BellaOnline Forums Religion and Spirituality Dreams miscariage - not pregnant

Hi, This is my frist post!

I had a dream the other night that bothered me. I dreamt that I lost a tiny foetus. I was touching it and showed it to my husband who just looked at me and told me it was dead.

I'm not pregnant, we're not having any more children and I should add that my marriage is on the rocks...

I wonder if this means that I see it as ending.

Any hints or views about this would be interesting.

Thanks <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Hi Valerie! Welcome to Bellaonline! I am kind of tickled that I get to say that first, because I am in Ontario too. <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
This is a great forum, and there are fantastic women here who care for each other and will become friends. And...there is no shortage here of folks who will gladly tell you what they think <img src="/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />
(am I right ladies, or am I right?)
We love to share dreams and dig around for what they might mean for the dreamer.

And now for your dream...
If you had not included the info that your marriage was on the rocks, that is what I would have asked you, so your intuition that the marriage is not just in trouble but actually over might be right on. Certainly your body ended what was perhaps going to grow and have life in your dream, but I noted that it was your husband who confirmed that it was indeed dead and not savable. Are you looking for him in real life to tell you your marriage is not able to be saved?

I'm sorry indeed that you are having such a bad time in your life right now. Stay in touch,
Trishh

Hi Trishh, thanks for the warm welcome.

You're "take" on the dream seems about right.

I am looking for him to tell me that he will let me go..but he's not. He's holding on with everything he has. Right now I don't see it as a good thing since I want something different. Who knows what will happen...Maybe I'll post in the relationship forum.

Thanks again!

Hi Valerie

Trishh seems to have hit the most fitting interpretation. Maybe the foetus represented 'trying again'.

Sometimes we have to sit down & really say what is on our minds, or make the difficult decision ourselves. If I'd waited for my ex to say it was over bless him we'd still have been together now- which certainly wasn't what I wanted or good for either of us. Mind you I find being a single mum no picnic...so check that is really what you want before you take action! Good luck.

Lauren is right. Your dreaming self knows that this is over and that you can't continue carrying on with trying again. In your dream, it is only when you confront your husband with this reality, that he acknowledges you are right and it is "dead". You can do that tenderly, like in your dream, but it's likely you are going to have to be the one to make it happen. You knew that anyway, didn't you?
From yet another one who had to be the firm one, good luck!
