What does it mean when you dream your giving birth and someone close to you dies?

Answer 1

absolutely nothing its a dream!

A different response:

The dream could have a number of different meanings depending on the setting, the accompanying emotions, and who the "someone" is in the dream. One possibility is that the dream is a direct expression of the dreamer's subconscious fears. Ironically, this can be a good thing, as research has demonstrated that pregnant women who have frightening dreams about childbirth actually have fewer problems than other women when they do give birth. The theory is that those who have nightmares are able to work through their anxieties in the dreams, and so are more relaxed and confident when the baby arrives.

Another possibility is that the subconscious mind uses the childbirth and death to symbolically represent a major change in the dreamer's life. The old life is about to pass away and a new life, represented by the newborn child, is about to begin.

An important rule of thumb is that the dream is about the dreamer. Other characters, even known people and relations, who appear in a dream most often represent some aspect of the dreamer's personality.

Answer 2

If the dreamer is pregnant, this dream might be triggered by the changing hormones of pregnancy, and have no other significance than dramatizing and exaggerating the mother's natural anxiety. Otherwise, the "baby" could symbolize some idea, effort or assignment that is precious to the dreamer and the source of anxiety over its potential success.

Answer 3

If you are pregnant, the dream is nothing more than the sort of vivid, disturbing dream that is typical of pregnancy. See the link below for further information on pregnancy dreams.

> Otherwise, the dream suggests that you are in the process of developing something that is draining all your energy. Like the effort of giving birth, this project feels as if it has dominated your life. The "dying" represents the end of this effort and the major change you will experience once this project is done and your life returns to normal.

Answer 4

The question is not quite clear as to whether someone died in the dream or died in real life. If the person died in real life after the dreamer had the dream of giving birth, then it is almost certainly a meaningless coincidence. Dreams of giving birth do NOT predict death. Realistically, someone, somewhere, dies several times every day. So no matter when one dreamed of giving birth, there is 100% chance of someone dying the next day. If someone died in the same dream in which the dreamer gave birth, that suggests the passing of one generation and the beginning of the next. Note that it need not be a "generation" of people, but it might refer to the next generation of some product or business in which the dreamer is involved.
