Renae W’s pregnancy went viral for one jaw-dropping reason—her baby bump was massive. So big, in fact, that strangers on the internet joked she might be carrying eight babies. Some quipped things like, “There’s a grown man in there,” or “He’s gonna come out driving a Honda Civic.”
While many comments were lighthearted, a few took a harsher tone—including one from someone claiming to be a doctor. Renae clapped back, reminding viewers that both she and her baby were healthy, and that medical speculation online, especially from strangers, was unhelpful and inappropriate.
She reassured her followers that she didn’t have excess fluid, gestational diabetes, or other complications—just a naturally big bump, possibly due to her petite frame. And despite the internet theories, Renae gave birth to just one baby boy on February 18 via C-section. He was a healthy 9 pounds, 8 ounces and 22.5 inches long.
Her video, filmed just before delivery, racked up over 5 million views. And though the bump brought discomfort, Renae admits she misses it a little—especially since this baby was her long-hoped-for rainbow baby. Now, just months later, she’s nearly back to her pre-pregnancy size—with barely a stretch mark to show for it.
