It grows a lot, starts small like a fist and by term its huge, reaching up near ur ribs. After delivery it slowly shrinks back over weeks. Both times I was shocked how my belly went down gradually.

From a tiny lemon to a giant watermelon basically haha. By the 8th month I felt like there was a whole melon stall inside me. Nature really stretches us out, no wonder we waddle.
