i have an uncle, who is sorta large around the middle, and we were all sitting out at his house for a picnic, and my sister hopped up on his lap,put her head against his stomache, and yelled, "SHH! i'm listening for the baby!" my aunt was very pregnant at the time, and she assumed since my uncle was so large like her, he was having a baby, too! from then on, any larger person she saw, male or female, so automatically assumed they were having a baby!
