Renae W, a U.S. mom, was very active during her sixth pregnancy and shared pregnancy – belly pics on TikTok.
At first, she posted sobriety – recovery videos, but switched focus after getting pregnant. Sharing her pregnancy and huge belly on social media, Renae faced doubt, even from a doctor.
Her big belly drew lots of attention and a large following. Early videos got little engagement, but as her belly grew, her videos got millions of views. Many thought she had multiple babies, some guessed eight. But Renae was sure it was just one.
She didn’t give a medical reason for her big belly, fueling rumors. Renae said everything was normal despite doctors’ comments. She had an ultrasound, with normal fluid and the baby a week and four days ahead.
Still, some criticized her. A doctor, who should be supportive, was shocked by her belly pics and said she should worry. Renae said her short height made her belly seem bigger.
Some defended her, saying every pregnancy is different.
Finally, Renae proved the doubters wrong. She had a scheduled C – section and gave birth to a healthy big boy. The baby weighed 9lb 8oz, was 22 & 1/2 inches tall, and had a 15 – inch head from his dad.
Renae posted videos to show her baby’s size. We wish her well!
