If you have given birth to a baby in a dream, it can represent a new phase of life; a new idea; new activity – as when we say someone has a new baby, meaning a new project or business. This ‘baby’ might be part of you that did not have a chance to be ‘born’ or express before. Or it may be things learned in a rich life that you could not put into practice because of circumstances. The baby in this aspect is the ‘you’ that could have been if you had been free from problems and past hurts.

In real life a baby is a blending of mother and father, and all they represent. A baby is a new thing that has been ‘born’ out of them and the circumstances they are involved in.

Example: My wife and I were walking out in the countryside. I looked around suddenly and saw my four year old son near a hole. He fell in and I raced back. The hole was narrow but very deep. I could see water at the bottom but no sign of my son. I didn’t know whether I could leap down and save him or whether it was too narrow. Then somehow he was out. His heart was just beating.

The dreamer had an argument with his wife the night before and was frightened it had killed his marriage. The baby son represented their marriage and his fear of the end of their life together, but the dream went on to show that it survived.

But the dream baby can also represent one’s own feeling urges at that level of development – such as possessiveness, joy, curiosity, responding to the world without words or formed concepts, innocent love, infant trauma; intense dependence; feelings of helplessness; vulnerability; lack of responsibility; and being cared for. Even as adults many of these early feeling responses still dominate the way we meet relationships and events. It is quiet common for instance for adults to feel intense and destructive jealousy about their sexual partner. This is exactly the sort of feeling we experienced naturally as a baby and child. Unfortunately in adulthood we seldom see such things as an emergence of baby feelings which we have not grown beyond. Instead we accept them as adult behaviour and justify them, often blaming our sexual partner for them – i.e. ‘You made me jealous by showing affection for that other man/woman’. The baby or child often feels murderous rage in connection with such dependence and jealousy, but it is too small to effectively act on the rage. When an adult feels such rage however, it is highly dangerous and irrational. See Beware of Love; victim; personal growth.

Aborted baby: In general something that was developing, a new facet of self, or a new opportunity that has now been lost or rejected. If in a pregnant woman’s dream, usually it is an expression of fears regarding ones ability to carry the child to full term – but it is wise to have a check. See: pregnancy.

Adult body with baby head: Suggests that the way one approaches life, ones thinking, is still immature, even though one is physically mature.

Adopted baby: Adopting a new stance in life, perhaps conceived by, or seen in someone else; taking on the responsibility of something or someone that needs care and help to grow; if you are trying to adopt a baby it would reflect feelings or intuitions about that activity.

Baby body with adult head: Suggests that while one has developed an adult intellect and rational thinking, or an adult self, aspects of ones feelings, hungers and sexuality remain at the baby level of development.

Baby Boy: If you have given birth to a baby boy, it is usually about the principle of maleness entering your life. Maleness is like the sun, it expresses most of its energy outwardly to give life. Whereas the female is like the earth, receiving and nurturing life.

Birth or emergence of a new phase of self expression in terms of activity or achievement. In a males dream may suggest a new self emerging, or new aspect of self.

Baby Girl: If you have given birth to a baby girl, it is usually about the principle of femininity. Femininity is about having the power of creating life within and nurturing its growth.

Baby Dying: The anxiety dreams include such images as giving birth to a baby who is only a few ounces in weight – the baby is malformed – the baby is born dead – the baby is blind or deaf or injured.

Castle was able to follow the dreams of over 200 pregnant women, often from about the time of conception through to their post natal situation and experience. One of his interests was to see if dreams showed signs of information about physical conditions that were not apparent at the time of the dream. He says that many dreams did in fact show that small shifts in the physical state, such as conception, were shown in appropriate symbols in the dreams of some women. So if you have a worrying dream about your baby it is worth making sure you check out its condition, something that with modern equipment is easily done. To quote Castle, “The unconscious mind of the pregnant woman seems able to monitor and detect biochemical imbalances, tissue abnormalities, or structural defects in the uterine environment and communicate an awareness of disturbed functioning through dream imagery, which is sometimes fairly literal, sometimes symbolic.”

Seeing a baby die in a dream can suggest many things. It can suggest that the most vulnerable part of you has been killed by your hidden emotions. Also I have received, over 40 years, many dreams of mothers who dreamt their baby or child was dead, and not one of them died. One woman who explored such a dream with me found that a death had taken place, represented by the child, and the death was that of her love for a man. She had ended a relationship that had lasted for years.

Dead baby: Dreaming that your child dies can have several meanings. In some dreams a parent, much to their horror dreams of killing their child. But our dream 

child can represent many things, and it is useful to realise that any person, object or scene in a dream is not a symbol – it is not dead thing that has to be interpreted – it is a living part of you and can only be understood by relating to it.

So in this way I have found that a child can represent whatever our strongest feelings about them are. It can represent your marriage or partnership because it is what you have created between you. In that case the death of the child can depict something like an awful argument that feels as if it the marriage has died.

A child and its death can also show you how you have killed out the growing or adventurous side of you; or if you see your child as vulnerable and needing protection it could show you the death of that part of your feeling.

If a dream seems to predict the death of your child, it is wise to remember two things. the first is that a said above many dreams about our baby are actually about injury or death of our vulnerable self – See Characters and People in Dreams.

That predictive dreams are very uncommon. But if you are feeling it is predictive remember that the future is not set in stone.  But you can pray for protection for your child and it can change the outcome.

 

Gifted or holy baby: Often shows the dreamer having given birth to parts of their personality which are connected with wider sympathies, or wider awareness, than their own personal ego or self. It may show an awareness of the universal processes of life. It is the same sort of meaning as Christ in symbolism. It can show the emergence of awareness of the levels of existence beyond the senses. See: esp in dreams.

Example: “Was in a basement where my wife and a woman I loved was giving birth to a baby, but I was somehow the one who gave birth to it without a doctor being there. It was a lovely boy. Its lower face was covered by a tight caul, but I pulled this off and it began to breathe. It opened its eyes and looked about, fully conscious; then said something about Jesus, and, “It is gone!” I asked what had gone, and it replied, “The other ego; where has it gone?” I explained that the spirit self it knew before birth was now gone so it could live in the body. The baby was then taken upstairs, and I felt it was a holy and wonderful baby. I was going to rest from the rigours of the birth, but on looking around saw how dusty and dirty the basement was. I began to clean it, and felt I would go upstairs and rest afterwards.”

The man who dreamt this said that he felt afterwards that at the time of the dream he had given birth to the very best of him. This became more and more obvious as years went by. Also he realised that his inner life, his unconscious, needed cleaning, and then began to go upstairs to his wider awareness. It could be helpful for you to use the following Talking As.

If you have given birth without any man involved, it suggests it is a virgin birth – i.e. no male partner was involved at the time.

Many women dream of giving birth without any man involved. Virgin birth is normal part of dreaming. It means that the woman or young girl has conceived as a process of Life. Being a virgin represents the human soul or psyche and its possibility of dropping pre-conceptions, thus attaining an inner virginity and through that being receptive to the unseen or unconscious side of self. Joseph Campbell in his book “Myths To Live By” says – “There are myths and legends of the Virgin Birth, of Incarnations, Deaths and Resurrections; Second Comings, Judgements and the rest, in all the great traditions. And since such images stem from the psyche (from you and your dreams), they refer to the psyche. They tell us of its structure, its order, and its forces, in symbolic terms.”

For instance, the story and events surrounding the virgin birth, when looked as if a dream are not about a biological miracle, but about how as ordinary people, we can drop our preconceptions, our fixed ideas and beliefs and allow an entirely new and creative impulse into our life. This truth has been so venerated that we find virgin figures all over the world such as Maya the mother of Buddha born 500 BC; the virgin mother of Osiris, and of course the story told of Mary.

Being a virgin in this case is about having a mind free from previous ‘conceptions’ and so being open to Life itself fertilising you for a new and precious thing being born. If you are not a virgin because you have had children, that is not what virgin birth is about. It is about conceiving without any mental preconceptions, having an open and receptive mind or soul. it is about a wonderful human possibility.

So the dream baby born to you in this way a wonderful creative act between you and Life. It is a new part of you that if you let it gradually grow into your waking life as a new force, a new way of feeling about life and acting. Being pregnant like that is very important. Obviously you are not going to give birth to a physical baby, but dream babies are important too.

Only a ‘virgin birth’ can bring forth the birth of an intuition, a new response to oneself and ones environment, that transforms ones life. This is a living relationship with the mystery which underlies our life. If we generate a child in this way, we are not held prisoner by habits of thought, stereotypes of behaviour, then we can begin to allow into our waking life what was previously impossible to know. This open state of mind and feelings, acts as a link between the identity or personality, and the deep unconscious life processes. This link allows a birth of realisations and inner change that brings healing and a possibility of experiencing the aspect of oneself that is our core self.

Crying baby or helpless baby: Your fundamental needs are not being, or were not in the past, met. These include basic things like feeling happy and relaxed in ones environment, feeling wanted and loved, having a sense of connection with other people. There may be something distressing you at a feeling/needing level that you are not acknowledging; a new project or aspect of self needing more care.

But it is part of inbuilt wisdom in babies to cry and act helpless of injured to get their needs or a parents love. So if you dream of such a baby it may well be showing you that you are using the same tactics to get people’s sympathy.

Example: Baby pelicans can produce a false epileptic fit; they do this because it is a way to get their parents to carry on feeding them. The alternative is that they must get off their butt and feed themselves.

Dream Baby – i.e. one you gave birth to in your dream. Dream babies are usually special and are a way that you give birth to either parts of your personality that have developed over time and  are now ‘born’. They slowly become obvious to us as new talents, a new direction, or even a new way of life.

Such babies are easy to give birth to, and usually are beautiful and speak soon.

Do I need a pregnancy test if I dream of having a baby?: If you are having unprotected regular sex or if you are trying for a baby, then yes have a test.  But if you know you had not had sex with a partner, then it is a dream baby. See all the comments and answers at the bottom of the page.

Dropping a baby: Carelessness in dealing with your basic needs, especially in relationship; mishandling an opportunity; betraying trust; feeling you have been ‘dropped’ by someone, perhaps in a relationship. It might also at times suggest a miscarriage or the lack of support in caring for a pregnancy.

Example: I turned and ran with the pram at a small boy on a tricycle who was pedalling toward me playfully. We laughingly collided. Not a bad bump, but enough to send the baby over onto the ground on its head. The baby cried but didn’t seem badly hurt. I realised it was the second time I had dropped the baby, and felt I must be more careful and responsible. We were then preparing for a storm on the ship.

It was during the past few days that my wife told me that her period was late. She thought she was pregnant. This caused an awful situation between us. I was out of work in an area that offered me no work. I suggested she had an abortion. As it turned out it was a false pregnancy. However, the damage had been done. (Apparently I had dropped the baby?)

Girl baby: Birth or emergence of new aspects of feelings and feeling relationship with others. But in a females dream may mean an emergence of a new phase or a new start in her life.

Giving birth: A healthy woman is designed by nature to create a baby.  But it is also true that at the heart of a woman’s being is the power of creation, and that creation can go in any direction – a mother, an artist, a dancer, a poet, a social worker, or even an alcoholic or drug dependent.

But in our dream world the image of your creation is usually in the form of a baby. But as you may not be pregnant you have produced an image of your creation and creativeness. It is new so you do not know what it is. That you have dreamt this at all shows you need to take note of this extraordinary creativeness and investigate it. You can do this by imagining your self as the baby –  remember that dreams are showing reflections of your own inner world so the baby is an expression of your creativity – and talk as the baby describing what it feels. Use Talking As.

If it is difficult or a C-section then you are anxious or have fears about having a baby, or else there is a history of difficulty that you need to work out. Try using Carry the Dream Forward.

That you have dreamt this at all shows you need to take note of this extraordinary creativeness and investigate it. You can do this by imagining your self as the baby –  remember that dreams are showing reflections of your own inner world so the baby is an expression of your creativity – and talk as the baby describing what it feels. Talking As

And do not dismiss this as a silly dream, such dream babies have a very real purpose and life of their own. They are your creation out of the wonderful creative process that is a woman, and your own ideals and longings. If you nurture them you will see them grow – I call the spirit children.

Happy baby: Feeling at ease with oneself and surroundings. It may be that something has happened in a relationship or environment that brings a deeper level of relaxation and sense of security.

Hitting the baby: Usually a sign of not being able to cope with ones own childhood pain, and so it ends in hitting. See: hitting.

In a man’s dream: The same as general definitions, but also may be oneself at that age; desire for parenthood; weight of responsibility; fear of inability to produce. See Man Giving Birth to Baby.

In child’s dream: Themselves at that age; feelings about a baby sibling.

In woman’s dream: The same as general definitions, but also may be oneself at that age; desire for a baby; responsibility of caring for baby; worries about having healthy baby; worries about baby’s welfare.

Losing/not finding a baby: Losing contact with or not caring for your fundamental feeling responses to life; losing an opportunity or mishandling a delicate relationship; feeling lost and abandoned in ones own child feelings.

Man giving birth to a baby: Often happens during the pregnancy of the mans partner; shows the man bringing something to birth in himself. This is usually a new understanding, or a new sympathy or viewpoint. It can show the emergence of awareness of the unconscious. See Special Baby

Neglecting or forgetting baby: Many baby dreams, as in the example at the bottom, have this theme of neglecting, or even starving the baby. This is usually because we need to take care of, or be more aware of, how much personal need we have for things like care, appreciation and love being given to us. If as a baby our need for being held and given attention were met, then we can move into the next phase of our growth. But if these needs were never met, one is often stuck emotionally at this level of development. See Beware of Love.

If you are a parent with a baby, the dream may represent natural anxieties about ones ability as a parent – i.e. the dream may reflect a fear you are not giving as much to your child as you wish, or that you find yourself wishing for a break from parenthood.

Example: ‘I have my own baby who is lying in a cot in a bedroom looking very weak and pathetic with eyes closed. I know that he or she is getting weaker and weaker through lack of food and care. In fact the baby seems to be dying. The feelings of guilt are terrible because I know it is my responsibility to do something to make it well. I keep saying to myself I must go and feed that baby – but I don’t. I just keep worrying and feeling guilty.’ J. C.

Because of circumstances we may not have been able to satisfy all our babyhood needs – we may have been weaned earlier than we wanted; our need for attention may have been unsatisfied or we felt rejected or unwanted – and these are shown as a baby in our dreams. Dreams such as the above show how we sense the need of this part of us to be cared for and nourished. If some of these earliest needs are not met in some way, the development of our enthusiasm, our pleasure and ability to be involved and self-giving, may be diminished, giving rise to dreams suggesting the need for nourishment, as above. See: baby – healing and helping; baby in my dreams.

Nursing a baby: Caring for ones own infant needs which still exist in ones adult life; giving care and love to someone who is relating to you in a baby way; wanting a baby, or needing to express the depth of your own ability to give and love.

Pregnancy – dreaming of baby during: Most women dream about their growing baby during pregnancy. These dreams are vary varied and often anxious or frightening. Such dreams are not to be taken as signs of a problem other than natural anxiety. Occasionally a pregnant woman dreams of the identity or personality of her unborn child, perhaps even before it is conceived. This can of course occur to the father too. See: pregnancy; birth dreams during pregnancy; fifth example under penis, in the body section.

Sick baby: Our babyhood experience builds the foundation of all relationship with other people and the world. If for instance we are punished for being curious, or are traumatised in our need for love and support, it will show in our adult relationships. Perhaps we will lack explorative curiosity, or avoid or have difficulties in a close relationship. The sick baby usually depicts such difficulties. Exploring our feelings in connection with the sick baby, or being the sick baby as in Gestalt dream-work, will help uncover the details and intense feelings involved in such unsatisfying emotions and habitual responses.

Starving baby: See: Neglecting or forgetting baby: above.

Twins or twin: The many polar opposites or splits in us – the split between waking consciousness and sleep or the unconscious; the split between what we want in our deepest desires, and what we can allow ourselves socially; the split caused by infant trauma; the split between our sense of eternity and the facts of physical mortality; introversion and extroversion; something of self which has got split off; the lack of balance in our being; twins can represent duality, conflict, or two sides of an issue, but also the emergence of something new, something that was denied, or born with one, but never acknowledged as part of oneself; ones unconscious relationship with another person, such as occurs in a telepathic link; separation.

Or perhaps even ‘died at birth’, or one died, leaving us feeling only half a person; the lack of balance in our being. When one of the babies died and the other survived it might be as happens often that the situation wasn’t right for one perhaps because of health issues. See Tony’s Inner Voice

When appearing with a couple: The marriage – what is created in the relationship; the life process in us based on reproduction. What you have produced and care for or neglect together

Quoted from Dreams and Dreaming, by Norman Mackenzie.

Then I went back in my mind to being two years old when I felt that a terrible thing had happened to me, the realisation that my mother had no love for me. I saw her holding a male baby and I felt in that instant that I hated males. I had just this fundamental feeling, a terrible feeling, and it grew and I became full of hate and I realised that it was directed toward the opposite sex. I felt that this had begun at an early age when I felt that my mother had given affection to the male members of the family and not myself. I was the only female. I realised that at that age she didn’t love me and I must have felt jealous of the male This grew up within me.

This graphically describes the depth of feeling we often carry from our earliest years, feelings which deeply influence our adult behaviour. In this case it made the woman’s relationships with her husband strained and tense.

Example: I have my own baby who is lying in a cot in a bedroom looking very weak and pathetic with eyes closed. I know that he or she is getting weaker and weaker through lack of food and care. In fact the baby seems to be dying. The feelings of guilt are terrible because I know it is my responsibility to do something to make it well. I keep saying to myself I must go and feed that baby – but I don’t. I just keep worrying and feeling guilty. J. C.

Because of circumstances we may not have been able to satisfy all our babyhood needs – we may have been weaned earlier than we wanted; our need for attention may have been unsatisfied or we felt rejected or unwanted – and these are shown as a baby in our dreams, as with J. C. Dreams such as the above show how we sense the need of this part of us to be cared for and nourished. If some of these earliest needs are not met in some way, the development of our enthusiasm, our pleasure and ability to be involved and self-giving, may be diminished, giving rise to dreams suggesting the need for nourishment, as above. See: baby healing and helping; baby in my dreams.

Example: I am 48, have two children in their late teens and definitely DO NOT want another baby. Nevertheless I have a recurring dream in which I am always in labour, experiencing no pain, and although there are nursing staff I am in some sort of laboratory, although everything is very pleasant. I never actually give birth and when I wake I always have a vague feeling of disappointment. V. I.

This dreamers conscious decision to have no more children may be in conflict with her biological urge for another baby. But the dream might also suggest there is something she deeply want to give birth to in her life but has not yet achieved. Her creativity did not end with her children, there is still more for her to bring out of herself in some way.

Example: My mouth was full of what looked like liver. It was also coming out of my left ear. When I turned away from the mirror I saw medical people in caps and gowns who kept telling me to bear down. I then gave birth to a baby out of my mouth. I am an invalid and very sick at present. Mr. M. S.

This mans dream is about preparation for death. The baby is the extraction of all that can live on after his present life is left behind in death. See: death – is there life afterwards.

I dreamed of a baby girl and her head was almost decapitated. I took her from my husband and said that I would take care of her so he wouldn’t get locked up all the time keeping the baby propped up so her head wouldn’t fall off. What does this mean?

    -Tony Crisp 2012-06-08 12:32:01

    Mal – Well, it suggests that as a baby you were held back so that your full potential couldn’t express. Fortunately you have taken over the job of caring for that young part of you, and so you should see improvement as you flower.

Last night I dreamed that I was leaving the hospital with a newborn baby girl. I didn’t even know I was pregnant nor did I go through the labor and delivery part. The dream just simply started from me getting dressed to leave the hospital and my left breast began to hurt badly then it began to leak milk and I started to place a breast pad in my bra to stop the leakage. Afterwards, my boyfriend and I left the hospital and I could see the baby very clearly, she resembled him undeniably and even had his exact skin complexion and I could see inside her nose and feel her head full of curly hair. The dream seemed so real that I was still n shock when I awoke. All of my family and friends keep dreaming of me having a baby but I had a tubal ligation 5yrs ago, so what does this dream mean?

    -Tony Crisp 2012-06-06 10:06:06

    Latricia – Whatever we do to ourselves it doesn’t stop the life process in us trying to fulfil itself. As I say in ‘Baby’ – A healthy woman is designed by nature to create a baby. But it is also true that at the heart of a woman’s being is the power of creation, and that creation can go in any direction – a mother, an artist, a dancer, a poet, a social worker, or even an alcoholic or drug dependent.

    So the creative heart of you is producing a dream baby, so do not be shocked. A dream baby is a gift your mind and you can work with, so what do you want that baby to be. Or more to the point, what direction do you want that creative process to go? Do you want to frustrate the natural creativity in you, or do you want to cherish and allow it to grow?

Lately, I’ve been having dreams about giving birth to a girl and in the dream, it goes from finding out I’m pregnant, straight to the birth (100% natural birth with a midwife at home) and then I find out its a girl. Next, I am caring for her and breast feeding the baby. The entire time I am so extreemely happy and scared and excited all at once. Mostly happy. My husband is in the dream throughout – equally happy. Also helping care for the baby. Every time I have this dream, the baby’s face gets more and more clear. She looks like a mix of my husband and me. But her hair changes from the same color as his, to the same as mine.

This last month, we’ve decided to start trying to conceive. Is this reaccuring dream because of my feelings about trying to start a family? Or is it a premonition of what might happen in the future? Or is it telling me I am pregnant (very possible).

-Michelle 2012-06-01 13:43:18

I had a dream here recently, I was with family and friends but i was a tad bit older and I had a child she was maybe 3 or 4. She was like mommy “he’s looking at me”. But nothing was there we all were in a house like the one i am in now im 20 years and live with my grandmother and mom, and my High School love, but we are not together. But in my dream my daughter was scared. In the dream was My bestfriend who i love Dillion, Justin my first love , my grandmother, and mom. All was beheaded except me and my child. It was a weird dream but it started with my daughter saying a man is looking at her and getting closer, but the house was similar to the one I am in now but it was 2 story in my dream with alot of stairs and it was Dark and Haunted it seem. But the house seemed angry i just know After everyone was beheaded within seconds I was cryin and something appeared in front of me and it was laughing and I woke up.
Remember I am 20 and I do not have kids yet, but i am also torn between Dillion and Justin.

Can anyone explain or help me on this dream?

    -Tony Crisp 2012-06-04 12:25:51

    Michelle – The dream starts with you trying to look ahead in your life, when you have a child. But I can’t see the dream as prophetic, just a way of your trying to imagine what it would be like. And you have an awful imagination in which you see yourself completely independent and haunted by regrets.

    This is not a good way to start a young life, torn between two lovers, and so imagining what you do. Try getting back into the dream in imagination and having the courage to face the thing laughing at you. Dreams are like computer games – it is all virtual reality and there is nothing there except your own fears. As you get past the tests in that game of life you can go on. So face the thing you fear and also imagine a different end that satisfies you. See http://dreamhawk.com/dream-encyclopedia/peer-dream-group/

    -Tony Crisp 2012-06-04 10:52:39

    Sylvia – I think this about how you feel about all the forgotten or deserted babies you see around you. They are not yours, but OMG it is heartbreaking.

    It’s a lot to take on.

    Leah – What ‘monster’ have you met recently or in the past that you feel has pushed you into bad feelings about motherhood?

    Or is it your own feelings about men? In any case you are doing a good job sorting it out, so the feelings are getting better.

I had a dream i walked into the hospital whith my big pregnant belly. I didnt dream of the birth but after i was holding her. They told me it was a girl. I was waiting for my boyfriend to get there because he couldnt make it to the hospital in time.

We have been trying for almost two years so it makes me happy to have dreams about me having a baby.

What does my dream mean?

    -Tony Crisp 2012-06-01 10:03:14

    Jessica – It sounds like your inner dream life is trying all it can to make it real for you. Sometimes such a dream can mean that it is going out happen – but only sometimes.

    But because you have been trying I would suggest you take a 500mlg tablet of vitamin C, 400mlg of Vitamin E and a good multi vitamin and mineral tablet each day. Most people eat white flour food, white rice and also white sugar, which it is known is not good becoming pregnant or for baby, so they may lack sufficient vitamin B, E and C, and these are vital for the enormous nutritional demands of a baby.

    -Tony Crisp 2012-05-31 9:57:00

    Joy – To really give a reply I need more description. Was it healthy? Was it an easy birth? Where you alone as you gave birth? Was any man involved or was it purely your own?

I gave birth to a baby girl exactly one week ago at 21 weeks gestational age…she only lived for 3 hours. Now me and my significant other are eager to try again but we must wait months for my body to heal. Last night i dreamed that i was in a hospital holding this big healthy, happy baby girl. She wouldnt stop smiling and even now im sitting here wishing i had that baby to hold. What does this mean?

    Erika – It means you are a lovely woman and a loving mother to be.

    The dream spells out that you will have another baby – a healthy one.

    I would suggest you take a 500mlg tablet of vitamin C, 400mlg of Vitamin E and a good multi vitamin and mineral tablet each day. Most people eat white flour food, white rice and also white sugar, which it is known is not good for baby, so they may lack sufficient vitamin B, E and C, and these are vital for the enormous nutritional demands of a baby.

I had a dream about giving birth in this creepy bathroom stall, I didn’t know I was pregnant and delivered in the toilet. I was too horrified to look at it after I seen it was still in the placenta. I fell on the floor and laied there until someone came into my cries. Before I woke up I remember her saying that I can feel a heart beat, it’s weak but there. She said it was 3 pounds 8 ounces (how she knew I don’t know) And I started crying hoping this baby would live. I just stayed on the floor covered in blood.
Any ideas what it means?

I should start by saying, I am not pregnant and 2 years ago while having a c-section I had a tubal ligation that I regret! Last night I dreamed that I gave birth to a beautiful baby girl but she died before I got to bring her home from the hospital! This dream has me puzzled. What could it mean?

    -Tony Crisp 2012-05-24 12:45:47

    Nicole – I think that your dream has come about through your desire to be a mother again, andalso the feeling of regret about the ligation. Please see and read http://dreamhawk.com/dream-dictionary/baby/#Giving birth

    It shows how it is innate in women to dream of being creative and giving birth in their dreams. So I believe that if you can forgive yourself for having a tubal ligation you will dream of have a beautiful baby. And such a baby is not a fantasy, but a creation of a part of you that is only now becoming real in your life.

I don’t remember exactly how it started but in my dream I was in an unfamiliar setting and a woman who resembles someone I know found out she was pregnant. During her pregnancy she fell flat on her stomach. The dream skips of her giving me a duffle bag with the baby in it to hold. The baby is beautiful wrapped as if she was just born and in the hospital and was in a black duffle bag along with other things. There was another instence when she was going to give me the duffle bag but this time there was nothing in it. Then the dream skips again where we are in a hospital and she can’t find the baby and she believes the father took it. I help her search for the baby and find it in a hotel room on the bed wrapped in a blanket just like a newborn in a hospital would be. She wasn’t crying but I picked her up with excitement that I found er and started kissing her, unwrapped her and she grabbed my finger with her tiny hand started sucking my finger like a pacefyer. I pulled back because I felt my hands weren’t clean and looked for formula and a bottle. The woman (mother) showed up but with no interest in taking care of the baby or helping me do so. She was just standing there with another woman I didn’t recognize or really see. My plan was to get the formula and feed the baby while I changed her diaper. I found the formula but no instructions, the mother still not willing to help. As I was holding the baby it turned into a cat I put it down and it rushed to the litter box as I was leaving. (side note I was slightly awake at this time and I have 2 cats) I went to this lavish elevator and went to te basement where I wa told the instructions and formula was. Before I got off the elevator or to my destination I woke up.

    CJ – Your dream is about a new and vulnerable part of you that needs care and attention. The baby is in you like a new interest that could easily be ignored and so would die out.

    The woman who gave birth to the baby is another side of you that is not interested and so neglects to notice what is obviously important to the caring side of you. We usually have two or more takes on each thing we experience, and so the dream shows this in the action of the dream.

    The baby turned into a cat because you feel a lot of care for your cats, and our dreams often show the source of your feelings. Then you went down into the basement – into you inner self which is usually unconscious – and you got instruction how to care for the new part of you. It will probably been felt as an intuition or persistent feeling.

I keep having strange dreams. I had a dream where I was pregnant and all I could see where the cells dividing. 2 nights ago I had a dream where wolves where waiting for me and I had to pretend I was a kangaroo…bizarre I know! Anyway I was me again and the wolves started attacking me. Last night I had a dream where I gave birth to a baby boy but did not know I was even pregnant (in my dream). My husband and I were panicking as we had no cot etc and could not think of a name. This one is a recurring dream. I always never know that I am pregnant and just happen to give birth and always panic in my dream because I am not organised. I have lots of weird dreams but these three are particularly strange. I sometimes dream about people who have passed and they visit me in my dreams.

I dreamt that i saw my sister’s baby almost falling off the edge of the bed. I grabbed the baby girl and turned her over with milk running out of her mouth and nose. As i held the baby i could feel that the baby had liver, kidney and alot of medical problems. As I was praying over the baby she became well and my sister wanted me to raise her. What does this mean?

    -Tony Crisp 2012-05-20 8:50:36

    Bridgette – I have the feelings that you are well experienced with healing and praying for people. So your dream may be taken as a statement that the baby needs your prayers for its health. Also the part about your sister wanting you to raise her probably means that you should continue your efforts to pray for her and to maintain a contact with the child and allow your influence to enter her life. I also see it as a probability that she was born into your family so she would receive your influence.

Hi, I had this dream last night and unlike most of my dreams, I couldn’t shake it. i met this guy that I had never met before, he didn’t seem familiar or anything. The only thing that i knew about him was that his name was Nick and he was pretty much the opposite of me. I am someone that is shy, quiet, in smoe people’s minds, innocent, and i never do anything to get me i major trouble. And he was the total opposite, he wore black combat boots and black, but was really nice in the dream. What does it mean?

    -Tony Crisp 2012-05-17 10:59:57

    Jocelyn – This is called compensatory dream. As you say the guy was the total opposite, compensating for all the things you are not. Also he is male – the opposite.

    So I suggest getting to know him. Not that you have to be like him, but it can be a two way thing, because you are compensating for the things he is not also.

    So try this and see if you can get to know him, and him you – http://dreamhawk.com/dream-encyclopedia/what-we-need-to-remember-about-dreaming/
