Pregnant Pregnancy
A new area of your potential or personality developing; a deepening relationship with your potential is producing a new area of experience, talent or facet of your personality. It is still unexpressed but is developing; a new scheme or creative idea ‘hatching’.
This can point to the development of a new approach to life, a new project you are creating, a new outlet of expression, or new faculty.
If you are pregnant when you dream this, don’t be too worried by anxiety dreams about the baby. Virtually all women have them. Only get worried if they persist. A scan can quickly see if you are anxious or intuitive. See: pregnancy and dreams, and your dream baby for a longer description.
Example: ‘Last week I suddenly started having a recurring dream. In it I woke, walked downstairs, went into the kitchen and looked in the kettle. It was full of little fish.’ Karen LBC.
The fact that Karen goes ‘downstairs’, suggests the lower part of her body, and the shape of the kettle, which is a round container, make it likely this dream is about pregnancy. The little fish also points to her having conceived.
In a woman’s dream: May refer to desire for a child; fear of being pregnant – i.e. in a relationship but not wanting to be pregnant. For a woman being pregnant may depict what is resulting from a relationship with a man she has become deeply involved with. The following example illustrates this.
Example: I dreamt I was pregnant and was certain the father was a man I feel a lot of love for. However as I was dreaming I realised he had a vasectomy so couldn’t be the father. This caused me to feel great uncertainty and I was questioning who the father could be as I hadn’t been with anyone else. Also I realised the pregnancy lasted 11 months and the baby was due. Angela.
Angela felt a great connection with a man who had told her he could never be her partner, and although good friends, had pulled away from any sexual contact. This caused great confusion in Angela because she had got a lot from the relationship, shown by the pregnancy. The confusion as to who the father was probably depicts her search for a man who could help her ‘give birth’ to the new and positive direction in life that had arisen from the current but platonic relationship.

If pregnant at time of dream: Anxieties regarding pregnancy and birth – Carolyn Winget and Frederic Kapp researched on the dreams of 70 pregnant women. Those women whose dreams included a high percentage of anxiety themes were the ones who delivered their babies in the shortest time – less than ten hours. The conclusion was that by allowing feelings of anxiety in our dreams we are less influenced by anxiety in waking, and we can deal with situations more confidently.
In a man’s dream: A man who cares for his partner and children will often dream about his partners pregnancy – or even dream about himself being pregnant.
Example: Was in a basement. Brenda/Sonia was giving birth to a Baby, but I was somehow the one who gave birth to it, without a doctor being there. I remember Sonia chewed through the cord. I looked at the baby, 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!”
Here the man gave birth to a new special part of himself, aided by the love he had developed for two women – Brenda and Sonia. A man’s love develops out of his feelings for women in his life, and this was what enabled him to birth a new and special part of his potential.
Example: I went into the house. My wife screamed due to some trouble of her period. She was pregnant, and the troubles she was having were the traditional signs that she was pregnant and bearing a special child. I felt that the whole pregnancy would be difficult due to these signs of the special child, but the delivery would be easier. I didn’t feel too pleased about her having a baby, but soon adjusted to the idea.
This dream occurred about eight days after he had sex with his wife because he had dreamt a powerful spirit had spoke asking him to help form a body for it.
Pregnant without a man involved: See No Man
Someone else pregnant in dream: An aspect of oneself about to bring forth new characteristics; an intuition about that person. See: Example under girl; cave; third example under penis in body; second example under baby; birth dreams during pregnancy. See also: birth.

I am 7 months pregnant and I dreamed that I was at my mom’s house with my mom brother my baby’s dad his friend and my grandma who has passed away four years ago and it was night time and there were kids in the neighborhood walking in packs of three in all black and a set of them came to the porch while I was showing my baby’s dad a visible foot print on my stomach. When we answered the door for them they said that they wanted somebody to adopt them and as they stood there one of the three had a skeleton mask on then I woke up
I dreamed my grandma had kids and they were around 2-4 and because she couldnt feed them or support them at all she put them to worlk. I didnt like that at all, in my dream i started to cry because it just hurt to much to see them work. Also because they were little. In my dream i offered to take care of them. Two nights after i dreamed my boyfriend told me i was pregnant and i was confused and didnt know how he knew before me. He said he just knew i was and he just look so confident that i was pregnant but i was still confused
My friend tld me that she had a dream that i am pregnant and that i went to tel her i am 9 weeks pregnant and that i am so happy about it….what does that mean? me and hubby are trying to conceive
I got pregnant in feb. but the hardest part was not knowing by who… chances were one that was an ex boyfriend and the other was the guy I was in love with for the longest time. The guy that I was in love with has been there for me since the start and i hope its him. I’ve asked god to show me who it is in dreams and so far Ive only dreamt of the second guy that he was saying he was the father and grabbing my belly. He says he has also had a dream of buying a carseat pink. For the 3 months Ive been pregnant ive never dreamt of my ex. Something that is really like WOW! the day before i found out i was pregnant i was telling my friend i couldnt get pregnant for times before and that day he had put on fb that he wanted a baby……Next day out of curiosity i took it and i was….. are my dreams of what I want or what might happen?
I am pregnant and had a dream that I was at the scan where I found out the sex, I really want a girl but in the dream it was a boy and I was really upset that it was a boy. What does this mean?
This morning I dreampt my girlfriend from childhood gave birth, then became pregnant again, gave birth and became pregnant again. She was extremely happy and blissful. Loved having them. I was happy for her but a little concerned that it was too many in too short of a time. The babies looked good and happy.
Personally, I am not in a relationship nor have children.
Mel – Don’t forget that dreams do not reflect outer physical life despite people thinking they do. So your dream is about you, not your friend. To find out what aspect of you she represents see http://dreamhawk.com/dream-encyclopedia/characters-or-people-in-dreams/
The three babies probably relate to new projects of things emerging in you life. See http://dreamhawk.com/dream-dictionary/baby/ . So it is no strain to give birth to countless babies in you dreams.

Hello, I dreamed I was pregnant and due to give birth, but when I went to have the baby I realised that I was not pregnant at all and was quite upset and embarrassed about it, having thought I was.Please can you help me with understanding this dream.
Thanks, Lisa
Hi!
My partner was talking in his sleep, he was talking about a scan, I asked him what scan and he replay “his belly scan”, I asked what was wrong with his belly and he said he was pregnan, I said to him that he couldn’t be pregnan as he was a man and he replay he saw a baby boy in the scan of his belly. Told him he can’t have babies as he is a man and he said ” you will see”. Then he woke up and couldn’t remenber the dream. He told me a month ago he doesn’t want children and this makes us argue a lot. What the dream means?
Zz – In his dreams he can be pregnant. I and other men have given birth in their dream life. Have you forgotten that we are both sexes, and one is usually repressed because of our body. See http://dreamhawk.com/dream-encyclopedia/archetype-of-the-anima-jungs-view-of-the-female-in-the-male/
So please encourage him rather that put him down. The baby born is obviously a dream baby and is a new part of him trying to be born.
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.

I had a dream I was pregnant and as I was standing the baby just fell out of my womb like walking through a wall. It wasnt messy or horryfying but i held the baby upside down just staring in shock at the umbilical cord while my husband called the ambulance. Then the baby appeared with the umbilical cord cut and I think my husband did that .. then i woke up.. weird .. can anybody help me figure out this meaning..??
Hey tony, I dreamed that I was on the beach, all of a sudden I started to feel kicking and I actually felt the baby’s leg with my hand. I assumed I was close to 5 months. I had a friend with me and she was like, “Girl your pregnant”. I was scared because apparently I assumed that the father of my child would be upset about this pregnancy. What could this mean. It felt so real.
Karma – Because we are largely unaware of what goes on in us, I believe you have a very strong urge to have a baby – that is natural as a woman. Maybe it is a form of phantom pregnancy. So read http://dreamhawk.com/dream-encyclopedia/questions/#WomanCreative

My boyfriend is in prison and we have a daughter together. I have to be honest and say Ive ‘slipped’ a time or two since hes been gone. But I had a dream the other night that I found out I was pregnant by a guy I had a fling with, and really didnt want to be. I want another baby. But not with another man.
Is this my subconcious or does it mean something?
i had a dream that my cousin was pregnant. I touched her belly and it convaed inwards. It frightend me as there was quite a big bump and it felt like a deflated football. what does this mean?
I dream that I was pregnant with a baby girl and I just got back to my parent’s home with a bag of baby girl clothes. After I leave the bags in my room, I went out to the dining room and sat down. At that point I think it would have been better if I had a baby boy, and I realized then, I am indeed pregnant with a baby boy. I was excited at first then I felt scared, I was going to be a single mother. I did not dream of having sex with anyone, but i vividly remember someone I date walked out of the house. I might have made a small conversation with my mum. I looked down and stroke my stomach but there was no noticeable baby bump. I was also in my current age in the dream.
I am 21yrs old this year, and I am a female. For the reference I am a virgin. Last I’ve dated was at least 3 or 4 years ago. I was pretty scared when I woke up.
I don’t know if you can help me with this interpretation. But I really freaked out. haha.
I had a dream I was pregnant and only found out because my water had broke. I started crying because I didn’t want a baby… I felt I was still too young and want to travel and have fun, plus I was not making enough money to care for it. I decided to put the baby up for adoption, but then once the baby was born I felt very sad and didn’t want to give it away.
I looked up many different symbols for this dream but I still can’t figure out how they relate to each other.
i had a dream that i was holding a baby who was mine. he was so happy and smiling he was so cute i felt pure love for him! I am not currently pregnant but my fiance and i have been talking a lot about trying to get pregnant soon. what could this possibly mean? i woke up feeling so much joy and wanting a baby.
Lati – I believe you have opened a door in you to a wonderful flow of life. It is a divine thing to want and have a baby, so the door has opened and it will be like a support flowing through you.
It might also be that you will have a boy.
