Pregnant
To dream that you are pregnant, symbolizes an aspect of yourself or some aspect of your personal life that is growing and developing. You may not be ready to talk about it or act on it. Being pregnant in your dream may also represent the birth of a new idea, direction, project or goal. (on this point it is funny that I don't have more of these dreams as I am always coming up with new projects and goals to work on...)
Alternatively, if you are trying to get pregnant, then the dream may be a wish fulfillment. If you are not trying to get pregnant, but dream that you are, then it symbolizes fear of new responsibilities.
It then suggested I look at the word "Belly" (a term I hate, btw, but I was curious)
Belly
To see your belly in your dream, indicates that your are processing and integrating your ideas and feelings from the unconscious to the conscious level. The belly symbolically holds repressed emotions and unexpressed feelings. Your dream may also be telling you to trust your gut feeling and intuition.
(I hold a lot in my
To see a pregnant belly, represents emotions that are due to come to the surface. They can no longer remain suppressed.
To dream that you are stroking or touching a belly, indicates that you are coming to terms with certain feelings. You are slowly confronting and acknowledging your repressed emotions.
Ladder
If you are climbing down a ladder, then it suggests that you are escaping from your spiritual responsibilities. It is an indication of future disappointments.
Trapdoor
To find or see a trapdoor in your dream, represents unexpected opportunities that will come your way. Don't be afraid to explore those opportunities. Alternatively, a trapdoor symbolizes discovery of something that you have repressed or stored in the unconscious.
Claustrophobia
To dream that you have claustrophobia, suggests feeling of self-guilt. You fear that you will be punished for your past's actions.
Climb
To dream that you are climbing down something, indicates that you need to acknowledge and take notice of your unconscious. You are expressing some hesitance and reservation with delving into your more negative feelings. Alternatively, it suggests that you may be feeling low or emotionally drained.
Overall most of the dream made sense to particular things/feelings/events going on in my life, so I had it pretty much figured out from the start, but it's always fun to at interpretations, doncha think?
On a side note I just remembered how once an ex-boyfriend had a very good theory on a dream I had. We had had a pregnancy scare and I had a dream where I was hiding a gun in my waist-band throughout the entire dream and at one point I was around my mother and desperately trying to keep it from her. His theory was the gun represented the "pregnancy" because he knew I was horrified of my mother ever finding out.
Dreams are such funny things.
I also don't like the word belly...or tummy.
