The Enormous Stomach that Captivated Millions
Her colossal abdomen was the initial reason for her sudden surge in attention and a growing online following. At first, her uploaded videos didn’t gain much traction, but as time passed, her popularity skyrocketed into the millions. Speculations were rife, with some claiming she was expecting as many as eight babies. However, Reina, the young mother, firmly believed she was carrying only one child. “Certainly, there is just one,” she stated unequivocally in one of her videos.
Reina did not disclose any medical reasons for her enlarged stomach, which only fueled more rumors and speculations. She reassured her viewers, saying, “I recently underwent an ultrasound; the fluids are normal, and the baby is healthy.”
Medical Controversy and Supportive Fans
However, not everyone was supportive. A physician, who one would expect to offer encouragement, expressed concern when he saw images of her prominent baby bump, even suggesting she should be worried. This prompted Reina to respond, asserting that it was inappropriate for a doctor to comment on her pregnancy in such a manner. She wrote, “As a physician, he should be ashamed of what he told me, especially since I am not his patient.”
Reina attributed her seemingly large abdomen to her petite stature, explaining that it made her belly appear larger than it actually was. She mentioned having given birth to a son who weighed 4 kilograms at birth a few years ago. Nevertheless, her followers found it difficult to believe that only one child was inside her enormous belly, with some humorously suggesting, “I believe there are at least four in there.”
A Unique Pregnancy Journey
Throughout her pregnancy, Reina gained 18 kilograms, and her devoted followers witnessed her belly growing in stages. When she submitted her video at 37 weeks of pregnancy, it garnered a remarkable 37 million views. Fortunately, some individuals came to her defense, emphasizing the uniqueness of each pregnancy and the impossibility of judging someone else’s experience.
On February 18, the skeptics who doubted she was carrying just one child were silenced. Reina gave birth to an exceptionally large baby via planned cesarean section, weighing over 4 kilograms and measuring quite long. Reina confirmed that the baby inherited his father’s large cranium but, most importantly, was healthy.
Life After Birth
Reina felt relief after giving birth, no longer carrying the weight of her enlarged abdomen, which had caused her discomfort throughout her pregnancy. She stated that it felt strange not having it anymore. Her followers remained curious about her postpartum journey.
Reina responded to the criticism she received eleven weeks after her cesarean section, saying, “Five days following the cesarean delivery, I lost the 4 kilograms of the baby plus an additional 4.5 kilograms.” She emphasized that every pregnancy is unique and expressed her love and gratitude for her body’s incredible ability to bring five beautiful children into the world.
In this tale of an extraordinary pregnancy journey, Reina’s story serves as a reminder that our bodies and experiences are unique, and judgment should be replaced with understanding and support.
