Hives
A child's hives often touch a small, alarming surface eruption that signals underlying health rather than danger. The dream may ask where a worrying outbreak is frightening you more than it should, whether the thing flaring up is actually a sign of vigour, and how to hold fear for someone vulnerable without letting it overrun you.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for hives, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To dream that your child is affected with hives, denotes that it will enjoy good health and be docile.
To see strange children thus affected, you will be unduly frightened over the condition of some favorite.
