Hello, this is my first time posting in this forum. I'm 18 by the way.
This month I've had 2 very vivid and upsetting dreams. The kind that stay in your mind for the rest of the day. In the first, I dreamt I'd had a baby and I held her in my arms, and I felt immense joy when I looked at her. But then she died. And the rest of my dream revolved around me sobbing inconsolably. When I woke up, I felt incredibly sad and started crying, and couldn't shake the realness of the dream for the rest of the day. Reflecting on the dream, my baby could have been me as a baby. Then last night I dreamt I was pregnant - and again, felt immense happiness and joy. Then by the end of the dream I panicked and wanted the baby to die. Again, I woke up feeling incredibly sad. Any thoughts? These kind of themes seem significant. Thanks for reading

Babies generally mean something new. The fact that the baby died. may mean it wasn't to be. You seem to really want something and yet feel overwhelmed.
The second dream of having a baby and wishing it was dead, maybe means that you are scared and not ready for something new. Only the dreamer can really know what their dreams really mean. |

Life and death.
Joy and pain. Exhilaration and disappointment. Filled up with love and empty. These are the opposites that the context of your dreams make me think of. Is there something in your life that is new, but you are unsure it will last? Something that feels joyous and fills you up, but you fear it will die and leave you feeling empty? What could the new life/baby mean in your life? And the feelings around that? |

wow that's actually spot on
 What's new in my life? 2 months of falling for a friend, and yes it's been incredibly exciting but overwhelming too. She's also a woman.. so not only am I scared I'm not ready to come out, I'm scared of how she feels. Lately I've had many thoughts about just letting the whole thing die... interesting!! lol I'm quite proud of my subconscious right now  Thank you Echoes and Possum for helping me! |

I had terrible nightmares WHEN I was pregnant about losing my loved ones, sometimes to death, sometimes just not being able to find them, and also about the end of the world and things like that. I heard a lot of people have crazy dreams when they're pregnant, but these were all terrible. I think I had one or two good dreams when I was pregnant. I also had dreams before I was pregnant about babies. One I remember, the baby was laying in a bassenet in the old dining room in my mother's old place. The baby's head looked transparent, then part of it was completely clear, then I turned around, turned to look again and the whole baby disappeared. I don't know what that was all about. Just thought I'd tell you, you're not alone.
