Some pregnant bellies are round, while others are flattened. These shapes of pregnancy may make many mothers particularly curious and worried, thinking that various shapes may represent the healthy development of the fetus. Why are pregnancy belly shapes different?
1. Fetal size. Because pregnant women have both round and pointed bellies, if the fetus is larger or there is a significant change in fetal position, it can also affect the shape of the belly. Some parents may initially be concerned about this situation, fearing that their baby's development may have problems. However, most of them are normal and will not have a significant impact on the baby's development. With the passage of time, the size of the fetus will also increase, and the pregnant belly will also enlarge.
2. Fetal position. Some fetuses are located in front of the mother's uterus, which is more prominent. And some fetal positions may be located at the back of the mother's uterus, so the pregnant woman's belly will be relatively flat. Of course, some fetuses can still move during normal times, which may also lead to changes in the shape of the pregnant belly.
3. Pregnant mother's body shape. If the mother's body size is relatively small, the fetus often becomes particularly prominent when it grows up, and the horizontal development space of the belly is compressed, and can only be pushed forward. In this case, the belly will show a tendency to be round and pregnant with a larger belly shape.
