Picture of pregnant belly growing forward

After pregnancy, as the fetus gradually grows, the abdomen will also grow significantly. This is the most normal thing. If the pregnant woman's abdomen does not gradually grow, it means that the development of the fetus is abnormal and you need to go to the hospital for further observation and treatment. Below is a brief and detailed introduction to the reasons why the belly grows upwards during pregnancy.

Reasons why the belly grows upwards during pregnancy

1. As the fetus grows, the pregnant woman's abdomen will also grow larger during pregnancy, but the size of the pregnant woman's abdomen will be affected by the thickness of the pregnant woman's abdominal fat. Therefore, women with different body shapes may have significantly different abdominal sizes during pregnancy. If you want to accurately grasp the size of the fetus, you can do a color Doppler ultrasound to accurately measure the various diameters of the fetus's growth, which will give you a more accurate grasp of the size of the fetus.

2. This is of course uncertain, which is related to one's own physical fitness and the baby's developmental size, etc. It is a factor in various aspects and there are very large individual differences. The front and back walls of the fetus must also be considered. The back wall is not very obvious in the belly. But it will usually be visible around April, because even if it is usually small, the belly will still be visible.

How does your abdomen look different during pregnancy?

1. The shape of a pregnant woman's abdomen is largely determined by the size of the fetus. Although boys are indeed heavier than girls on average when they are born, this difference does not make the protruding abdomen of the pregnant woman a noticeable difference.

2. In addition, the posture of the fetus in the uterus will also affect the appearance of the mother's abdomen. If the baby is in the uterus with its back to the mother, the mother's belly will be more prominent. On the contrary, if the baby is in the uterus facing the mother, the abdomen will appear flatter.

3. This has nothing to do with the child’s gender. Therefore, these methods of determining the sex of the fetus based on the appearance of the abdomen are actually blind guesses.

The above is a brief and detailed introduction to the reasons why the belly grows upwards during pregnancy. In general, the abdomen is relatively small in the early stages of pregnancy. As the abdomen grows in the late stages of pregnancy, you will feel that the abdomen has grown upwards. One reason is related to visual impact, and the other is related to the growth of the abdomen. In fact, the abdomen grows from the middle to the surrounding areas slowly, which is a very normal thing.
