What Does It Mean When You Dream About Giving Birth?
This can be an odd dream to have. If you have given birth to children before, then it could be just a blend of your subconscious memories. If you have never given birth before though, having this type of dream could really confuse it. Normally, giving birth in a dream does not mean that you will actually give birth soon in real life. Instead, this dream type is associated with a variety of different dream interpretations.
When you dream about giving birth, it can mean that you are facing great changes in your normal life. You may feel like a new beginning is just around the corner, and you are ready for the emotional, spiritual or physical transformation. If you dream about pregnancy as well, it can mean that great events and changes are just around the corner. If you actually are pregnant though, a dream about giving birth may just be due to your expectations and fears for the future. We will also cover the common variations and interpretations of this dream meaning.
1. Witnessing the Birth of a Child
If you watch someone else giving birth in a dream, it means that you will soon have financial success. If a woman dreams about giving birth, it may represent a sense of happiness or contentment.
2. Lonely Women
If someone is lonely and female, dreaming about giving birth means that she feels like there are rumors about her in real life. When a man dreams that he is giving birth, it means that he is about to go through a difficult time socially or at work.
3. Helping With the Birth
Helping someone to give birth represents abundance and a sense of honor. When there is a good birth, it is a symbol of creativity, happiness and luck. Meanwhile, a difficult birth indicates major issues that you will have to overcome. If the birth in the dream is quite tiring, it may indicate that there are complications ahead of you in life. If the birth is unexpected, it may be a sign of misfortune.
4. Gender
It is said that giving birth to a girl in the dream means that you will soon be free of all of your troubles. If you give birth to a boy, it is said to represent tiredness and fatigue. Having twins symbolizes abundance and wealth. An easy birth also means joy and good luck.
5. You Are Giving Birth
When you are giving birth in the dream, it may mean that you have a new attitude toward life. You recognize that you must make efforts to achieve your dreams and take responsibility for your part in each situation. If you are a single woman, an old wives’ tale says that you will first experience sadness and misfortune before experiencing happiness.
Other Dream Interpretations
Often, giving birth signals that there is good news arriving from abroad or exceptionally good luck. It can mean that good health and financial improvements are in your future. If you hear that someone else has given birth, it means that you will soon be saved from a difficult or complicated situation. It may also mean that you will achieve the success that you have been waiting so long for.
At its heart, giving birth is the ultimate transformation. From the love of two people, an entire other being is born. It is the ultimate new beginning and transformation. As such, a happy birth tends to represent abundance, new beginnings and the ability to work toward what you want.
Obviously, the ultimate meaning of the dream depends on what interpretation you give the dream. If a friend recently gave birth in your waking life, then the dream may just be representing some of the subconscious thoughts, feelings and memories that are going through your head. If you want to start a family, the dream may even be directly related to your desire to have children of your own. To really figure out what your dream means, you ave to figure out the situation in the dream, how you felt in the dream and who was involved. Then, you have to decide how these factors relate to your waking life. By doing this, you can create your own, individualized dream interpretation.

I had a dream that I was just aware that I was full term pregnant and starting to go into labor. It’s fuzzy as to where I had the baby, but the feeling was that it was a natural and safe place to give birth. My labor was slightly painful, nothing excruciating, first I stopped pushing too soon and the baby kind of slipped back, with the next push I held it and successfully pushed the baby out. The baby was taken and cleaned off and presented to mean mostly clean. I looked down at him and felt such a connection and intense joy. Then I sort of shift to my grandmother’s house (she has passed) I was in the bathroom breastfeeding and talking to some unknown person, but was the same person that was with me when I had the baby. Their energy and my connection to them felt special and important. We then started discussing how I was going to tell my family and friends about the baby. Apparently in the dream the pregnancy was unknown for the majority of the time but wasn’t unwelcomed at all, but on the contrary I thought (in real life also) that I would never have kids so I was very happy. I was still worried at the shock to my family and the questions but I in no way thought that my son would be I’ll received. The only other thing was that I couldn’t decide on a name for him. This part isn’t totally strange to me because whenever I get a pet I don’t have a name picked out. I wait to see what personality they have and come up with several and “try them on”. I feel like my pets choose their name because they’ll respond most often to the name they prefer. I should mention I am single but I didn’t FEEL single in the dream.

This dream may show something as simple as a desire to rethink your desire not to have kids. Birth is often a sign of transformation and great changes in a dream, so it may mean that you sense some kind of change is approaching. Judging by your reaction in the dream, the coming transformation must be a good one because you seem at peace and content with it.

I had a dream of two pregnant woman fighting, they kept saying things to each other and then it become physical. At the end one of the girls went into labor and had the baby there before her due date. I ran to help the baby he was not responding so I keep talking to him and saying he was going to make it and keep pressing on his little chest as I was moving him so he can stay awake. At the end the baby was fine and looking at me. But when I saw him again he had to get something on his head because something didn’t develop

Hey!
I am 14 years old and will turn 15 in about two months. ok, i had i dream last night about me being in labor. i got 9 babies. 6 boys and 3 girls. everyone was suprised because no one expected that many babies. so trough the rest of the dream, suddenly the babies were birds and turned human again. it was really weird. they played a lot and all i wanted to do was to name them because it was hard due to them being twins and not knowing when to stop moving. they were immediately 1-2 years old after the labor day but they weren’t alike except the girls. i remember two boys Specifically, francis and romeo. i wanted to name one of the girls luna but never got to that point because i woke up. i dont remember a dad and during labor i was in pain but it went by pretty fast. tell me honestly what this means and just so you know, i am single and i never think about pregnancy and labor and stuff. except for the name thingi.

Hi. I’ve had a few dreams where I’ve had a baby. Every time it’s a girl. The first time I didn’t give birth just was holding a happy baby. However twice I’ve dreamed about giving birth. Last night I dreamed I was alone in my house and I gave birth to the baby by myself. It felt really vivid like I remember the screaming and stuff. Then I just had a baby girl who was happy and smiling and laughing as the other dreams.

Hi. I had a dream that I helped my aunt deliver her baby, as in I was at the end of “catching” the baby. We were in my soon to be old family home and she was giving birth on my moms bed. The baby was coming out legs first and it was too late to get the baby turned around. She then pushed and the head of the baby came out. The baby was perfectly fine, as were worried about how the birth happened. I can’t say what the gender of the baby was but got a feeling in the dream that it was a girl. I can’t remember the rest of the dream as I woke up a short while later. Could you tell me what this dream means please.

Hi am 32 years lady old with a son. And happily married without intention of giving birth for now, I dreamt at the early hours of the day that I was pregnant and due for delivery and am in labor but wasn’t feeling the labor pain. But in few seconds I gave to a beautiful baby but couldn’t identify the sex of the baby and my stomach was still big again after delivery. I was admiring the child. And besides me was a woman giving birth to tiny babies. Already brought 4 babies alone and she tried to help me. And the place we are in is like a manger/stable. Like the place were Jesus was born. All the babies were cute especially my own baby b please wat does this mean.

I am 53 yrs and have children and grandchildren of my own. I dreamed that I delivered a baby all by myself (my daddy was in the room and after the birth I was delivering the placenta/fluids etc and i told my daddy to move his feet. My daddy passed away on 2005). After that the baby boy was beautiful and was turning a little blue so I started rubbing him and he was fine. I asked a co worker to get me a towel to wrap him in and she said no. So I got up off the floor and got a towel, wrapped him up and started saying that I had to go to the store to buy diapers and clothes. SO WIERD!!! Please tell me what this means.

I’m an unmarried single women of 24 yrs. I had a dream of giving birth to a baby boy without pain within very few minutes of contraction in my house with my mom nearby. Baby looks like almost a month old. I eagerly found the gender of baby born. My mom pampers the baby and gave it to my dad downstairs. He pampers the baby and we are all happy!
I have no idea whether I’m married or single in dream. But no one is disappointed or sad over this!
