Dreams about being attacked, especially by something unexpected like an evil baby, can be quite unsettling. This type of dream often symbolizes feelings of vulnerability or being overwhelmed by something that appears innocent or harmless on the surface but is causing distress in your life.
The baby may represent a situation, responsibility, or aspect of yourself that you find difficult to deal with. Fighting back in the dream suggests that you are trying to assert control over a situation that feels threatening or challenging. Feeling bad for fighting back may indicate inner conflict; you might be struggling with the idea of standing up for yourself or confronting issues that seem wrong but are also tied to your sense of compassion or responsibility.
Consider reflecting on any current situations in your life where you feel attacked or overwhelmed, particularly by something that you initially perceived as innocent or minor. It might be beneficial to explore your feelings about asserting yourself in these situations. Balancing your compassion with the need to protect yourself is key.
If this dream continues to bother you, it may be helpful to journal about your feelings or even discuss them with someone you trust. This could provide clarity and help you address any underlying concerns.
