Hello all. I wanted to share a dream of mine, the scenario in which has seemingly been experienced by at least a few other male dreamers.

Relevant information: I am a 22 year old male and M in this dream is my girlfriend of one year.

Following is the dream verbatim from my written dream journal:

M and I are having a child. We are somewhere, and this baby is being born not from her but from me. I feel something inside and know it is ready to come out. I let Melissa, who is standing by me, know this. I then give a small push and watch the child appear. It is small and wet, very clearly newborn. The next time I see him, he seems to be at least three years old. He looks very similar to a three year old me. I think that he looks like a combination of the two of us, though without very much M. I see most of her addition in the color of his hair.

Also notable: There was no pain during the childbirth; rather, it seemed to happen very passively. My dreams generally do not contain much emotion, this one no exception. If anything, there was a slight sense of happiness and proudness.

Any comments, analysis, anecdotes, etc are welcome
