Food baby
Significado: A bloated, protruding stomach from eating too much.
A 'food baby' is the rounded belly that appears after eating a large meal. The humorous comparison to pregnancy makes it a fun, self-deprecating term. It's especially common after holiday meals, buffets, and Thanksgiving. People often pat their stomachs and announce their food baby.
