13 — History
Where the 🫃 Pregnant Man emoji came from
It arrived with the 14.0 release of the standard, which dates the pregnant man to 2021.
Same character every time — U+1FAC3 never changed. Only the drawing did, and only because each vendor redraws its own set. Someone on an older phone still sees the older picture.
Pregnant Man was approved as U+1FAC3 and shipped in Emoji 14.0 (2021). Phones usually get new artwork about a year after approval, in a system update.
Every vendor keeps its own artwork, so 🫃 is redrawn by Apple, Google, Twitter / X, Facebook, OpenMoji, Samsung, Microsoft, WhatsApp, JoyPixels. The character you send never changes — only the picture does.
