This is an anxiety dream.,, and perfectly normal for an expectant Mother. Being pregnant, we women sometimes feel fat, and undesirable. Especially now, at 5 months along...your body is just becoming visably pregnant, and your hormones are going wild, possibly causing rashes and skin blemishes. You know you're pregnant, but until you can actually feel that baby bouncing around in there, you just feel 'fat' and decidedly un-sexy. Shante is an exotic name, and brings up images of a lovely, graceful, exotic, and model-like woman. The exact opposite of how you sometimes feel. You being insecure at this stage caused your subconscious to create that name.
Unless your hubby has given you reasons to think he's fooling around....just relax, and know that everything's going as it should be. Explain your fears to your husband. Communication is the key. Sometimes it's nice to hear that we're pretty, especially when we're pregnant. If you can, try to take a 'me' day once a week. Take a relaxing oatmeal bath (if allowed by the dr. and don't use bubblebath soap, as it can cause a yeast infection) give yourself a facial, do your hair and make-up, and go for a walk or a trip window shopping. Besides being good exercise, it'll lift your spirits, and relieve some of your anxiety. Just a simple day for yourself to feel pretty, and pampered. You are accomplishing one of the true miracles of nature...creating life.
Congrats on the new little human you're carrying, to you and your hubby! Hugs n' Blessings! J
