Original source (English)

(See Wet-Nurse.) If a married woman dreams of suckling a child, it foretells that she will soon give birth to another; should a bachelor dream of seeing a child suckled, he had better make up his mind that he will soon have a young lady’s board to pay, whether he marries or not; but as the latter would be the better course let him be looking round for a wife at once. A married man who dreams this, will soon become a happy father.
