Fitness guru Chontel Duncan and her friend Nat’s pregnancy turned viral when Chontel posted a picture of their vastly different bumps. Then 21.5 weeks pregnant, Chontel made the news with her super toned belly as compared to Nat’s much bigger one, making a stand for the celebration of all bumps regardless of shapes and sizes. The two have now given birth to healthy baby boys and we could not be happier for them. Here at Mummyfique, we too believe that big or small, round or otherwise, so long as the baby is healthy, all bumps are just as beautiful. In fact, here are some of our favourite bump moments that have been shared on social media — just the thing to lift up our spirits as we start off the new week.
