Do hips get wider after each subsequent pregnancy?

Answer by  LASH (142)

I have given birth to four large boys. Each weighted over nine pounds. My experance has been that my hips got wider after my oldest son was born, and stayed as wide as they were after his birth. They did not get any wider after the other three were born

Your hips will only get wider if you fail to lose the weight from the former pregnancies. This is an old wives tale that has been around for a long time and people still beleive in it.

No,its not necessary that your hips get wider that is if you exercise regularly. If you rest all the time then yes! you have wider hips.
