THE DREAM I was holding and gently touching a baby. It was an odd looking almost mutant baby.

THE REALITY The dreamer had been thinking a lot about a woman whom he wanted to get on better terms with.

THE INTERPRETATION Dreams often play out the thoughts inside your head. That night the dreamer had been lying awake thinking about how to sort things out with a woman. He wanted to heal the wounds. So how could this dream represent that mood. Babies obviously link to your caring and healing side. So the baby represented his own wish to heal rifts with this woman. The mutant babies perhaps symbolized the extreme lengths and crazy plans he had thought up. Or maybe the terrible state of the relationship.
