this dream is repeating. I saw myself breastfeeding a baby(not mine).Sometimes i see this baby as an orphan and i feel so much compassion for the baby.But still my feeling towards breastfeeding is mixed.Its like i am compelled to do the act.I dono if this has any significance.I have heard that dreaming babies indicate new beginning. is it true?IP: Logged |

Hello sweetlibra  True, that is a possibility. In the dream you are both reluctant and compelled ... anything like that in waking life? Some questions could help. First, when did you begin having this type of dream? Do you have anxiety about being a woman? (appearance, style, femininity, etc.) Do you have anxiety about being a mother? Do you need to be nurtured? Or cared for? Do you feel out of place, perhaps lost, and desire a primal kind of attention and/or nurturance, a deep need? Is there something new beginning in your life (home, work, relationship, whatever) that needs your care/nurturance, but that perhaps you are hesitant about?  IP: Logged |

wow lots of questions  i like to ask and answer questions [if i dont get human beings,i trouble God with questions ) I cant remember exactly Ra, but i think i started dreaming like this since 2003. i am very conscious of being a woman.I used to be anxious over my femininity.I didnt want to project myself as feminine but i am soft in expressions. but i thought i came to accept my femininity since i met my boyfriend  Yes i have anxiety about being a mother.I am worried if i'll b selfless enough to take good care of my kid.Or lets say i have great expectations for a mother I really dono if i need to be nurtured or cared for.Its a paradox really. I was brought up with lots of freedom to the point that i didnt get much care. So a part of me wishes to be nurtured and the other part wishes freedom.. Yes i feel out of place though not lost.Oh! may b i desire a primal kind of attention..! me and my boyfriend started planning a life together during the last few months.may be that is what i am worried about. im anxious over how his parents will accept me..I can easily sense whether people like me or not.At the worst, their thoughts also  so if i get any such vibe from his relatives, i m afraid it'll affect my happiness with him. how nice Ra, you asked these questions

One of my best friends was having reoccuring dreams about babies, specifically having babies. I think that babies represent something in your life that needs nurturing. So maybe you can look for some area in your life that needs more attention.IP: Logged |

A few more questions?  Sweetlibra, why did you used to be anxious over your femininity? Why didn't you want to project yourself as feminine? Why are your feelings towards breastfeeding mixed? And what feelings, exactly, are mixed? If any of these questions are too personal, please feel free to ignore them.  IP: Logged |

I used to think being a woman makes me more vulnerable(which later i found out wrong ) in tht dream, the mixed feelings were that of compassion and of a feeling that i am being compelled to do it(I mean to breastfeed someone's baby who'll eventually leave me).Though In conscious mind, i dont have any objection against breastfeeding  Ra i feel very free to express here since most of the knowflakes are unbiased  IP: Logged |
