Let's talk about D and B bellies today! Generally B bellies have an indentation at the belly button, and D bellies don't. D bellies are what you see most of the time on plus-size models.

Shown here is my own belly, a B belly. What shape is your belly? Did you receive any messages about the worth of your belly depending on its shape?

@lindleyashline I didn't realize the D/B belly thing was a *thing* until I was pregnant and was hanging out in pregnancy forums. The D vs. B belly angst was prevalent there; all the pregnant people wanted a "pretty" D belly. Meanwhile I started with a B belly and continued to have one while pregnant and I was like "???"
@menelie It is wiiiiild to me that a "pretty" pregnancy belly is even a thing.
@lindleyashline Pregnancy forums are *wild*.
