The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

Ok recently my friends had a baby boy. We all live together so I see them everyday. There little boy has more energy that most newborns I've seen. He really eats away at his parent's energy at night.

During the few time that I have watched him he likes to start crying at first. So like any concerned person I pick him up and hold him for a while. The little bugger likes to feed off my energy as well. So I calm myself and it transfers to and he ends up falling asleep.

I was wondering if any of you have seen a child like this, and if so share. Also if this is normal.

Most say I havent heard of this, but it will be interesting to hear the replies! Keeping tuned in here :)

my son was like that when he was born but i thin that is natural to begin with as they get older you will notic a change but the transfer of energy is good like that the little one will be healthy and strong and full of life my sone is now 3 and he still likes to drain my energy he likes to cuddle up mith me at his bed time and fallinto a restless sleep he loves it when i am here with him helikes to bite as well lol like father like son

yes I have seen only one child as which you speak and she would only fall asleep on me others she would put to sleep me finding them past out all over the place with her on top wide awake as for if it's natural hmm not sure anybody else know?

Babies can drain energies like crazy but also do you think it could be simply you allowing the energy to go into the boy, which is helping him relax?

I tried to keep him from doing it. However that didn't work, hence the calming.

i'm going to play cynic for a bit.

I think that babies are highly cued to the people around them, so if you're clam, so will baby.

I have a 3 month old myself, and she is a drain on my energy just from her very existance. When she is fussy, I hold her and focus on relaxing my body and mind, which makes her clam down too after a while. She is very strongly connected through body language, it is her only way to communicate.

That being said, I'm going to communicate to my daughter that 7 is not a good time of morning and we should sleep some more.

I have two children of my own, so I can easily tell you that babies are connected to the energies of those around them. If you're anxious, angry, calm, etc, most of the time, the baby will reflect that--especially if they have a bond with you. They, essentially, feed off your energy. Also, they thrive on physical contact.

A loving caretaker often has a calm, loving baby. One who yells a lot, is abusive, etc, often has one that cries a lot, is in fear, or angry themself.

I never looked at this subject in this manner before, hmmmm.

But, maybe he is just getting spoiled and has his perents wrapped around his chubby little digits.

I really would like to see the responses on this, though.

He seems like every baby I've ever been around. They suck the energy out of everyone and everything around them. I thinks that's how they grow so fast.

yes it is normal for babies to be sensitive to energies around them. As some stated, they only have their body and crying to communicate with thus they are very sensitive to touch.

Every single baby I know draws there energy from their parents... It is by them holding them and rocking them, that the babe is able be calmed from a crying fit and transformed into a sleeping baby.

My daughter was like that. Most of the time, I could get her to calm down. Other times, I had to call her uncles to hold her and get her calm because she was in such a state that she drained me during them.

My son never feed off my energy when he was a baby but from the womb he's always feed off others. It becomes quite unnerving sometimes.

I constantly have to shield others from him, and if i'm not there he comes back rippling with energy and gives all the rest of my family headaches. All the members of my family are psychic or empathic they vary in levels.

My mother has always had a good shield around her and guardians I wondered why for the longest time until I had my son. The cats really hate it because they enjoy having some control over what is going on with their bodies but dogs really don't seem to mind being drained.

Having a dog around also tends to get the child to drain less off people and more off the animal. It's in their nature to be loyal to their pack leader, so it's a perfect way of putting a bit of control on a child that has that type of ability.

Both of my kids where the same way when where babies. My 7 year old still does this to me and everyone else around her.

When thier little one gets older hopfuly he will learn to control himself. But for now he needs every thing he takes.

I was like that.
Now I'm still like that but I can control myself

My little cousin was like that (He's 5 now).

When he was younger, he was like that with me, i went to visit him a lot so he practically always wants me with him, he wants to be just like me... haha.
But yea, i usually had to calm him down by holding him and using the while calm and relax thing.

Now he seems to be a really calm person, but someone who can use reason and common sense to get their own way... just like me!
:P

Illianos.

The great thing about babies is they eventually grow out of it some children keep the ability some don't. With the ones who don't they should be properly taught how to control their ability....be it for the sake of others and themselves so they don't have horrid migraines. My son suffers from them in crowded places from drawing in far too much energy from others.

I haven't heard of that, but it's very interesting!!! Are either of his parents "energy feeders", as I call them? If so he could have inherited that trait from them.

I've heard of babies being able to see spirits and communicate with them, but this is the first time I've heard of them taking energy from their parents.

I havent heard of it but i am sure it is normal kids tend to drain u of energy no matter how old and they dont need to do anything just being around them

babys are great my grandson an i have a bond that is unexplaneable but you can feel it in the air when you see it

It is totally normal for a baby to drain energy. Also, your calming yourself helps every baby calm. The poor little thing needs a calming influence.

i think its not just babies... i think babys more so then adults do it but what i'm trying to say is that everyone in life feeds from whats around then... if you go to a club your up beat , you go to a bar your relaxed, if you go to a school your agravatited.

was quite normal with my son... plus he got to the point that we knew what he needed before he even woke up at night.... and psy vamp kids can't control it

I think all kids have way too much energy.But I did meet a one year old little girl who could eat more than I did and she was thin as could be. It was sort of scary because I could just keep giving her food and she would eat it all.

I would have to agree and say this is normal. After raising 4 children, the last 2 were twins, I would say babies are extremely capable of draining anyones energy. It is a thankless job!

i just finished reading up ... babys really dont have all that much energy. they just use alot of it in burst witch causes them to sleep so much

its already been said, but a baby will pick up on the mood of the person doing the holding; if you are calm and talking or singing to the baby in a soothing manner the baby will become calm. If the person is aggitated and tense the baby senses this and rather than being calm itself, will cry more - something a parent learns within the first chaotic weeks.

i believe that the source of the baby energy is the diper radiation...lol

My son... he is a little vamp. Has been draining me since before he was born and I do not think he is going to stop either... :)

my parents always told my that i was the rowdiest child they hav ever seen.. once he starts climbing trees ull see wat i mean

I have never thought of this subject matter before, and I have enjoyed reading all responses. There are some that I agree with more than others, but everyone has a point in what was stated

I think that babies and small children can feel your energy and feed off of it. It is normal.

It really is a normal thing. I agree with Images, and others stated above.

My son was like that 5 years ago when he was born, his attitude would change with the person who held him. I was always aggrivated and stressed out, and so was he. But when my mother would hold him, she would stay calm, and my son would be really relaxed.

I am currently pregnant, 6 months along, and this baby is draining my energy literally. I'm constantly tired and worn out, but the baby is always moving and kicking alot. I know that after this one is born, it would be nearly the same way...if Im stressed and annoyed, the baby proberbly will be to.

Well i'm no expert on this matter but i'd say it was pretty normal, i've seen my little cousins like that when they were young but they got over it - maybe its just a phase that babies go through or something like that.

Both of my children were like that when they were newborn, I myself am like that. But not to the extent of absorbing others energy to the extent of drawing their knowledge. Both of my children were very intune to everyones energy around them. If I was upset or happy they fed off of that energy.

I agree this is normal
my bridget had little cute fangs and made feeding hard on the nipple lol my wife moved her to a bottle

Some children do do it, and it is at first without realsing they are, then as they grow older and time goes they know it and do it on purpous to feed off our energy.

Thank you all for your responses. They have been a great help.

my nephew is like that. I dont see it as being anything but normal..but maybe cuz with every child Ive been around they have been just like that. They are just more..in tuned with energy and that such. Maybe I just dont see it any different *shrugs*

My daughter was and still is that way. I think its part of the idea that babys feed off their mother and fathers emotions.

I must agree with what Imagesinwords said, she gave a very good description of exactly how it must feel for babies to come out of their safe haven to this world.

I think it's REALLY important that the parents are always close to the baby and that they surround them with positive energy. I've heard many say that they want to teach the child to be independent and not too "clingy", wherefor they try not to rock it or hold it too much and make it sleep in its own bed. I think that is completely insane. A child can learn that in a later stage in life, a baby is SUPPOSED TO be held, rocked, cuddled and comforted as much as possible! I doubt it affects how inpendent or dependent the baby will be in the future.

This leads into interesting discussion on the true nature behind vampirism. There are those who suggest the vampire archetype lies at the core of a needy person.

We call these vampires "emotional vampires" whom are commonly mistakenly called "psychic vampires". A baby who exhibits vampiric behavior I believe only exhibits them for the reasons stated above. Children are needy. They require massive amounts of energy and time. This is common to infants of all species to a degree, I don't see why human infants should be different.

Vampirism, I believe, manifests itself in the born vampires later in life. Until then, they are just being common babies. They need the energy of others to do what they cannot for themselves.

In many cases, adults who are vampires exhibit similar traits because they rely on others to keep their energy up. This is commonly mistaken for a psychological need in many, but the true vampire notices the side effects of not feeding much more readily than those who are 'lifestylers' by choice.

My own energy is highly inefficient when left to its own devices. It leaks like the proverbial hole in the bucket. And if it is allowed to leak long enough without replenishment, I myself display a much more "needy" emotional side and become unstable.

In essence, the baby's needs are very vampiric. This is due to the need for what they cannot attain for themselves. In vampires, the need is much the same. And no, this doesn't mean I believe all us vampires are "needy babies". When one learns how to control their need and monitor it much like a diabetic controls their blood sugar, one becomes much more productive in life and less destructive to those around them.

I've raised 3 children and babies definitely "feed" off others' energies. They can pick up on whatever mood is being displayed through the house and it sets the tone for their behavior until something drastically changes. It's freakish, but it's just what babies do.

babies are weird and wonderfull creatures they have yet had time to have drummed in them the beliefs of others and wills forced onto them. that is why they seem to have no care, no fear and can do strange and wonderful things

I can't say I've really heard of this theory before.... I sounds like he likes you and feels comfortable with you.... I've dealt with babies and kids who act the way your roomies boy does but I never felt they were feeding off of my energy..... You must seem very soothing to him.

I never really thought about this until I had my daughter almost eight months ago. When I first brougt her home from the hospital, I was a wreck. I had had a rough delivery and it wrecked havoc on my body and mind. When I would get upset or start crying she would too. And if I was really relaxed and calm she would lay on my tummy and fall fast asleep. I think that whatever you are feeling or sensing the baby or child will sense it as well. Babies can feel what you are feeling. I don't know how they do it, but if you really think about it, the people around you that are close to you can sense your feelings as well. My daughter still likes to sleeps on my tummy when I am at peace. She does the same with my mom.

I've never encountered a child like this- however it does make sense. Children, especially babies need absurd amounts of energy in order to grow- especially mentally.

my daughter was like that well she still is like that she has just learned to do it better lol

well yes I have encountered a child belonging to a very powerful witch her daughter was said to be a child that would obtain great power and fulfill much good on this cruel and wicked earth, she used to do the same thing, it is natural in children who are destined to be magical in some way, shape or form, it is a gift, that protects.

Well,
I have 2 wonderful Girls..

They are 2 years apart and have had identical upbringings..Although my eldest has perhaps felt things she shouldn't have, I think this has only added to her incredible wisdom.

OK.. my eldest actually GIVEs energy.. she HELPS.
My youngest literllay bounds in to ANY room.. Hollering whatevers.. at anyone around, and saps the Whole environment, she will play with an animal til it runs off LoL.
my eldest will want to sit and talk about the world and the Moon and give her opinions and GIVE physical energy. She never seems to Take any energy from me.. she seems 'kinetic'
my youngest just HAS to have the limelight..
Identical upbringings Yet 2 Completely different needs from them both.
When my youngest goes to bed, I am drained. If I am with my eldest out shopping or whatever.. I realise how much energy I HAVE available for her.
Bless them!!

If I have any more babies.. maybe the next will be more neutral!
:)

I think it is completely normal.. part of the personality-makeup

Babies don't feed off energy like psy vampires, but if you are not used to dealing with them then they can become physcally draining.

my youngest projects to me. I always know if something is wrong, if he is cutting a tooth I feel pain in the same area and I don't have cavities. I know when his tummy hurts because mine will as well.

My daughter was the same way they grow out of it as they get older. so don't worry. My daughter use to keep her dad and i up all nite and go to sleep around four. She was a colic baby so i had to keep her moving while she was awake or she would start cring.

I dont think babies can help it, they just do what there instincts tell them to do.
