HARSH REMARKS ABOUT HER BIG BELLY “THIS IS THE WORST PREGNANT BELLY I’VE EVER SEEN.”
A mother, Eliana Rodriguez, aged 29, recently welcomed her second child, Sebastian, into the world. Despite a healthy pregnancy and a healthy child, Rodriguez faced comments about her “large” baby belly, such as “You are big,” “You seem to be expecting twins,” and “Have you looked to see if there’s another kid in there?”
Despite these remarks, both Rodriguez’s pregnancy and her unborn child were in good health. It’s essential to recognize that a significant belly during pregnancy can be a natural aspect of a woman’s body development, and Rodriguez reassured everyone that she and her toddler were both safe and well.
“I experienced significant pregnancies; both my children weighed 8.3 pounds at delivery. Sofia, my three-year-old daughter, measured 19.5 inches, while my newborn son was 20.5 inches long.
Though Instagram trolls are easy to dismiss, Rodriguez highlighted that people are naturally curious in person as well.
Rodriguez first gained attention two months ago.”
“I am an open person, so I was excited to share,” she concluded. “We were hoping for a son when we tried for a second child.”
During her pregnancy, Rodriguez carried a significant amount of amniotic fluid, which fills the amniotic sac, protecting the fetus and allowing for movement.
“They measured the baby’s size and the amount of fluids,” she explained.
Despite facing intrusive questioning, Rodriguez emphasized the importance of refraining from making pregnancy and body-shaming remarks. She pointed out that such comments can negatively impact women experiencing pregnancy or postpartum depression, leading them to end up “in a bad place” due to body image criticism.
“I understand that some people may lack empathy for others,” Rodriguez remarked. “As a compassionate woman, I sympathize with anyone facing hurtful comments,” she explained.
