Maternity photoshoots have become very popular these days. However, due to extensive retouching, the majority of pregnant women’s images on social media look alike. Even in movies, pregnant women always appear to have a flawlessly smooth, round tummy, which is sometimes untrue.
Society expects every mother to have a perfectly rounded and petite baby bump – when pregnant bellies, just like human bodies, come in all shapes and sizes. Luckily, pregnant women are not standing still and are constantly reminding folks that bumps are unique to each person.
Baby bumps come in all shapes and sizes. And they are all equally beautiful. Some women get very big bumps while other women’s bellies don’t grow much. Today, in honor of body diversity and positivity, we’ve gathered some images of expectant women with genuine baby bumps. View them in the gallery down below.
