You don’t see this on television or in the movies much, but right after a woman gives birth, there’s not really a dramatic change to her shape. She still looks pregnant; she just looks … less pregnant. In many cases, though, the dramatic change does occur over the following week or two. For my wife, she was actually back to her original weight and wearing her regular clothes by the time she left the hospital. With the first kid, anyway.

NB: Miranda has her hat pulled down over her eyes, making her look a little like Donald from the old Fat Albert cartoon show. My son did this all the time when he was a newborn. He’d somehow pull the hat down every time we put one on, like he preferred it that way. It’s just one of those weird little details from real life which I felt I needed to include.
