Just wondering...

Why do people think it's okay to touch a pregnant woman's stomach? So tacky and invasive - NOT endearing at all. I feel repulsed the second I see someone eyeing my bump and moving their hand towards it😷

i’ve always been the type of person who thought it was rude to just go up and start touching a pregnant woman’s belly. BUT since I’m pregnant now EVERYONE I see comes up to me and does it. ITS SO AWKWARD AND I HATE IT. but i’m not the one to speak up I just cry inside a little lol 😭😂

It just feels weird to me when someone other than my husband rubs my belly. I don’t like it. It feels invasive.

Ha I hate it too! It’s so weird. I don’t care if you are a person I know. 🙅🏼‍♀️ just stop. only okay with my husband and my daughter rubbing my belly.

I had a coworker touch mine recently and then tell me in her culture it is lucky for a woman to touch a pregnant woman's bump if she is trying to conceive. I felt bad, cause she basically told me she is struggling to get pregnant, but I straight up told her not to touch it if she didn't put it there. I wouldn't want people randomly touching my baby after birth, I don't want them groping me before he's born either.

I don’t mind if it’s immediate family like my mom (my sister even sits with her hand on it waiting to feel her move! 😂) but my husbands grandma did it and it was a little bit weird. She also was constantly asking me when we were gonna have kids so she just doesn’t really have much boundaries. If someone I didn’t know tried to I’d flip out like I would if I weren’t pregnant

Yeah my fathers girlfriend did that to me the other day. It annoyed me a lot. A few people I don’t mind if hey do. And if they ask it’s one thing it to just go ahead and touch me no. I don’t like being touched in the first place.
