9/27 Conception Dreams

Talk about your conception dream in detail.

My mother is sitting down and watching TV with my older sister.

My sister is sitting on her lap. Out of nowhere, a small black pig walks toward them on is's two feet.
* on one's lap: 무릎에
ex> Don't put that on your lap.
* out of nowhere: 갑자기
ex> A cyclist came out of nowhere.
* walk toward: ~로 걸어가다

It tries to sit on my mother's lap. Although she tries to push the pig away, it eventually sits on her lap.
* push away: 밀어내다, 몰아내다
ex> Although he was tired, he continued running.

What am I talking about? It was a dream my mother had when she became pregnant with me.
ex> She became pregnant with twins.

She believed that the dream foretold the conception of a child and of course in this case, me.
* foretell: 예견하다, 예언하다
ex> Fortune tellers claim they can foretell your future.

In Korea, conception dreams are called tae-mong. Tae-mong is usually dreamt by the soon-to-be mother or people close to her.
* soon-to-be: 곧 ~가 될
ex> She is my soon-to-be wife.

So, what was your tae-mong?
