you're basically there...normally for me it happens mabye about 4 times when I'm trying to wild...I just stay relaxed and bam. I'm in there. but it's different for everyone, but for me either I go directly into the directly into the dream after those "trailer dreams", or i'll go into a normal dream with a good chance to DILD. Just keep at it man...theres really nothing I can tell you other than that. oh and that could have been a form of "hypnagogic imagery" or HI...even the sound of your insulin pump could have been hypnagogic. Sometimes I'll hear my tv turn on...open my eyes and see thats it's still off. HOpe this help. if not, the next poster will help you out.
