I dreamed I was at a meeting in a library with several friends and strangers, my fiancé and our 3 month old son. During the meeting, I got bored so I took the baby to feed him in the car. During the meeting, my fiancé and the other guests were drinking heavily and having fun but I was not. While the baby and I were in the car, somehow the gear switched from Parked to Neutral and the car started to roll backward. Every time I hit the brakes it sped up. I started to really worry that something could happen and my baby would be hurt. I tried to stop the car, a stranger who was playing the part of my fiancé's brother tried to help us and (weirdly) Aladdin from the Disney movie all tried to stop the car but couldn't. Finally, we slowed the car down enough that I could grab the baby and jump out. After we were out, the car crashed into a pickup truck and I realized that it had been a toy car all along. It didn't even scratch the truck.
After that happened, my fiancé was afraid for us to drive home, so we decided to stay the night in the library basement, which had somehow turned into a church. We climbed down several flights of stairs and emerged in a baptism font. My fiancé wanted us to bathe ourselves and the baby, so he turned on the water and the room started to fill with water. This scared me so I found a regular shower in another room and bathed myself. I came back to the room where he was with my baby and found them floating on a pool. The room had become a large deck where there were several swimming pools and the sun was shining. Each pool also had an animal in it. The pool they were in had a playful seal. This made me feel anxious but not terribly so. Then my fiancé switched to a pool with a bear swimming in it. I told him there was a bear in the pool, but he didn't believe me and put our child on a float and into the pool. I frantically swam out into the pool to save my baby from the bear which hadn't even noticed he was there. At that point, I started noticing that dream me was hallucinating. I began seeing my baby everywhere. I couldn't tell which was real and which was an animal pretending to be him. I was terrified but trying to tell myself that this had happened before in my dream. I woke up feeling extremely anxious
My child is 3 months old. I don't know what this dream means, but it's pretty typical of all my dreams. Since he was born, it is rare for me to go a night without a bad dream. They aren't really nightmares I wouldn't say, they are usually just emotionally uncomfortable or scary to me. Also possibly noteworthy information, I've had extreme anxiety since he has been born but haven't been diagnosed with postpartum depression or anxiety and haven't taken any medicine for it. What do you suppose this dream means?
