id="Influences_on_Plus_Size_Pregnancy_Bump_Shapes"></span>Influences on Plus Size Pregnancy Bump Shapes<span class="ez-toc-section-end"></span></h2> <p>Before we review the various plus size baby bump shapes, let's discuss the factors that influence the appearance of bumps during <a href="https://plussizebirth.com/plus-size-pregnancy/" data-lasso-id="12386">plus size pregnancy</a>.</p> <p>Belly shapes during pregnancy can vary widely due to a number of factors:</p> <h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-body-fat-distribution"><span class="ez-toc-section" id="Body_Fat_Distribution"></span><strong>Body Fat Distribution</strong><span class="ez-toc-section-end"></span></h3> <p>Individuals with higher body fat distribution around the waist and hips may experience a wider belly shape, causing the pregnancy bump to extend horizontally.</p> <h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-muscle-tone-and-structure"><span class="ez-toc-section" id="Muscle_Tone_and_Structure"></span><strong>Muscle Tone and Structure</strong><span class="ez-toc-section-end"></span></h3> <p>The strength and tone of the abdominal muscles can influence how the belly expands. Weaker or more relaxed muscles might cause the belly to spread to the sides or form a B-shape.</p> <h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-baby-s-position"><span class="ez-toc-section" id="Babys_Position"></span><strong>Baby's Position</strong><span class="ez-toc-section-end"></span></h3> <p>The baby's position can affect someone's pregnancy belly shape.

This helps provide structure and smoothness while maintaining comfort.</p> <p><strong>Empire Waistlines</strong>: Clothing with an empire waistline can accentuate the upper part of your belly while allowing the lower apron belly to drape naturally.</p> <p><strong>Maternity Bands</strong>: <a href="https://plussizebirth.com/plus-size-maternity-support-belt/" data-lasso-id="15045">Plus size maternity bands</a> can offer extra support for the B-belly and apron belly, helping to distribute weight more evenly and providing comfort.</p> <p><strong>Supportive Underwear:</strong> High-waisted, supportive <a href="https://plussizebirth.com/best-plus-size-maternity-underwear-options/" data-lasso-id="15046">plus size maternity underwear</a> can also help smooth the silhouette.</p> <h4 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-b-belly-with-apron-belly-pictures-of-plus-size-pregnancy"><span class="ez-toc-section" id="B-Belly_with_Apron_Belly_Pictures_of_Plus_Size_Pregnancy"></span><strong>B-Belly with Apron Belly Pictures of Plus Size Pregnancy</strong><span class="ez-toc-section-end"></span></h4> <p>Below, you'll see photos of people proudly sharing their B-belly with an apron belly, helping others feel less alone and more empowered during their pregnancy journeys.</p> <div class="wp-block-image"> <figure class="aligncenter size-large"><a href="https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/37-weeks-b-belly-with-apron-belly-plus-size-pregnant-.jpg" data-lasso-id="15020"><noscript><img decoding="async" width="683" height="1024" data-pin-url="https://plussizebirth.com/plus-size-pregnancy-bumps/?tp_image_id=36881" data-pin-title="Plus Size Pregnancy Bumps: From D to B-Bellies, Love Your Shape" src="https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/37-weeks-b-belly-with-apron-belly-plus-size-pregnant--683x1024.jpg" alt="woman who is 37 weeks b-belly with apron belly plus size pregnant" class="wp-image-36881" srcset="https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/37-weeks-b-belly-with-apron-belly-plus-size-pregnant--683x1024.jpg 683w, https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/37-weeks-b-belly-with-apron-belly-plus-size-pregnant--200x300.jpg 200w, https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/37-weeks-b-belly-with-apron-belly-plus-size-pregnant--768x1152.jpg 768w, https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/37-weeks-b-belly-with-apron-belly-plus-size-pregnant--640x960.jpg 640w, https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/37-weeks-b-belly-with-apron-belly-plus-size-pregnant--720x1080.jpg 720w, https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/37-weeks-b-belly-with-apron-belly-plus-size-pregnant--800x1200.jpg 800w, https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/37-weeks-b-belly-with-apron-belly-plus-size-pregnant--150x225.jpg 150w, https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/37-weeks-b-belly-with-apron-belly-plus-size-pregnant-.jpg 1000w" sizes="(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw -

I was told I had to lose weight in order to get pregnant as well as find a husband. So, I spent the first 27 years of my life ashamed of myself and scared to be close to anyone because how can someone love me when I don't know how to love myself? Fast forward to my 30s when I met my wonderful husband before we even attempted to get pregnant. And I was already a few weeks along! I had some pelvic girdle pain and lots of morning sickness but overall I enjoyed my pregnancy. Feeling my baby kick and seeing my tummy grow even though it wasn't your typical “pregnancy bump” I was so proud. I had my cousin take some photos for us. We got dressed up. And I'm so thankful I did this.”</p> <div class="wp-block-image"> <figure class="aligncenter size-large"><a href="https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/24-weeks-pregnant-b-belly-with-apron.jpg" data-lasso-id="15024"><noscript><img decoding="async" width="683" height="1024" data-pin-url="https://plussizebirth.com/plus-size-pregnancy-bumps/?tp_image_id=36908" data-pin-title="Plus Size Pregnancy Bumps: From D to B-Bellies, Love Your Shape" src="https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/24-weeks-pregnant-b-belly-with-apron-683x1024.jpg" alt="24 weeks pregnant, b belly with apron" class="wp-image-36908" srcset="https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/24-weeks-pregnant-b-belly-with-apron-683x1024.jpg 683w, https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/24-weeks-pregnant-b-belly-with-apron-200x300.jpg 200w, https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/24-weeks-pregnant-b-belly-with-apron-768x1152.jpg 768w, https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/24-weeks-pregnant-b-belly-with-apron-640x960.jpg 640w, https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/24-weeks-pregnant-b-belly-with-apron-720x1080.jpg 720w, https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/24-weeks-pregnant-b-belly-with-apron-800x1200.jpg 800w, https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/24-weeks-pregnant-b-belly-with-apron-150x225.jpg 150w, https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/24-weeks-pregnant-b-belly-with-apron.jpg 1000w" sizes="(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 40px), 720px"></noscript><img decoding="async" width="683" height="1024" data-pin-url="https://plussizebirth.com/plus-size-pregnancy-bumps/?tp_image_id=36908" data-pin-title="Plus Size Pregnancy Bumps: From D to B-Bellies, Love Your Shape" src="data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg'%20width='683'%20height='1024'%20viewBox='0%200%20683%201024'%3E%3C/svg%3E" alt="24 weeks pregnant, b belly with apron" class="wp-image-36908 lazyload perfmatters-lazy" data-pin-media="https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/24-weeks-pregnant-b-belly-with-apron.jpg" id="mv-trellis-img-56" data-trellis-processed="1" data-src="https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/24-weeks-pregnant-b-belly-with-apron-683x1024.jpg" data-srcset="https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/24-weeks-pregnant-b-belly-with-apron-683x1024.jpg 683w, https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/24-weeks-pregnant-b-belly-with-apron-200x300.jpg 200w, https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/24-weeks-pregnant-b-belly-with-apron-768x1152.jpg 768w, https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/24-weeks-pregnant-b-belly-with-apron-640x960.jpg 640w, https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/24-weeks-pregnant-b-belly-with-apron-720x1080.jpg 720w, https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/24-weeks-pregnant-b-belly-with-apron-800x1200.jpg 800w, https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/24-weeks-pregnant-b-belly-with-apron-150x225.jpg 150w, https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/24-weeks-pregnant-b-belly-with-apron.jpg 1000w" data-sizes="(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 40px), 720px" /><noscript><img decoding="async" width="683" height="1024" data-pin-url="https://plussizebirth.com/plus-size-pregnancy-bumps/?tp_image_id=36908" data-pin-title="Plus Size Pregnancy Bumps: From D to B-Bellies, Love Your Shape" src="https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/24-weeks-pregnant-b-belly-with-apron-683x1024.jpg" alt="24 weeks pregnant, b belly with apron" class="wp-image-36908 lazyload" srcset="https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/24-weeks-pregnant-b-belly-with-apron-683x1024.jpg 683w, https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/24-weeks-pregnant-b-belly-with-apron-200x300.jpg 200w, https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/24-weeks-pregnant-b-belly-with-apron-768x1152.jpg 768w, https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/24-weeks-pregnant-b-belly-with-apron-640x960.jpg 640w, https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/24-weeks-pregnant-b-belly-with-apron-720x1080.jpg 720w, https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/24-weeks-pregnant-b-belly-with-apron-800x1200.jpg 800w, https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/24-weeks-pregnant-b-belly-with-apron-150x225.jpg 150w, https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/24-weeks-pregnant-b-belly-with-apron.jpg 1000w" sizes="(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 40px), 720px" data-pin-media="https://plussizebirth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/24-weeks-pregnant-b-belly-with-apron.jpg" id="mv-trellis-img-56" loading="lazy" data-trellis-processed="1"></noscript></a></figure></div> <p class="has-text-align-left">“It is the only bump photo I have!

I wish I had taken more! I don't think the lack of photos has a ton do with body image; more with not being sure about how I felt about becoming a mom. However, I only gained 14 pounds in my pregnancy and did not have much change in my belly, so I think that made me feel kind of awkward about photos. It was tough to not be publicly recognized as pregnant. I teach at an elementary school. The kids had no clue I was pregnant, even the day before delivery. That hurt because I had a coworker who was pregnant at the same time, and the changes to her body were very visible.
