It may feel that way, especially if you remember your previous dream while also in the midst of a false awakening, but you really are dreaming one dream at a time, and your current dream has the same status as the previous one, even if you feel like your dreaming body went to sleep and started its own dreaming process.
Dream characters do not dream, and Inception was just a movie. We really do dream one dream at a time, they are all encased equally in our physical brains, and, because DC's do not have physical brains, they cannot produce their own dreams.
I'm sure this post is going to go over real well here, but I felt this needed saying. FA's and memory offering up the feeling that your current dream is within another might have their purposes, but try to understand that these things are feelings and imagery; there really are no dreams within dreams.
