A drowning baby signifies a new beginning that is being overwhelmed by the pressures of its environment. The root of the term suggests a life that has only just begun, and its struggle in this dream signifies a lack of sufficient support for its growth. This dream is not a sign of a completed end, but it is a warning of a beginning that cannot breathe.
The fragile nature of a new endeavor is what the dream reveals. A drowning baby shows how a small hope can be overwhelmed when the environment provides no room for its development. The potential for success remains present in the effort to sustain it. A drowning baby marks the point where a beginning meets a limit.
The setting of the water determines the nature of the pressure felt in the dream. A baby drowning in a pool or babies drowning in general indicates that collected emotions or a settled way of life are becoming too heavy to manage. The depth of these feelings threatens to overtake the smallness of the new start.
A drowned baby signifies that the capacity to direct one’s own course has been entirely extinguished. The stillness of the symbol indicates that the circumstances have already succeeded in halting the progress of the fresh endeavor.
The intimacy of a bathtub suggests that the struggle occurs within the most private or personal spheres of existence. This detail narrows the scope of the dream to matters of the self and the immediate home.
For its more general meaning: Dream about a baby
I dreamt of my nephew drowning I couldn’t help as I also ant able to swim but asked someone to help but the person also could not help

I’m finding this a bit late but my dream is recent and I’m interested in perspective. In the dream, I am the person that is drowning the baby. There is also mention of a “Lilith” in the dreamscape and the woman that speaks about her is a native woman. I don’t recall feeling anger or fear or regret. I found that odd. It is quite unlike my usual dreams.
