Most likely as a prank or a joke, or perhaps when taking on a role in a play.

Question

I don't have these things. Can I use animals' toys?

Community Answer

You can, but it might show strange bumps from under your shirt. Instead, just put a ball under your shirt. This will create a bump that'll make you look pregnant.

Question

What are ways to tell if a person is faking a pregnancy?

Sireniti Ramos

Community Answer

If you ask for an ultrasound picture and their name is not on it, if they don't waddle, and if they don't take a lot of restroom breaks, they may not actually be pregnant.

Question

Can I use a beach ball to look pregnant?

Community Answer

You could do so, as long as you adjust it so it looks real, by using clothes or other items to help balance it out, then it might look real. Be careful it doesn't slip out when you move, as it is slippery around the surface; tuck it into tights or pants.

Question

What size pillow should I use?

Community Answer

It depends on the size of a person's body. Choose a size of pillow that looks natural to one's body type or feels comfortable and will stay in place.

Question

So I am trying to make a movie/ TV show and the mom is pregnant. There will be scenes were we will use her belly. I can’t afford to buy one or make one, so what should I do?

Gemma Brandon

Community Answer

You can use a ball or a pillow and tie it around the waist. A soccer ball will work. But you'll need to keep her clothes. For close-ups of a naked belly, try finding stock footage that is copyright free and free for you to download and splice in.

Definitely refrain from presenting yourself in public as pregnant, If it's just for a laugh at home or with friends, then it's perfectly fine.

Question

Can a kid be pregnant at 8?

CLARA MAGYAR

Community Answer

The youngest kid to become pregnant was at 5 years old, but she had precocious puberty. It is possible to get pregnant after you get your period, but it is important to wait until you have a stable home, job, and money source. Since you are eight, you shouldn't try to get pregnant because you have none of these. Wait until you turn 18 and get a job.
