Here’s some background. I’m a 22 yr old single girl living with my parents.

I’ve been having loads crazy dreams lately, nearly all involving me holding a baby, usually running from something. But I’m never scared.

Just now, I’v woke up and I remember this

I was at work, and there were too many people in the corridor so told them to move for health and safety
Then an arm grabbed me and tried to drag me out the door. And I pulled away from him.
I remember thinking; oh he was nice where did he go so I went through the door to look for him.

At this point I was no longer at work and it was like a boots the chemist shop
There was a group of boys (like you get ladies doing make-over's in the shop) doing free tattoos, but they were all neon pink and black. Like a logo or something, I remember thinking when someone is free ill get a pink star with black edging on my stomach, I lifted my top up and thought “yer my stomach is flat and toned enough to get it out for a nice guy”

So I walked over to another end of the shop and there was a seating area, I went to sit and a woman was waiting to talk to me, she was like a social worker type with a clipboard and note book.
She said this chair is for you free. (A big comfy recliner) she said she would get me some more. And then said “when are you moving in?”

I thought that’s strange I’m not moving. And then I just stroked my belly and said “oh it’s not due till ....(can't remember the month I said) so I won’t be moving out till then, I can’t afford my own place right now, a mortgage on your own is a lot but once the baby is here the council will get me a place”

Then she gave me and information pack and I sat down on another chair round the corner, this was a really low sofa and I struggled to get down and sit comfy so I sat with my legs up.

My top came up a bit and I rubbed my belly thinking oh my, that is a big bump for how far I am. Then I sat with my top half up, stroking my belly. And I looked around and there was my mam sitting on a proper chair looking over. The shock and horror on her face! And she was not happy, she was like, what have you done!!?>?

There was a little bit more to the dream after this but I’m not too sure what I can remember, I just remember felling worried and thinking, I don’t know who the dad is, I can’t remember sleeping with anyone, so I’ll just tell people he doesn’t want to be involved.

Some people say horrible things like if you dream of babies someone closed to you will die!

Dreaming about a baby definitely does not mean that you are going to die.

A baby can represent something new that is happening in your life.

I think that your dreams about holding a baby and running from something could have to do with you having a need to be protected or a feeling that someone you know needs to be protected form something.

Telling the people in the corridor about health and safety also fits with the idea of someone needing to be protected.

A tattoo is something you mark yourself with, so thinking about getting a tattoo could be about how you feel about your identity and how you think other people see you.

Your identity seemed to change in the shop - one second you're a woman with a flat, sexy tummy getting a tatoo to show your body off and the next you've got a big pregnant belly and you're seeing a social worker.

So that part of the dream could have to do with thoughs about how your life will change, and how you will change, as you grow older.

I think your mam in the dream is the part of you that is worried about how life might change for you in the future and wants to make sure you do the right things.
