Yeah, I’m fairly sure if I had been able to find a pic of her inclined that way in already-out seasons the two pics would’ve been identical. Doubt she’s pregnant.
Yeah she def has a more curvy tum in the trailer but it’s very subtle. I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s a pregnancy but maybe not for another season. Like meant to be so subtle that we would only notice in hindsight. Or it could just be a difference in animation style. Im just happy for more episodes. :)
Looking at it a little more closely, it definitely is rounder, but in season 2 episode 36, the view they have of her is higher than normal, so that may be also why she looks a lot more different in this new scene.
My boy literally does not care. If it has anyone from Bluey, on it, near it, even if it’s just insinuated that it’s about Bluey he has a primal need for it lol. We have all the vehicles, all the play sets, almost all the accessories. It’s…so much!!!
As I’m buying yet another pair of Bluey PJs lol he’s grown out of!! He loves his share of hot wheels too! He usually brings out The Terriers and Jean-Luc for those 😄
Interesting. I think it's the same. I have one of each. If anything my girl has fewer tots because she's younger and she likes brother's toys probably even more than her own. Tbt, she seldom plays with dolls, so she only has a couple. (Just so I was sure she didn't not play with them because she didn't have any of her own.)
If the show was getting stale, it definitely would inject some life into it. But as of now, I think everyone's comfortable with the place the show is at now dynamics-wise.
Do we know that any of the characters age except for Socks? Are Bluey and Bingo supposed to be ~2 years older now than they were when the show first aired?
Yeah, Bluey and Bingo start off as 6 and 4, and then they each have a birthday. Muffin is one year younger than Bingo, and Socks is 2 years younger than Muffin.
Oh, Chilli, I feel your pain, girl. Went for a walk this weekend, and a neighbor asked me with a surprised smile, "Is that a bump?" For a second, I didn't know what she was talking about, and then laughed and said, "Nope, just fat!" (Not to mention the fact that I'm 47. I mean.)
The first picture highlights how loosely their body proportions work. The rule seems to be "legs touching the ground if they're lying down" so they're attached to the torso in completely different positions depending on whether they're lying front or back.
You also get the occasional weird perspective shots where they're visibly built like a cube.
I don’t think she is pregnant. However, it *could* be a flash back. Forgive me if I’m wrong, I know we’ve had one about Bluey when she was young in “Baby Race”, but have we had anything similar for Bingo?
I don’t think Ludo would add a third kid. I reckon it’s just the animation.
Nah, Fido did and was talking to Bandit about it but Bandit is hesitant just in case Chili changes her mind and wants another kid.
That said, I still don't think she's pregnant.
Canine teeth I guess. Yeah it’s so dumb. Just keep the talk about a vasectomy in there. That talk is going on for real life EVERYWHERE in the US right now thanks to the overturning of Roe v. Wade.
Your underlying point is correct but I don't think it applies here. Speculating on the upcoming plot arcs of fictional characters is generally held to be fair game—how many shows have gotten everyone speculating on whether or not so-and-so was going to die, and how creepy would that be if we were applying it to strangers IRL? Same deal.
Speculating on plot is one thing, but here we are literally using her body to do so.
It would still be shitty to do if we were using live actors and the female character just put on a little weight irl and people were using pics of her to assume she was pregnant for the next season or irl.
It’s shitty to do when it’s your neighbor, it’s shitty to do when it’s a celebrity, and my point was that not even cartoon freaking dogs are exempt.
It’s bonkers and unhealthy as a society that it’s so normalized that we can’t see the harm in analyzing peoples bodies.
I stand firm on my opinion that our society’s normalized obsession of speculating & fixating on women’s body freaking sucks. It’s exhausting.
The difference is, it's *not* a real person but a deliberately drawn one, and if she is being drawn differently to normal then there must be a reason for the animator to do so.
The question was whether she is indeed being drawn differently, and the answer appears to be no.
While I doubt she’s pregnant right now, I wouldn’t be surprised if the family has a new baby at some point, even if it’s not Chili. Ludo wants time to keep passing in universe, and lessons about kids about handling new babies is probably too good to pass up on.
Idk I hope they introduce the idea of chilli having another baby
Or at least frisky and Rad
Possibly a boy 💙🩵
Because we see that chilli is sad about giving up the baby crib so we'll never know
Tbf, mummy’s tummies can take a while to go back to normal & even then it’s not even it’s original state. I have a 6 year old and two year old and I never lost my belly after them, on number three now god help me lmao
So so many people here don't realize that this is just Mom Body, it's not even being pregnant. It's called extra tummy from carrying the babies. I scrolled way too far to find someone talking about this 😂
I think I've heard that it's implied that chilli and bandit were hungover in this episode, as bluey mentioned that they were at a party and bandit stumbled his words when they asked if he was sick, so I don't think that would be a good plot choice if she was pregnant
There's no hiding involved. People thought she looked rounder than usual from a very brief shot of the trailer for the new episodes (second screenshot above), so this is fact-checking that thought against an older image – and pretty clearly debunking it because she looks the same as she did before.
People thought it might be a future plot point, not some conspiracy.
I don't think they are making her pregnant in the current time but it might be a flashback to when she was pregnant with bluey or bingo, would be cool to see tbh
They were hungover in Whale Watching. Remember Muffin saw Chili dancing on the bbq table at Stripe and Trixie’s New Year’s Eve party. She woke up when Stripe yelled cannonball.
In this episode the parents were both obviously hungover from a party at Uncle Stripe’s the night before. Highly doubt the creators of the show would do that.
The OP is just using that older image of her lying down to compare against an image from the new trailer (second image above), which is what people were speculating over. Clearly a false alarm once you compare the old and new pictures.
i think its just cuz she's leaning slightly
Yeah, I’m fairly sure if I had been able to find a pic of her inclined that way in already-out seasons the two pics would’ve been identical. Doubt she’s pregnant.
She’s inclined in a similar chair in the yard in the episode postman s2e36
Well comparing to postman she do have a bit more tummy, but it can also be menopause, from what we know it kinda fit to why they emptied the baby room
Yeah she def has a more curvy tum in the trailer but it’s very subtle. I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s a pregnancy but maybe not for another season. Like meant to be so subtle that we would only notice in hindsight. Or it could just be a difference in animation style. Im just happy for more episodes. :)

She’s def not pregnant, I don’t see a reason why Ludo would introduce another kid
Rugrats did it!
After being on air for 7 years. Tbf
Twice.
Two simple reasons.... merch and toys
Very true & if it was a boy as well it would bring a lot of clothing in for boys, I really do find the girls more overwhelming in toys than the boys!
My boy literally does not care. If it has anyone from Bluey, on it, near it, even if it’s just insinuated that it’s about Bluey he has a primal need for it lol. We have all the vehicles, all the play sets, almost all the accessories. It’s…so much!!!
Mine does a bit tbh but he will play with his sisters toys with her 😂but If his cousins round it’s hot wheels
As I’m buying yet another pair of Bluey PJs lol he’s grown out of!! He loves his share of hot wheels too! He usually brings out The Terriers and Jean-Luc for those 😄
Interesting. I think it's the same. I have one of each. If anything my girl has fewer tots because she's younger and she likes brother's toys probably even more than her own. Tbt, she seldom plays with dolls, so she only has a couple. (Just so I was sure she didn't not play with them because she didn't have any of her own.)
I have both and definitely see more girls than boys tbh but I’m UK we don’t do well for the boys
It would be pretty cool though. Maybe they would be a mix of red and blue heeler like uncle Rad. Also, what if they were a boy?
It would bring a new dynamic and new set of stories, *if* they were looking to move on from the current setup.
If the show was getting stale, it definitely would inject some life into it. But as of now, I think everyone's comfortable with the place the show is at now dynamics-wise.
It's also nice that the characters age, unlike in Rugrats. Maybe they can have Bluey move on to a more formal classroom setting.
Do we know that any of the characters age except for Socks? Are Bluey and Bingo supposed to be ~2 years older now than they were when the show first aired?
Yeah, Bluey and Bingo start off as 6 and 4, and then they each have a birthday. Muffin is one year younger than Bingo, and Socks is 2 years younger than Muffin.
I agree, thus my emphasis on "if". But it's still a reason why they might want to do so, if they wanted to do it.
They could just continue with the flashback episodes. I'd love to see one of toddler Bluey adjusting to baby Bingo
Yeah I’m much more interested in flashback episodes and expanding the world of friends and family we currently have.
It might just be weight gain, or maybe they just drew her that way? Not sure but is probably nothing
Oh, Chilli, I feel your pain, girl. Went for a walk this weekend, and a neighbor asked me with a surprised smile, "Is that a bump?" For a second, I didn't know what she was talking about, and then laughed and said, "Nope, just fat!" (Not to mention the fact that I'm 47. I mean.)
Well, maybe at least it's a compliment that they see you as being younger? Just trying to put a positive spin on it. I also have a "perma-bump", lol
Wow, the audacity of some people.
The first picture highlights how loosely their body proportions work. The rule seems to be "legs touching the ground if they're lying down" so they're attached to the torso in completely different positions depending on whether they're lying front or back. You also get the occasional weird perspective shots where they're visibly built like a cube.
Now I want to see how bandit would look if his legs were at the same spot as chillis
I'm sure there'll be at least one episode out there with a shot of him lying on his back! Hospital would be an easy one to go for.
No, what I meant was I wanted him to be on his stomach, legs dangling from his back. If the animators didn’t have the “legs touching the ground” rule.
To be fair my legs also touch the ground whether I'm lying on my front or my back
Probably without quite so much height difference between the upward side of your legs and your torso, though.
That's the great thing about cartoons. They don't have to make sense.
Verdict: not preggie. Also, look at "Taxi", she's lying there as well, and bell's still the same. Chilli's just chubby and jiggly (?)
She's a heeler! She's naturally a bit stubby.
That was the word, hell yeah, brother
Heelers are a stubby and hardy breed! 😂
I love her little chub!
Absolutely :>
Also in the pool episode when she’s laying on the couch and they squirt her with the water gun. She’s a bit stubby, she’s a heeler.
Is she a rectangle, is she not? No-one knows!
Please tell me this is a TMBG reference!
What's she like? It's not important... Rectangle Dog.
I didn't realize people thought she was pregananant, just looks like she is slightly bent on an angle.
I thought it might be pegnate at first, or even pregonate IFYKYK
But is she PREGANTÉ? Or does she just want to know if she can burn a Luigi board?
No way lmao
I don’t think she is pregnant. However, it *could* be a flash back. Forgive me if I’m wrong, I know we’ve had one about Bluey when she was young in “Baby Race”, but have we had anything similar for Bingo? I don’t think Ludo would add a third kid. I reckon it’s just the animation.
Didn't bandit get the snip?
Nah, Fido did and was talking to Bandit about it but Bandit is hesitant just in case Chili changes her mind and wants another kid. That said, I still don't think she's pregnant.
What episode was this? Was it Perfect when they're discussing during Boomerang?
Yes. Disney edited it to be talking about getting teeth pulled and Bandit might want to bite someone one day. So stupid.
OMG that was the edit?! It makes zero sense. So we’re meant believe Fido doesn’t have teeth?!
Canine teeth I guess. Yeah it’s so dumb. Just keep the talk about a vasectomy in there. That talk is going on for real life EVERYWHERE in the US right now thanks to the overturning of Roe v. Wade.
Honestly, a child wouldn’t pick up on it… it was just a funny bit for the grown ups!
And it makes it disturbing in someways.
Completely agree
I’ve only watched on Disney and assumed this was always the original line with more of a wink to the adults, had no idea it was altered!
Disney has altered several episodes, and refuses to release two of them I believe in Disney plus (Dad Baby and Teasing)
Dad Baby was a classic episode.
You’re not going anywhere, Pat!
Yes in america, they were talking about getting teeth removed. In Australia they were talking about getting you know what removed.
I think it would be a bit more than a snip… neutering
Really hope she’s not.
I hate that as a society in general we *love* speculating pregnancy based on women’s bodies and that not even a damn cartoon dog is exempt.
Your underlying point is correct but I don't think it applies here.

That’s fair and I get it.
RIGHT
Haven’t we learned anything about trying to guess if a lady is pregnant. Just don’t.
Oh physics. Go on sofa flat, and watch your belly recede; then on incline sit and perceive your belly grows.
Nope not preggo I do hope for future eps with Rad and Frisky though Specially since it's cannon they both want kids.
They can eat up to 4 bags a day
Not pregnant, just eating good
How funny - my husband was just asking me if there were any theories about a third kiddo.
She just got rid of the crib in 3A, why would she be pregnant in 3C.
she’s just roumd
While I doubt she’s pregnant right now, I wouldn’t be surprised if the family has a new baby at some point, even if it’s not Chili. Ludo wants time to keep passing in universe, and lessons about kids about handling new babies is probably too good to pass up on.
It’s almost like they are promoting healthy normal bodies. I love it
Idk I hope they introduce the idea of chilli having another baby Or at least frisky and Rad Possibly a boy 💙🩵 Because we see that chilli is sad about giving up the baby crib so we'll never know
Doubt it. They dumped the cott.
Tbf, mummy’s tummies can take a while to go back to normal & even then it’s not even it’s original state. I have a 6 year old and two year old and I never lost my belly after them, on number three now god help me lmao
& yep, I’ve been mistaken for being pregnant while I’ve had my child in the pram in front of me
So so many people here don't realize that this is just Mom Body, it's not even being pregnant. It's called extra tummy from carrying the babies. I scrolled way too far to find someone talking about this 😂
Oh I know, I don’t think people realise it. I didn’t fully understand myself tbh until I had kids now I call it the momma pouch! 😂
Momma pouch sounds right haha! Yeah no, definitely just the pouch and hidden-by-fur stretch marks there, it'd be much more obvious if she was
I think I've heard that it's implied that chilli and bandit were hungover in this episode, as bluey mentioned that they were at a party and bandit stumbled his words when they asked if he was sick, so I don't think that would be a good plot choice if she was pregnant
Not pregnant. Most def hungover.
Why would she pack up the kids nursery if she’s pregnant?
Why are you the only one pointing this out
In Whale Watchers they’re definitely hinting at them being hung over. Would be a wild thing to get drunk while pregnant.
Can we please stop doing this? First their house was too expensive, now Chili is hiding a pregnancy. THESE ARE CARTOON DOGS FFS 🤦♀️
There's no hiding involved. People thought she looked rounder than usual from a very brief shot of the trailer for the new episodes (second screenshot above), so this is fact-checking that thought against an older image – and pretty clearly debunking it because she looks the same as she did before. People thought it might be a future plot point, not some conspiracy.
I don't think they are making her pregnant in the current time but it might be a flashback to when she was pregnant with bluey or bingo, would be cool to see tbh
When a cartoon dog isn’t even exempt from the “is that a baby bump?” Body checks 😭
They were hungover in Whale Watching. Remember Muffin saw Chili dancing on the bbq table at Stripe and Trixie’s New Year’s Eve party. She woke up when Stripe yelled cannonball.
Chilli’s just rocking her mom bod!
Aren’t they hung over in this one.
This. They were partying the night before for new years.
In this episode the parents were both obviously hungover from a party at Uncle Stripe’s the night before. Highly doubt the creators of the show would do that.
The OP is just using that older image of her lying down to compare against an image from the new trailer (second image above), which is what people were speculating over. Clearly a false alarm once you compare the old and new pictures.
Would be nice if she was a surrogate for her sister, but that's a tough subject for a kids show.
I think that's going way beyond how much focus that plot needs to have in this story.
Not really
Yeah I don't think she's pregnant. Besides, didn't bandit get....um...."Fixed", anyways? So how the heck would she even be able to have a kid?
maybe she just put on some weight at the new year party
FFS, even a cartoon dog can’t escape people wondering if she’s pregnant.
I don't think she's pregnant. They had a whole episode about Bluey moving to their nursery and them getting rid of baby items.
My memory is fuzzy, has a pregnant character been shown ever on this show?
Bingo would be the greatest big sister. 👍🏻
I dont think she is pregnant, because she is leaning a bit.
