An interpretation of pregnancy dreams
This interpretation is from ""The Dream Interpretation Dictionary: Symbols, Signs, and Meanings" and is provided by J.M. DeBord aka "RadOwl". He is the author of several acclaimed books about dreaming, the host of The Dreams That Shape Us podcast, and is a moderator of r/Dreams, one of the largest dream sharing communities on the internet. Pregnancy in a dream can mean that something new about you is brewing, developing, growing. A new part of your personality or character is getting ready to emerge, but for the moment it’s still gestating in the unconscious mind. See: Giving birth, Unconscious minds It can mean you have a new project or idea, something you might refer to as “my baby.” You might be pregnant with an idea or a feeling, or a situation is “pregnant with possibilities.” Children are creations, so being pregnant in a dream can mean you are creating something. See: Children For example, a woman dreams that she’s pregnant with five babies, symbolizing five projects she was given for a work-study program. She refers to them as “my babies.” See: Babies Being pregnant can mean there’s something you need to get out of you. If the baby feels heavy, it can symbolize the feeling of being weighed down. Pregnancy can mean you are anticipating something important. Pregnancy is referred to as “anticipating,” and the dream uses anticipating a baby to symbolize the importance of something, or high level of anticipation. Men dream about being pregnant. See: Giving birth Dreaming about being pregnant with your ex’s baby can mean something from the relationship is still inside you. If you dream your ex is pregnant with your baby, it carries the same idea. You left a part of yourself behind with that person. See: Former partners A pregnancy dream can mean you are working through personal issues before getting pregnant. The dream is preparing you by showing what needs to be done ahead of time, such as getting your finances in order, preparing your body, finding the right mate, judging whether a relationship is ready to handle a pregnancy, and addressing fears. In this sense, a dream can be like a simulation. It runs through scenarios to help you think about pregnancy, and it can ask, “What if?” For example, what if you really were pregnant? How would you react? See: Babies A positive pregnancy test can indicate positive prospects or feelings about pregnancy. The time is right, conditions are good. It can mean “stay positive,” especially if you’ve been trying for a while to get pregnant. In rare cases, a positive pregnancy test in a dream can foretell you will imminently be pregnant. On the other hand, a negative pregnancy test can indicate negative feelings or prospects. The time is wrong, conditions are bad. But remember that dreams associate between ideas, and a pregnancy test in a dream might have nothing to do with pregnancy. Instead, it can be used to indicate positive or negative feelings or prospects. Dreams are very creative with the ways they use associations to create symbolism. For example, a teenage female dreams that she’s pregnant and immediately worries about how she’ll tell her family. She feels that she’s done something terribly wrong but doesn’t remember doing anything to get pregnant. The situation connects with the feeling of being blamed for things she doesn’t do. Her parents constantly guilt-trip her. Along a similar line, being pregnant can symbolize a worst-case scenario come true. Finally, consider the obvious. If you are female, sexually active, and able to conceive, a dream about being pregnant might mean you are or soon will be pregnant.
