I had a dream I had a baby

I thought i was done having kids. but i had a dream i had a baby boy. Could this be a premonition of something to come? Perhaps it was mentioned and somehow buried itself in my head then appeared in a dream.

maybe...although it's probably more symbolic, and relating to you specifically.

To see a baby in your dream, signifies innocence, warmth and new beginnings. Babies symbolize something in your own inner nature that is pure, vulnerable, helpless and/or uncorrupted. If you find a baby in your dream, then it suggests that you have acknowledged your hidden potential. If you dream that you forgot you had a baby, then it suggests that you are trying hide your own vulnerabilities; you do not want to let others know of your weaknesses. Alternatively, forgetting about a baby, represents an aspect of yourself that you have abandoned or put aside due to life's changing circumstances. The dream may serve as a reminder that it is time for you to pick up that old interest, hobby, or project again.

If you dream that you are on your way to the hospital to have a baby, then it signifies your issues of dependency and your desires to be completely cared for. Perhaps you are trying to get out of some responsibility. If you are pregnant in real life, then a more direct interpretation may simply mean that you are experiencing some anxieties of making it to the hospital when the time comes.

To dream of a crying baby, symbolizes a part of yourself that is deprived of attention and needs to be nurtured. Alternatively, it represents your unfulfilled goals and a sense of lacking in your life. If you dream that a baby is neglected, then it suggests that you are not paying enough attention to yourself. You are not utilizing your full potential. Alternatively, this dream could represent your fears about your own children and your ability to protect and to provide for them.

To dream about a starving baby, represents your dependence on others. You are experiencing some deficiency in your life that needs immediate attention and gratification.

To dream that a baby is walking or dancing, refers to the potential and possibilities that life has in stored for you. The future looks bright. The dream may also be a metaphor that you need to take baby steps in your relationship, toward your goal, in a work project or whatever undertaking. If you have a baby in real life, then the dream is a reflection of your hopes for that baby.

To dream of an extremely small baby, symbolizes your helplessness and your fears of letting others become aware of your vulnerabilities and incompetence. You may be afraid to ask for help and as a result tend to take matters into your own hands.

and then there are other baby related symbols, i don't know if you dreamt of any of them...but it's helpful for gaining a wider picture:

Baby Bottle

To see a baby bottle in your dream, represents your issues of dependency. You are relying too much on others. If you are drinking from a baby bottle, then the dream means that you need are emotionally immature. You need to grow up.

Baby Carriage

To see a baby carriage in your dream, symbolizes your desire for a family or longing for a baby. If the baby carriage is empty, then it indicates sadness or an unfulfilled goal. Alternatively, it suggests that you need to cater to the needs of your own inner child.

Baby Clothes

To see baby clothes in your dream, suggests that you are expressing yourself in a more subtle way. Alternatively, baby clothes represent your former ways of thinking or old habits which you have outgrown.

Baby Food

To see or feed baby food in your dream, indicates that nurturance and care is needed in a waking situation. Alternatively, the dream may be a metaphor to indicate that you need to eat smaller portions of food.

To eat or dream that you are being fed baby food, indicates that you are being forced to re-learn something that you already know.

of course, your dream could just be a subconscious relaying of conversations or thoughts when awake, like you said. usually symbols in a dream aren't literal...it's worth looking into the breakdown, seeking out the subconscious symbols/messages.

just to say, my dreams have always been quite prophetic...but never so much as this year. i've been keeping a dream journal and dreams i've had months ago, and all the themes have predicted circumstances which have come to light whether it's days, weeks or a couple of months later.

It's funny. I remember distinctively holding the baby over my shoulder and he was slobbering over it, lol.

I had yet another dream of a baby! In the dream his name was Casey. He had blonde hair and blue eyes. Strange.....

Some psychic told me i would find the answers in seeking in my dreams. To pay attention to them. I have no idea what the baby has to do with anything.

This is still somewhat on topic ... i had a dream my girlfriend told me she was pregnant last night .... What about that —

not much, unless you actually saw her pregnant in your dream. it could have more to do with any anxieties you might have regarding the relationship.

because dreaming is about your subconscious, conversations in them don't mean much on a surface level. that goes for images too actually...because we are overloaded with sensory input all throughout the day, when we sleep our mind tries to make sense of this information without direct input from us. so it's a time when we are more receptive to messages from our subconscious.

it's more about looking at the implied meaning of what's being said by your gf in the dream...how would you feel if this conversation happened in real life? are things good between you, i.e do you have any hidden fears/doubts? your dream could be bringing these issues to your attention.

All i remember is her telling me, and i just looked at her. I can't remember too much else. Most dreams of mine, aren't that vivid. People are usually what i remember most out of it.. it all depends tho.
