It's hard to get a sense of scale, but I look at the first one and see a toy. Barbie once had a
pregnant friend, but it got enough complaints (even though the character was "married," husband sold separately) that it was pulled from shelves.

"Most girls want to be like Barbie" or her friends, said Kenya Williams, 29, buying a life-sized baby doll and another gift for daughters Alexis, 9, and Kiera, 7. "Maybe if they would have put them all together as a family, it might be a little different, but alone it sends out the wrong message."
