Case Analysis of Dreams about Umbilical Cord
[Dream Example 1]
I dreamt that I was in my boyfriend's house, on his bed, and my stomach was hurting so badly I was about to give birth. I told him to quickly go to another room and call his mother, but before she arrived, I gave birth. I could even see the umbilical cord. The baby was purplish-red, and I didn't know how to cut it. The baby was completely still, and I don't know if it survived. I think it didn't. What does this mean? (I'm a single woman.)
Dream Interpretation: Having a child signifies "good fortune." Dreaming of being in your boyfriend's bed indicates that the good fortune is related to your boyfriend. The presence of an umbilical cord suggests that the good fortune is inextricably linked to you and will definitely occur. The fact that the child is not alive suggests that you did not seize the opportunity when the good fortune came, causing it to disappear. It is recommended that you pay more attention to small details around your boyfriend in the near future and make the most of this good fortune.
[Dream Example 2]
I used to dream about giving birth often, but it was usually about other people giving birth. I wanted to help, but I was afraid of making things worse. A few days ago, I dreamed that I was giving birth myself. I was in a hospital, and a woman next to me was giving birth. They were pressing hard on her stomach, and thankfully the baby was born. I thought to myself, thank goodness this woman didn't have any complications, otherwise, their blind pressing would have been dangerous. It seems that people here never have prenatal checkups, and this is how they do it even when it's almost time to give birth. Then they started pressing on my stomach, and I felt intense pain. I knew something was wrong, and that continuing to press like that would be dangerous. I loudly berated them for pressing without checking the mother, and I demanded that my family members (husband? mother? I can't remember) check me. They pushed me into a room and ignored me. While I was waiting, the baby's head appeared. They came to help me, but they didn't know anything about babies, and I was afraid they might twist the baby or get the umbilical cord tangled. Thankfully, we managed to untangle the baby, but the umbilical cord still broke. I didn't feel much bleeding, but I was worried about a hole in the navel and whether it would get infected. I was also worried that the placenta might be pulled down, which would cause severe bleeding back to the uterus, but thankfully it wasn't. I didn't feel any pain during the entire delivery. I don't know if it's a boy or a girl. It seems like I didn't pay much attention to that.

Dream Interpretation: The umbilical cord is the conduit between mother and child, a symbol of the bond between flesh and blood. The breaking of the umbilical cord symbolizes separation. For mothers who are deeply entangled with their children ("I'm afraid of hurting the baby, or getting the umbilical cord tangled"), and who are deeply unwilling to separate from their children, this is a painful process. Therefore, they may blame external pressure ("It's dangerous for them to press so blindly") and others for not considering their feelings ("They press without examining the mother"), feeling as if their intestines are being torn apart. However, the statement "I didn't feel pain throughout the entire delivery process" and "I didn't feel much bleeding, I was just worried about whether there would be a hole in my navel, or whether it would get infected" indicates that there were few scars, and the separation from the child was basically smooth. However, the mother still worries about the emptiness and trauma she will feel after the separation ("I'm worried about whether there will be a hole in my navel, or whether it will get infected").
"I was worried that the placenta might come off, which would cause severe bleeding in the uterus. Fortunately, it didn't." The uterus and placenta both symbolize maternal nourishment. The fact that these organs didn't come off signifies that the mother's identity as a mother is still intact, and she hasn't lost her maternal role in this separation from her child—this proves that the mother still has inner resources and strength. So, please believe in yourself.
Furthermore, the phrase "then there will be a massive hemorrhage in the uterus" is a typo; "returns" should be "will," indicating that the mother subconsciously still hopes that either she or her child can return to the uterus. However, this is impossible. Otherwise, there will truly be a massive hemorrhage—a catastrophic event for both mother and child. This is something the dreamer should be aware of.
