How big should your belly get during pregnancy?

Answer 1

Depending on the size of your baby. Some people are small while others are big. When I was pregnant, my belly wasn't that big, I measured around 32, 33.

Answer 2

It depends on the woman, the baby, how she's caring for herself and the baby, etc. I'm due Sept. 21. I went to a pre-natal appointment today and of the obvious pregnant women in there, I was the smallest. I do not know when the others were due, though. A woman was talking with one couple, but I didn't catch a due date, as I was too busy thinking of other things.

To me, my belly looks big. Yet, seeing that I was I only had 165-170 pounds on my six foot tall body to begin with, and I've kept a good diet of real, whole foods, I've not gained much.

I don't know how big I am around, but length wise, my doctor measured 34 (I guess that's inches, I didn't ask).

Answer 3

I think it depends on where you carry the baby and the size of the baby. I am normally small, about 120 lbs, but at the end of my pregnancy I had a 40" waist. I could wear my husband's pants. It goes back down after you have the baby, though. Check out this link to see pictures of pregnant bellies to get a better idea.

Answer 4

Big enough for a baby to fit in there

Answer 5

depends on how you carry, at the end of mine i believe i measured at 35

Answer 6

it depends, usually at the late stages about twice the size of your head will do.
