Nicaragua Women Compete In A Biggest Baby Bump Contest. But We Thought Size Doesn’t Matter!
We’ve all heard of men comparing sizes and whatnot but what would happen if women started comparing sizes. Well, don’t be surprised because that’s exactly what pregnant women in Nicaragua’s capital Managua did on Monday. People of Nicaragua were celebrating Mother’s Day on Monday when they held a baby bump contest and 19 women participated in this bizarre competition. And now, a clip from the event has gone viral on social media.
A news agency shared a video of the contest on social media which shows three women standing on a stage flaunting their baby bumps while several other pregnant women can be seen sitting on chairs and walking around the venue. Some women can be seen grooving to music as well while someone can be seen measuring the baby bump of a pregnant woman while people around cheer on. Take a look at this interesting video.
