I'm sure that's a new record for me. you can read about them in my journal. I didn't do anything unusual, I wasn't even really trying hard to remember dreams.

5 for me, that was after 3 days of trying too so I was quite happy, I'm hoping to get to 7 or 8 one day.
the most i remembered one night was 8 or 9 but half of them were really short like less than a minute long
anyways congrats on remembering so many

You probley were remembering dreamlets that are some how connected to 2-3 dreams.
But I've remembered 5 dreams, and I've seen people say they've remembered 6 or 7 a night :?Quote:

It's quite impossisble to have an actual limit to the number of dreams we have per night. You could show some proof of this bold statement, but then we could post testaments of people having more than your "2-31/2 dreams a night" so it really doesnt matter: we all know that one can have as many dreams as one can remember.Quote:

What exactly is considered "one" dream?
one dream is a seperate session of dream sleep that lasts for about 3-5minutes......ex: after 90minutes u will have "1" dream.
No, so you're saying that its 3 1/2 REM periods. You're not saying that's 3 1/2 dreams. As Alucinor Architecton said, we also dream in NREM stages. And, if you had even read the main page, you can have multiple dreams during one REM stage. Lets say if you remembered 8 dreams (a heck of a lot) they could've been in only one or two REM periods, or they could've stretched out for the rest.
So if you're going to say you did your homework, make sure you read the actual site your posting on ok :wink:
I've remebered 5 medium long dreams... my recalls not that good though.
I have trouble seperating my dreams one from another. I'll be trying to record my dream, then I'll remember something that happened earlier but I don't know if it the same dream or even the same REM cycle. And dreams from different REM cycles seem to be connected a lot of times.
Oh well I'm glad if I can remember two or three good fragments. There are always parts that I lose. I feel them slipping away even as I am trying to remember.
unless you have a dream that you are having more dreams, or the scenaroes switch so quickly that you have no idea that it is the same dream...because i have had about 5 lucids in about 15 minutes 1 after the other, this was because i tried entering other peoples dreams dressed as freddy krueger, so each time the scenerio switched so did the dream...but i still kept consciousness and lucidity...(oh yeah to get the record straight, none of the shared dreams worked...)Quote:
