No way to know : There is no way to know for sure until the pregnancy is delivered. The tight stretching of the abdomen over the enlarging uterus causes the fibrous band between the muscles to stretch. This is determined by so many factors that it is not possible to predict for sure, or to note as the pregnancy progresses. Only way to possibly prevent (not for sure) is with core exercises.
