It was normal for me when I started, even now there are times when I cant remember anything. Its not the fact that you didn't dream its just the fact that your mind was on other things when you woke up or you just started going when you woke up. Even when you dont remember anything and you are first starting out write down anything, if it was just a feeling or one thing you remember. If you dont remember anything write that down and what time you went to bed and woke up. This is good to do to get in the practice of journaling.

The best thing to do is when you wake up at night and in the morning is to lay completely still and try to remember any detail whatsoever about anything that happened that night. I find myself asking what was I just doing, and once I remember something specific from the dream I start to remember details about it. If you can remember a little seed it is possible to work backwards and chain a huge dream together. Sometimes I will even remember something that happened in a dream halfway through the day that happened in a dream that night.
