong though... Because we dream in NREM as well. Which means that it is really impossible to tell how many dreams it could be. Would it change every NREM cycle? You could also change dreams mid REM cycle. Or if you wake up in the middle of it and go back to sleep (split the REM cycle) If you add all that into account, you could say that we dream all through the night and can have infinite number of dreams. This is all my opinion.
This is not meant to discourage, but to encourage. You can't hit a limit on dream recall unless WILD the whole night through. So you can always have a "greater goal"
On another note, 3 dreams a night very impressive! You may pat yourself on the back.

you rock. It takes most people a long time to get that high.
