Neither of those don't look particularly pregnant. If there is a male in there they are pregnant.

If there is a male, pretty much guarantee they are or will be.
Mollies can store the sperm/fertilized eggs for many months. I have no males and the one i purchased from LFS apparently got knocked up and when I got her home, she has had babies one month, 2 months, and 5 months later. They develop a more squared/angled belly, not curved fat/healthy eating belly. Then they shoot them little ones out. Got to witness that event

I don't understand the quoting thing.
My post was not clear, I don't know why I double negatived like that.
Neither of those look pregnant. They are pregnant if there was a male in the tank or even around them when they were capable of getting pregnant.
