Does it bother you when people you don't know come up to you and ask you questions about your pregnancy?How about if they want to touch your belly?

It doesn't really bother me unless they start criticizing me. People tend to be nosy and then when they realize how young you are they get this look like "you ruined your life." But I just keep smiling like nothing is wrong.

I HATED it when random strangers touched my belly & asked questions.. but people I knew I was okay with it.

I didn't vote b/c I'm on the fence honestly. Most days I'm fine with answering a few questions, touching my belly is absolutely a NO unless I know you. Even then people know how I am about my personal space so they ask first. But if I'm not feeling well or having a bad day I usually hate questions. The other day as a matterof fact we went to pay the water bill, and Justin was inside and the AC on the truck has decided it doesn't wanna work anymore. So i'm outside in the hot ass truck about to melt it's like 90 degrees. Well someone had stopped him inside to chat etc so I went inside b/c I know it's air conditoned in there, and the guy goes this must be your daughter? WTF I'm not that young looking but anyway so he goes well no but hopefully carrying my daughter trying to play it off. And I was making a beeline for the door, and everyone wanted to stop and ask me questions so I just kind of hollered over my shoulder on the way out, 19 weeks september 29th not yet in four days!! That answered them all haha. Everyone was like wtf? LOL. THAT was an example of a bad time to approach me haha.

No stranger touced my belly, that, I wouldn't allow!

I personally hate it with a passion,even more so now that when they ask me when I'm due,my reply is "Two days ago." and they get this weird look like I should be on bedrest or something.I had a woman ask me"Oh,are you dilated?" as a follow up question to "When ae you due?" I was mortified!A friend of mine keeps trying to feel my belly,and at first ?I didn't say anything,because she's been TTC unsucessfully for 3 years,and I felt like,I dunno...selfish saying no,but at the same time who does that?

Anyway,I obviously voted that nosy people should be shot on sight,lol!

I want one of those shirts that says :

Due in August
Its a Boy
No you cannot touch my stomach

I think it would help... lol

Seriously,could you ever see yourself going up to a potentially dangerously hormonal pregnant woman you didn't know,and bombarding her with questions and such?I'd never do that!Partially because in the back of my mind I'd be wondering "What if she's not pregnant?!"

I wish I would have known those existed before now,I would have bought one in every color!

EXACTLY! It bugged me.. I had someone ask me if I knew who the father was whileI was at work. She was SO lucky I was at work. And I had other people just rub my belly.. I was always in too much shock to actually like.. yell.

That happened to me a couple years ago in a bookstore. This random man came up behind me and put his hand on my shoulder and said so how much longer do you have? I was like excuse you?? He said when are you due? I said I'm not asshole! He's like you look like you are...srsly, I slapped him in the middle of the store I almost got thrown out. Yeah so I will say that you need to be certain before you do lol like seeing baby items in a cart or something...

also, a side note I'm so sorry this is OT but...I'M 20 WEEKS TODAY okay I'm sorry lol. I'm excited. Woohoo for 20wks!! I just went and read this weeks preggo calendar hehe. Anyway...

I don't love the attention but it doesn't really bother me. Until about the 9th month when you don't want anyone looking or talking to you, then I get upset  

what I hate is unwanted advice. You know...the ones who will give you advice on any and everything even though you didn't ask for, or don't need it.

"Do you know who the father is?"wins in the category of bad questions to ask a pregnant woman.
I'd be tempted to say "Yes,I'm the father.You see,I'm a hermaphrodite and accidentally impregnated myself in a freak bathroom accident."
WTF!!

lol, I think its so hilarious when people ask my that because for a slight moment you can just see the panic in their face like "OMG I cant belive I just asked that, what if she isnt, oh crap" I wont lie though I pause for a minute and look at them intentionally now to make them nervous just because I can for my own sick twisted entertainment...
