Ive been trying to LD on and off for a while but just got back into it seriously a few days ago. Last night I was dreaming and since it wasnt lucid I thought this would be a good time to try to LD. So I tried MILD and when I went to sleep the next dream was a LD. It was a pretty fun dream too, I was flying an X-Wing over NYC. Is it common for people to fall asleep in one dream, use a LDing technique while inside that dream, and then be in a lucid dream?
So are you saying you were in a dream, and you decided to try to get LD while in the dream.
You were dreaming that you were having a lucid dream. Right? 
Puzzles me for sure.
Dream of having a dream. I have never experienced that but i have heard some people have. Well congratz for the LD anyway 
hi Random Observer… Yes that is a very cool way of getting a lucid dream, and I have used WILD in my dreams a few times and it works perfectly, and it’s a lot easier to do than it is IRL. This kind of LD is most probably followed by a FA where you think you woke up from the lucid dream, but you’re really still in the first dream. So make sure you RC after every LD, and congrats on your lucid dream 
I have a semi-related question: If youre not a person in your dream (an X-Wing for example XD) how do you stablize it? You have no hands and its difficult to get an x-wing to spin in place.
Wow, unbelievable, last night I did the same. After watching for 3th time Awaking Life. I was dreaming random stuff, and then I was talking to a woman who said something about a experiment she was doing, she imagined in her left part of the brain she was very young, and with the right part she was very old, she wanted to see what could happen what side will win. Of course that is imposible, but it was kinda like the movie.
The next thing I know I was im my bed trying to sleep, and I felt how I rapidly was falling asleep, next I was talking to the same woman and I said to her: “Last night I dreamed about me and blah blah blah, and know what?, this is a dream too”. And I looked at my hands and it was obvious, I awaked 4 seconds after that couse its my 2nd time I LD.
But I think its not a valid method what random observer says, couse you must go to sleep in a ND, and they are uncontrolable, unless you use another method to try to dream about sleeping…
You had an MLD 
.
Random Observer: There are other ways to staberlise the dream.
At any rate - you don’t have to staberlise the LD. In fact, I forget too in many of my LD’s and they generally last beteen 5 and 30 minutes.
BUMMER.
I just got another “dream” dream, and I LDed, but it was not me…it was the dream me, hehe, thats a little weird. I didn’t realise it was a dream, but my dream me realised in his dream (make any sense?), and it was a stupid way of realising it’s a dream, I went under a table, and I thought it must be a dream just for that, I didnt any RC. In my dream I had 5 LDs and one FA (when I talk about me its my dream me)
It’s not very common, but it happens. I had a (normal) dream in which I tried to WILD. It worked and I became lucid.
