Do you look pregnant...

Vii Lii · January 2012

From the front?

I always find it so interesting how different women have different kinds of bumps depending on their pregnancy and body shape. So I guess my question is, if someone took a picture of you flat-facing the camera, could a stranger pick it up and say "oh you're pregnant here"?

I was browsing a friend's album on facebook a long time ago and saw her at a shower .All her frontal shots she looked normal, and because of her dress too I didn't think she was pregnant. But from the side, wowza! She was 8 months pregnant and huge! It was so interesting to see.

I look pregnant from the front, but not from the back. My BFF was so wide with her DD that you could tell she was pregnant from every angle but I get commented a lot that I'm carrying all in the front and in the belly.

Not really, but it would all depend on what top I was wearing since most of my prepg longer tops still fit. From the back, absolutely not. I am completely fine with it though.

From the front I look almost normal, but I turn side ways and forget it! I'm all belly! When I'm at my desk at work patients don't notice, but when I stand there's always a little gasp. Oh the joys of becoming a mama..lol

I'm juuuust starting to. Its funny! I love looking in the mirror straight on, I still have a waist!

My tummy looks huge from the front. From the back I look like my usual non pregnant self.

I am a plus-size mommy to be.. So if you had not seen me per-pregnancy you may hesitate to ask from a side view or front view. But if you know me its very easy to tell from either angel. ...however from the back you'd never know.

I'm all front too and just belly. But in somethings I don't really look pregnant. Infact Friday I had seven people who I know from my office just flabbergasted that they didn't know I was pregnant nor was I due in less than a month. It kinda cracked me up actually. from the side there is no hiding it!

Not really. However I do wear a lot of black so that could be camouflaging it. With DD I definitely carried her slow and wide, with this pregnancy I am more up and out. You can definitely tell if I turn to the side.

GeekMom · January 2012

Nope! Not from the back either! I've always been bigger in the hips so I've only grown out really!

It depends on what I'm wearing whether or not you can tell from the front. If you knew me pre-pregnancy then you would probably be able to tell, but a stranger might not. You definitely can't tell from behind, I'm carrying all in front and all belly.

I definitely look pregnant from the front, my belly is nice and round! I haven't had a waist in about 2 months.

MrsKilduff · January 2012

I'm all belly. From the front I look very pregnant, from the back not at all.

I look pregnant from the front. I have a nice basketball, carried the same way with DS. Sadly this time my butt got real big too:( But I love the nice pregnant belly!

sparks2987 · January 2012

If you take a picture of me, I look a little wider but not pregnant. I am all belly, but just recently started to get wider too! My belly sticks out really far and it very round. My hips, thighs and butt havent grown yet ( hopefully they dont!)

runrinserepeat · January 2012

I still have a bit of a waist, but depending on what I'm wearing, you can definitely tell that there's a bump there. It's way more evident when I turn to the side, though.

MollySm · January 2012

For me you can definitely tell from the side, but not as much from the front. At least in pictures, if I stand forward facing I look plumper than before, but not pregnant. From the side I feel like I look huge!

I look pregnant from all angles. :b

pennyandandy · January 2012

It depends what I wear. Most of the time I do, but if I am wearing a hoodie or a bigger shirt it will just look like I'm pudgy. I don't look any different from the back. From the side I look huge!

momawof4 · January 2012

Def wearing a basketball! Dont think I look different from the back, but am wider considering I have stretch marks on my love handels.... so embarassing lol.

Ya Never Know · January 2012

I definitely look pregnant from the side, but not necessarily from the front. I was at the hairdresser the other day, and when I met her face to face, she didn't take notice of my belly... but when I turned to sit down in the chair, she definitely noticed.

My friend is pregnant, and whenever we go anywhere together, people always start asking her when she is due etc... and they never ask me. Either they can't tell that I'm pregnant, or they just think I'm unapproachable? lol Meh.. whatever.

this, exactly

From the front, yes, though that's a pretty recent development. Used to depend on what I was wearing -- now, even though the effect is reduced in my husband's t-shirts, lol, I still look pretty darn pregnant!

From the back, no; I just look like I've gained a bit of weight.

From the side... I feel like I look like the prow of a ship.
