Citation needed date May 2009 It should not be confused with false pregnancy , where the woman mistakenly believes that she is pregnant. Techniques Women who wish to look pregnant, generally for social or psychological purposes, have the option of body suits and the like to wear under their clothes. It can be done by using pillows or pads, or light weighing small balls with a round shape to simulate a pregnant abdomen. Empathy bellies are a special body suit available by mail order to imitate a pregnant belly, along with enlarged breasts and its build will produce fetal movement as if the wearer felt the unborn baby move . http www.empathybelly.org home.html On that note, women have the option of using artificially supplied hormones to cause their bodies to effectively experience a false pregnancy, which would appear to be the truest form of simulated pregnancy yet discovered. Reasons There are some men whom for reasons want to dramatize a simulated pregnancy, which is a subject of comedy and ridicule, but they could indicate a curiosity factor to do a simulated pregnancy, since males generally cannot get pregnant and to experience what many women have experienced. In popular culture Simulated pregnancy is a popular topic in the media and has appeared in shows such as Desperate Housewives and Glee TV series Glee and the film Labor Pains .
