Are any of you pregnant ladies paranoid about people touching your stomach during your pregnancy?

Question

I am that way , and I also don't like telling people how far I am when they ask. Is anyone else like that at all?

Answer 1

I havent had the problem yett..

I am only 5 months and only gained my recommended 8lbs so Im not showing, but I did mention to a prestess that I was pregnant and before she blessed my baby she asked permission to touch my belly...

I think if and when it does happen I will rub the offending persons belly and see how they respond

Answer 2

Im 9 mo pregnant and I am not paranoid about it. If its people I like and trust like my friends its fine. It actually cracks me up most of the time. I havent had anyone rub my belly that I didn't like so its been cool. But if someone were to push hard or shake my belly I think Id go hysterical on them. Luckily that has not happened. One of my friends even kissed my belly over my shirt. It made me laugh. I also dont mind telling ppl how far along I am. I get amused when they ask me and I think its kinda sweet that they are curious.

Answer 3

I wasn't paranoid about people touching my stomach but it was irritating since it was very uncomfortable.. especially the last three months. I just flat out asked people not to touch me as it was uncomfortable. Most understood.

As for answering how far along I was, I would just smile and say, "Not far enough!" and then changed the subject. Those who needed to know, knew.

Good luck and congratulations!

Answer 4

Im not pregnatn rightnow but when I was I hated strangers touching my belly & that only happened one or two tiems cause I would slap at their hands (like you swat some kids hand. lol) or back away form them. If it was someone I knew then I usually didn't mind. I never did have a problem telling people how far along I was, it did get annoying after the 500th time though.

Answer 5

I don't like people touching me as a rule so, yes it bothers me if people want to touch my pregnant belly. I also just give my due month. I think asking how far along someone is is just one of those automatic responses. Kind of like How are you, fine how are you. You really probably don't want to know any further than "fine" but you are programed to ask anyway.

Answer 6

I fell on my abdomen difficult from slipping in dirt whilst i became 28 weeks, and in the present day at virtually 37 weeks I fell down the stairs on my knees it injury like hell, yet toddler is shifting ok. i'm clearly an ungainly guy or woman so am bowled over I easily have in elementary terms fallen two times. My husband guides me by using the arm whilst it particularly is muddy/snowy or icy as he's so paranoid i will fall. i think of as long as your spouse takes it secure at her own %. and you handbook her or carry her arm at somewhat difficult bits she can be advantageous. i think of it somewhat is basically organic for family members's to stress my mum lives 2 hundred miles away and that i've got stopped telling her a million/2 the flaws I do, e.g taking the canine for long hikes and doing residing house initiatives as she seems to think of i'm a china doll and tells me to be careful perpetually lol. sturdy luck with the being pregnant

Answer 7

I am definitely. I let a very select few touch my belly and i never tell them what day I am due just the month. I don't think its any of their business and I honestly feel they are asking for conversation not because they care.

Answer 8

I didn't like people touching me when I was pregnant.
Most people who know me knew that. If someone would
reach out I usually back up. Rude but so is touching people
you don't know.

Answer 9

I dont like people touching my stomach, but I dont really mind them asking the due date.

Answer 10

I love people asking how far I am and being interested in my pregnancy, but I don't like them telling me "oh your so BIG" or rubbing my belly like I'm Budah or something.
