Some people tried holding him and tried doing somewhat of CPR techniques but nothing helped. People would just stare at me as I extended my hands out with my baby stiff and dead. I would open my mouth but nothing came out. I went out and walked around te streets asking people to help me. He was close to being as big as my whole hand. As I got him out of the carseat he for some reason shrinked into a tiny little thing. A blanket was on top of his face not allowing him to breath.

While it is absolutely horrifying to dream of the death of a child, which makes sense because the loss of a child truly is just about the worst thing a parent can experience, dreams about children dying are fairly common and could be thought of in a variety of ways.įirstly, it makes sense that our deep need to keep our children alive, much less safe from harm, would be deeply wired into our biology, consistent with our species intention to carry on. ![]()
