We are shook. Although, we have found the explanation as to how she did this.
Tammy used a technique known to the fitness industry as 'vacuuming', whereby you take a deep breath and flex your abdominal muscles in order to show a flat tummy.

This controversial hack caused a stir on TikTok due to the involvement of a child.
“When you’re over being pregnant,” is what the 24-week pregnant mom captioned the video.
With nearly a million likes and millions of views, if this hasn't popped up on your explore page then you're defs on a different side of TikTok.
We have absolutely no idea what gave Tammy the urge to do this trend, however, many important questions have been raised in the comments.
“The baby, is it ok?” asked one viewer.
Another asked: “Legit question… wouldn’t that be bad for the baby? Like suddenly out of nowhere just tightening up everything… have studies been done on the shock?”
