Baby
Babies in dreams often represent new beginnings, innocence, and vulnerable aspects of yourself that need nurturing. They can also symbolize new projects, ideas, or relationships in their infancy. Caring for a baby may reflect your nurturing nature, while neglecting a dream baby may indicate you're neglecting something important in waking life.
Car
Cars in dreams represent your drive through life and how much control you feel.

Car problems (brakes failing, engine dying) often reflect feelings of losing control or inability to stop a situation.
