They actually shot all of her scenes earlier that week coz she was about to go into labor. She had slight contractions a few days prior and they knew they would run out of time with her.

The way they wrote Angela’s actions to hide her actress’s real life pregnancy is amazing and suits really well! At the dinner party when Angela clutches onto her bag on the sofa the whole time. It shows that Angela is stingy and reserved. Then, with the proposal scene, Angela is clearly uncomfortable with the romantic public display and doesn’t want to join Andy on stage. Everything, the way they fit Angela’s character makes sense

Michael meant to say "oaky aftertaste," which is the taste a food or drink leaves in your mouth after you've already swallowed. "Afterbirth" is things like the placenta and such that come out of a woman after she gives birth. The two words seem similar but refer to two very different things 😂

[@guardianofthegalaxy2051]

Also the ice sculpture to “hide” it has giant hole in the middle, you can see her belly and it has no bump.

[@that1person695]

You can kind of see her bump. It's a little hard since her shirt is very loose. You can tell the rest of her body has gotten a bit bigger. But I think she was in the very early stages of pregnancy then so you wouldn't have noticed as much.

[@whit9912]

Even with small bumps they do what they can to hide them because people do notice the slight changes, and it can ruin them being able to announce it when they're ready. It's happened a ton of times where it wasn't hidden early on and the announcement and surprise was taken from the parents

[@theKbott]

They literally went ouf of their way to show her belly through the heart shaped hole in the ice sculpture lol

I dont even understand how you can eat that late at night and routinely get enough sleep, whilst also, know, going to work in the morning.

[@eveninthesoup6519]

@@catlinboy actually, the real reason why we Spaniards can pull that off is that our timetable is different than the rest of the world's. Adults start working at 8-9, and the earliest college class is at 8.30, so there's at least seven hours of sleep if you want to go to bed at midnight. But also, we are used to it, and those who aren't can just eat their dinner and go to bed earlier, nobody judges them

[@kateoc8]

It's so hot in the middle of the day that it makes perfect sense for Europeans in hot Latin countries.. South of France also - in trades that involve outdoor work, to work from around 5.30 am til 11.30 or so, then again from 4pm til around 8 or sundown. Only idiots would work in the heat of the day.

@@eloiserose3993 I'm guessing the scenes have to be written in advance, so that you have the time to commission the ice sculpture and get it delivered before filming the scene. If you know an actress is pregnant, you can't necessarily when it will start to show and how visible it will be, especially since for some people, you can wake up one morning with a dramatically different figure than the last (happens a lot in denial of pregnancies, but it can probably happen as well in other cases). In the end, the loose clothes probably would have been enough, but they perhaps couldn't know it for sure when they wrote the scene and they decided to be cautious.
