Influencer Georgia Simone Pitt has been subjected to online trolling after sharing images of her 'huge' six-week baby bump, with critics claiming it was 'just bloat'. The 32-year-old legal PA from London began concealing her stomach at work shortly after discovering she was pregnant, following a previous miscarriage.
Pitt, who found out she was pregnant at just three weeks and five days, felt her belly was noticeably larger by six weeks. She kept the pregnancy secret initially due to a miscarriage four months earlier, wanting to ensure the baby had a heartbeat before telling colleagues.
Falling pregnant in October, Pitt found it easier to hide her bump with winter clothing such as jumpers and long cardigans. However, by nine weeks, colleagues began asking directly if she was pregnant, prompting her to reveal the news earlier than planned for support in case of another miscarriage.
Despite receiving support online, Pitt faced mocking comments from trolls. One person said: 'It’s not the baby bump I’d be worried about.' Another added: 'THAT. IS. NOT. A. PREGNANCY. BELLY. It is you, you just have a tummy.' A third commented: 'It’s not even the size of a blueberry, that’s not a baby bump, it’s just bloating.'
Pitt, now 32 weeks pregnant, said the criticism does not affect her, adding: 'Thankfully, I have thick skin... People who want to mock or put down a pregnant woman are unhappy with their own lives.' She noted that scans show her baby is measuring normally on the 50th centile, despite her larger bump.
