Are you okay with common pregnancy annoyances?

Question

pregnancy annoyances?" /> 
By common pregnancy annoyances I mean people commenting on the size of your bump, wanting to touch your belly, saying you’re ready to pop, etc.? 
I see a lot of woman who are annoyed by these things and I oddly enjoy them? It almost makes me have a sense of pride. And I love getting to talk about my growing baby and share the experience with others.   
Just curious if I’m just a weirdo or there are others like me 😂

Answer

i don’t really like strangers talking to me in general and definitely don’t want them to touch me. but my mil and mom can rub my belly all they want and it doesn’t bother me one bit. i think it’s cute. it also doesn’t bother me when they call my baby “their” baby. i’m just happy my kiddos have such loving grandparents.

Answer

I’m ok with people touching my belly. I haven’t had one person say anything negative about my pregnancy or belly. If anything it’s the complete opposite. Yesterday I ran into my neighbor and she said I had the cutest belly. I’m ok with any compliments while I’m pregnant and growing! Lol

Answer

I don’t care if ppl say stuff about my belly or whatever. But don’t touch me without asking lol, that’s weird and annoying to me.

Answer

I don’t find them annoying at all. Although I’ve never had a stranger try and touch my belly, only friends/family. I think I would be weirded out by a stranger. But one of the cardiologist at our hospital commented on how small I was for how far along I am and I took it as a complement! I know some people get butt hurt over that because they want to be big. I was so happy! Lol. When my coworker told me I finally popped I was also happy because it meant I was further along and hopefully my patients would be nicer to me (a girl can dream).

Answer

I find them annoying when someone says it in a hurtful way... one of my friends makes a comment nearly day about how big I am.. I literally cannot help how big I am and sorry I’m not tiny like you! But if someone was like “you’re about to pop! When are you due?” Then I don’t get annoyed

Answer

It took us 3.5 years and every fertility treatment known to man to get here.  I gladly welcome the "annoyances."  I'd much rather deal with that than the constant negative tests and endless fertility treatments.  Bring on all the love and excitement from those around me!!

Answer

I’m ok with the comments because it doesn’t bother me but don’t touch my belly

Answer

I pushed yes but I meant no. I have a retroverted uterus so I won’t get a belly until probably late in my pregnancy. When I was pregnant with my first there were so many comments on how tiny my belly was especially compared to family members who were pregnant at the same time. Some were rude and some weren’t but it still made me uncomfortable. ￼

Answer

No, it never really bothered me. People seem to feel like they have to say something, like ohh your belly is so big or so small or whatever. I seems like they just have to make a comment that is pregnancy related. And even make comments after thr baby is born. I've never had someone just touch my belly without asking. That might be weird if they were a stranger. I did have a random lady try to touch my baby but I moved away. I feel like life is to short to worry about silly comments.

Answer

It was weird when I didn’t really have a bump and it was more bloat and people would touch my stomach. (Mainly my parents and other close friends and relatives who knew) it was like they were just touching my stomach fat lol. Now that I’ve “popped” and it’s definitely a bump I don’t mind it as much. I also don’t mind people asking me questions or making comments (with in reason. Didn’t appreciate the woman telling me I was reckless for eating a hot dog) I am proud of my lil bean and feel blessed that I’m able to share it with people.
