What does it mean to dream of a newborn? All possible interpretations
Dreams are said to be revealing of our innermost desires, but are we really sure that if a woman dreams of a newborn then does it mean she wants a pregnancy? It is not so obvious.
Many wonder why I don't dream? Or why can't I remember my dream? Others, on the other hand, have clear images of the dream in mind and manage to tell everything flawlessly upon awakening. Still others wonder if it is possible to have more than one dream. The number of dreams is too large a variable to consider if we think that every night we have so many different dreams.
Dreaming is beautiful, but have you ever dwelled on their meaning?
One or more meanings can be attributed to each vision, in this article we will see all the possible interpretations of dreaming about a newborn.

Dreaming of a newborn - what does it mean?
Let's be honest, even the coldest minds melt in front of the vision of a newborn, it is indeed very difficult to remain numb in front of the sweetness and delicacy of a newborn child.
Instinct, in most cases, suggests that we pick him up and cuddle him, and this is a totally natural action.
These sensations when they are part of the dream are more intense and amplified, which is why it is useful to dwell on the interpretation of dreaming newborns. There may be different interpretations, but we must admit that it is not always easy to arrive at a plausible explanation.
The newborn has always been a symbol of transformation, so a first meaning can be precisely that of a radical internal or external change in the dreamer's life. A newborn baby is destined to grow, becoming big and maturing, so the dream would mean a desire for personal growth.
This is a first meaning, but not the only one. Let's see others.
Dreaming of a newborn according to Jung's theory
Jung's theory of the eternal child is closely related to the appearance of children in dreams. In this case, however, the meaning is completely opposite to that seen previously: here we are faced with a real refusal towards growth, opposing maturation with all one's strength and accepting the desire to remain newborns forever.
It may seem strange, perhaps, but some individuals go through this phase: it is much better to think that you can be small forever and not have to face the harsh world of adults, rather than accepting the fact that you have to mature and change your habits.
If a woman is dreaming of a newborn
When a woman dreams of a newborn, the first thing you think about is an inherent desire for motherhood and the conviction increases especially if there are no children already and therefore you are not a mother. This interpretation based on the desire for pregnancy is trivial and perhaps often rushed because the dreamed child may want to indicate a condition of vulnerability.
We know how children are defenseless creatures and can be a symbol of our weak side that we do not like to show for fear of being hit in our little one.
Since the desire to have a child and become a mother does not concern all women, it is good to investigate further and focus on how the baby appears to us in the dream.

Dreaming of a newborn vomiting
You dreamed of a child vomiting, what is the meaning? This view, however repugnant, has to do with the personality: the regurgitation represents emotions and feelings that have been repressed for a long time that we are now ready to externalize.
It is not easy to reach this awareness, but it is always better to take advantage of the moment and free yourself by finding your lost balance.
Dreaming of a newborn's poop
Dreaming of a small child's poop can have different meanings. Here are the main ones:
- the consequence of something new that you are facing
- influences from your past that return to the present and need to be managed
- awareness of inappropriate and unpleasant behavior (such as pooping in public)
Finally, if a newborn's poop appears in a dream, this can also have a auspicious power and luck for the future.

A separate chapter concerns the dream vision of a dead newborn: it is a disturbing dream that has a lifeless child as its protagonist. What does that mean?
Even if the context is distressing, the interpretation is not so dramatic. It can simply mean something that stopped in the bud; in this case, to bring everything back to reality, it could be a project that has seen the end even before starting, or a feeling that for various reasons has never developed.
Ironically, a dead baby is a call to life, an invitation to sweep away mistrust, giving way to the courage to take new paths.
What does it mean to dream of your child?
The worries of everyday life we often take home at the end of the day and they concern our family. It is normal to be apprehensive of those we love and it often happens that our children are the protagonists of the dreams we have during the night.
When you dream of your child this represents the fear of losing him or that something bad will happen to him, this happens especially in difficult situations that may have really occurred in reality.
What if many babies appear in your dreams? They could be your children, in case you have more than one, and they represent the potential of your person that you absolutely must not underestimate, but on the contrary try in every way to enhance them.
Other possible meanings related to the baby's dream
As you may have noticed, the number of meanings when a child or a newborn appears in a dream are infinite. The fact to consider is that the first interpretation is to be closely linked to your personal life.
Let's see below other interpretations of newborns in dreams to understand what to associate them with.
- Dreaming of the laughing child - easily achieved their goals (it could be your inner child)
- Dreaming of so many newborns - the number of children manifests economic concern due to excessive spending
- Dreaming of a newborn with teeth: the early evolution of a project that you did not expect
- Dreaming of holding a baby in her arms - perhaps this is the case when there really is a desire for motherhood, to face pregnancy and become a mother.
