‘My belly is so big someone asked me if I was having a toddler'

“I’m 38 weeks pregnant with my sixth baby… every pregnancy has been like this,” the mum says.

Renae’s latest pregnancy was not her first rodeo.

The US mum has six children, and each pregnancy, she has the same symptoms: difficulty sleeping and general discomfort, all because her belly was so big.

She shared progress updates on TikTok regularly until baby number six, Eliana, was born at the end of 2023. Although she assured viewers she was only having one child, followers were certain she was pregnant with multiples.

At 38 weeks she shared her final pregnancy post.

“I miss sleeping through the night I wake up every day between 3-5am and can’t go back to sleep,” she captioned a video of herself showing off her pregnant belly.

“Just uncomfortable at this point and so ready. Only six days to go until you’re getting evicted little one! I can’t wait.

“This has been one of my toughest pregnancies.”

“Looks like there’s quite a few inmates in there,” one person joked.

Mum shares pregnancy belly

“OMFG looks like more than one in there,” said another.

“Is that just one??” asked a third person.

Renae found internet fame in 2022 when she was pregnant with her fifth child. Her belly was similarly big, with people guessing she had as many as six babies.

Others guessed she had a medical condition, but the mum replied to each comment, saying there was nothing abnormal about her pregnancy: no gestational diabetes, no polyhydramnios (extra amniotic fluid).

Others suggested she might be shorter in stature, making the baby bump appear larger.

“The baby living some VIP life in there with more space than my room,” wrote one person. “Probs even has a private cinema in there.”

“Momma you got a toddler in there!” wrote another person.
