Re: do you hate it when people touch your belly??

I hated it in the beginning when I was all bloat and not really baby.

Now, it depends on who it is and if they ask. If you are very, very close to me, fine go ahead and touch it.

If not, hands off.

If you are nice and ask first, maybe. it depends on what kind of mood I'm in.

I remember at 16wks my FIL was parading me around at a family function like a show dog and touching my belly every time he mentioned that I was carrying his grandson.

I couldn't stand it.

Re: do you hate it when people touch your belly??

I don't mind if it is my husband or a good friend. But when people that I don't feel comfortable around start touching me, it really creeps me out. My 20 year old nephew came up to hug me and he snuck his hand down and felt my belly while he was hugging me. It creeped me out and I wanted to punch him back into a wall. Chat Icon Chat Icon

I do not mind too much, although I am shocked at the random people who will touch it out of nowhere. I personally would never touch somebody else's belly!

Re: do you hate it when people touch your belly??

OMG I hated it at first. I kept telling people they were feeling flab not the baby.

I remember at Christmas when I was around 11 weeks so many people gave a rub I felt like Buddha.

Now I am 20 weeks and just don't care. I'm more confident about my baby bump which is why I'm ok with people touching. But only family is really allowed to "touch". I wouldn't let a stranger come up and rub.

It depends on who it is. Family and close friends are fine. Others I am not so keen on.

Re: do you hate it when people touch your belly??

Well i will say that when i was only 7 weeks along, my SIL came at me trying to feel my stomach. She almost got her hand slapped! Chat Icon Chat Icon There was nothing to feel at that point!!!

But when i start showing, i don't think i'll mind at all. Chat Icon

I don't mind it, but not that many people touch it, so not really an issue.

Re: do you hate it when people touch your belly??

I hated it in the beginning when people were just rubbing my fat. Now at almost 39 weeks, I like it (as long as it's not a stranger or co-worker). It makes me happy that they get to feel my baby!

It makes me laugh though when people do the almost touch. I'm like, just touch it already!Chat Icon
