Some people criticized her for showing off her belly and made nasty comments about her size and physique. However, Cartwright has not remained silent and has responded.

She wrote: “Believe it or not, some women don’t really show at 16 weeks pregnant, while others have pronounced bumps. The wide variety of baby bumps can be attributed to everything … Whatever you do, don’t compare your 16 weeks pregnant belly to anyone else’s.”

CELEBRATING HALLOWEEN

The Kentucky native took to her Instagram to share the costumes she and her husband wore on Halloween. In the images, Cartwright is seen as the Grinch and her husband as the reindeer-dog Max.

In the photos, the TV personality proudly shows her growing belly while smiling. The happiness and bliss of sweet waiting make the face of the mom-to-be, glow even under makeup.
