A member asked:

Do you end up dreaming every time you sleep?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Very often: Most people with relatively normal sleep will dream almost every night. That said, they may not remember that they had dreams since the dreams may occur earlier in the night and not just before waking, which is when we typically remember dreams. Dreaming occurs mainly in rem sleep.
