Is the baby delivered successfully, and is it healthy and normal? Dreams of miscarriage reflect doubts about a developing project or relationship. Dreams of a premature birth reflect concerns that the “baby” will come too soon and you won’t be prepared.
Dreams of delivering a baby often symbolize the effort to help someone “birth” something new in their life. Dreams of birthing small reptiles, cats or dogs are common in first-time mother’s dreams during pregnancy. Such dreams may reflect a concern that the baby will not be “normal.”
