My husband's cousin's wife had to have surgery to repair varicose veins in her legs. She had just had a baby, and was still in the hospital after the birth. Her physician was planning to tie her tubes the next morning so he could later perform surgery to take care of some serious varicose veins she was suffering from. The cousin had just visited his wife in the hospital and was on his way home to take care of their other children, when he heard a child's voice say to him -- "Daddy, don't leave me here!" He realized that it was the voice of a child that was to come to their home, so he turned the car around and went back to the hospital to tell his wife that the surgery to tie her tubses as well as the varicose vein surgery would have to be postponed so this child could come to their home. That is what they did, and after their next child was born, both then felt the time was right for her to have both surgeries.

- I was introduced to Sarah Hinze by my niece some years ago, and she gave me a copy of her book, WE LIVED IN HEAVEN. I have not had such an experience myself, but do believe those in tune can surely have thee experiences.

My daughter in law thought her family was done after they had 5 children. But then she dreamed of a little boys who said he would be part of her family and his name was Caleb. Her husband agreed they should have one more child. Caleb is now 2 years-old.

My brother was married at 17, and for this reason he and his wife were living in our parents home with the rest of our eight-member nuclear family. One night, about six month's into my sister-in-law's pregnancy, I received a visitation from my unborn nephew. I was sitting on the floor in front of the TV, and I felt a strong presence behind me looking over my left shoulder. I turned around, but I did not see anyone. But I still felt very strongly the presence of a boy, and I knew he was here to see his future home and the family he was coming to live with. I wrote this experience down in my journal, but I never told anybody in my family about it. I think this is the first time I have ever related it in a public forum. It happened about 40 years ago, but I still remember it clearly. I never told my nephew about it either, having lost contact with him after he and his mother moved away a few years later.

I, too, had experiences, but never heard of others having the same. I am glad the stories of mother’s are being told. It is time!

After my oldest son and his wife were married, I had a very vivid dream in which I was sitting on a stone wall in a meadow. I looked up and two little boys approached me--one maybe 5 years old, holding the other's hand, 3 or so, and leading him to me. The older had dark hair and eyes, the younger was fair with blue eyes. I instantly knew who they were, and I was filled with joy. The older said "Hi Nana!", and then they turned and ran away. They are here now--and both 100% the same as in my dream. Their parents were so amazed when I described both these precious boys years before we saw them!

Our daughter saw three of her four children before they were born. She has since seen the son in the exact moment at which she saw him in vision. The two daughters are still not old enough for her to see them in life as she saw them in her visions.

Thank you for your comment on your personal adoption. Announcing dreams are also prevalent when it comes to adoption. I have several stories of adoption in my book The Announcing Dream. In some cases the circumstances surrounding how to find the adopted child are given in the dream. It is miraculous. If possible, I would love to have your story for my new book. [email protected].

My husband and I were in the process of deciding whether or not to adopt, as we could not have children by birth. I was ready and filled o ut my paperwork, but my husband had some misgivings about parts of the application process, and we put it on hold for a while Then one day he had this special experience: our future son spoke to him (I don't know if he saw him or not) and said something like this: "Please finish the application, I am going to be your son, you need to get ready." (He died 13 years ago, so I couldn't ask him!) We subsequently finished the application and then a couple of years later we moved from west Los Angeles to Pleasant Grove, Utah, transferring our paperwork to the LDS Social Services in Salt Lake City. We waited two more years for the letter saying we could expect a phone call in the near future. Then my husband got the phone call (he worked in Salt Lake) and finally got hold of me at BYU where I was attending Women's Conference. I hurried and went to the car, stopping at home to get the baby clothes we had for him (they don't provide those!) and drove to the LDS Social Services office where I met my husband. The moment he was placed in our arms, I received a witness that he was our son, and that has been confirmed many times over these past 43 years. We were able to get a beautiful daughter six years after that, and I received a similar witness that she was truly meant to be in our family.

I had this experience with our grandson. We had two sons, and for six years off and on I had recurring dreams of a dark-haired, dark eyed boy. I saw him at various age, usually in infancy. Our boys were blonde and blue-eyed though on my husband's side there seemed to be possibly some Native american dna. I kept thinking I was dreaming about a child I would have. I started the dreams in my mid 30's and into my first year of being 40, so I began think I was going to have a "change of life" baby. In the dream I was always about to leave the child and would go into a panic suddenly remembering him. I would continue to panic in my dreams as I did not have formula, food or diapers! Sadly, our oldest son had a teenage romance that resulted in the birth of a child, a son. The mother was (or looked) part Indian or Hispanic, and as soon as I found out she was pregnant, I knew this was to be the child of my dreams. Her family did not want to support her in this, and we did. Before the baby, a dark-eyed, dark-haired, even somewhat dark-skinned boy, was two, his mother ran off to another state and left him with us. We helped our son, who was a devoted young father, get permanent full custody. We have raised him since then, since birth really. There is no doubt the Lord was preparing me for this amazing child who has blessed our lives.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you for this article!!! I am so glad to know about this book and how many times visions of unborn children really happen to others. It has also happened to me. I am a single woman and past menopause, but, I too, have had these experiences. I have know for years that a angel son is out there and that a angel daughter is out there somewhere, too, helping me. Just a few weeks ago, my son to be helped me find a name. I did not choose his name, HE did! Whether I will be blessed to have children at an old age in this life, have them through adoption, or if I will have them in the next, I know they are there, watching and helping me, and they are mine to raise when the time comes!

This also happens with non-biological children. I had the vision of a child that was to come to us through adoption...I thought he was going to be our child through IVF treatments that we were going through, so when those failed, it made me very confused. When I met our son for the first time, I finally understood that the little boy sitting on someone else's lap was the boy destined to be ours!
HalJune 3, 2019
Thank you for this beautiful and moving article. In addition to spiritual experiences involving our biological children, we have had similar experiences with our adopted children that convinced us that, although they were brought into this world by another mother, these precious spirits were meant to be a part of our family.
