Yeah yeah, I know that kangaroos never get big and round during pregnancy because of very short gestation period - it longs only 30 days, then neonate continue to grow in the pouch. But this kangaroo female was impregnate in the lab as part of scientific experiment. The scientists wanted to get full-development kangaroo offsprings bypass the pouch for some purpose (don't ask me why) so they did embedded DNA-altered ovicell in her womb and the project has started. Of course kangaroo can't give birth to fully growth baby because her birth canal is very narrow but the scientists has planned c-section her when the fetus will be viable - after about 200 days (6 months) of antenatal life. But pregnant kangaroo had escaped from the lab to the wild woods. She became free from the scientists... but not from the new life which continue to grow inside her. 200 days has passed, 100 days else - and now her belly has reached its limit. The kangaroo can't barely move and she don't understand what swells her and kicks her inside. She needs in urgent c-section right now - otherwise she'll pop for sure before sunset! Maybe the scientists already in searching for her?.. I hope so!

Oh my, she's really overdue! Too pity that her belly gonna burst inevitably - there is no any surgeons in the woods
But while she still big and round - one humble otter guy wants to put his wet paws on her tight swollen sides and midbelly! Maybe even shove them in her pouch!
Can he do it?

Mhm, poor girl, she is clearly -very- swollen with that big growing way overdue roo baby inside her huge round tummy, its so big its foot bulge is half the size of hers! I'm not worried she will pop tho, those scientists are surely looking for her and a big round roo girl like her isent hard to spot, she wouldent have gotten far being so big either~ ^^ <3
It would be super interesting if roos did have normal mammal pregnancies for sure, but, being marsupials and adapted to harsh environments, the baby growing to full size in the pouch makes sense in alot of ways to keep it and the mum safe~

With what I know, the enhancements she would need would include something to keep the placenta in place (I looked it up, and marsupials do have them, but with obvious minor differences), something that would only release with surgery, as when a standard female mammal becomes overdue, the placenta can start to disconnect and result in unfortunate oxygen deprivation or death in the unborn; something would have to allow the kangaroo's complex uterus structure to expand almost indefinitely; and she would have to be eating a massive amount of food to sustain an unborn that large.
In one story I am working on, a weasel scientist discovered one mammal that generates a "universal hormone enhancer" that increases a female's capacity to both conceive and carry after mating. If used in too high of a dose, the female will bear a much greater number in her litter than her species is ever supposed to produce at a time, and will be a while overdue-- the hormone only aides in pregnancy, not so much in birth.

I should specify that the hormone does have to be extracted from that one species and then applied using direct injection into the blood, preferably the arm. If the hormone is injected directly into the uterus, it can overload her system by starting too fast. Anyways, this concept is my explanation for how this kangaroo can go so long without complications other than limited expansion space.
By the way, as far as overdue pregnancies go, this is the best piece I have ever managed to locate. She actually looks so full, and there's nothing in the sketch that distracts from that belly. A few days of analysis revealed a lot of tidbits on how to make a great massive belly that looks cute rather than ridiculous as so many other artists have done. There's a good full nine month pregnancy, and then there's this. Great job to Black Kitty, and to this kangaroo mother to be! Boy or girl?
