Can I touch your belly?

How do you feel about people asking to touch your belly? Today I'm exactly 15 weeks and I'm not really showing. So when I recently started telling people I'm pregnant, I was shocked that everyone wants to touch my belly. I personally don't really like it because I feel as though they're just touching my belly fat instead of baby, lol, and it makes me feel uncomfortable. Has anyone asked to touch your belly?

Im 15 weeks and showing  bit not a lot but enough... i dnt mind my family touching my belly but it really bothers me when my husbands family ask for some reason... and strangers im just kinda like um no .

I'm excited to show my growing baby!!! But it's understandable... I think with men I'd be a little sketch about.

I'm a bigger girl so I'm not showing and won't be for a while but some people that know want to touch my belly anyways. I don't mind it much but after a little bit touching needs to stop. Only my baby's father and the horses i work with can touch as much ad they want.

For me, as long as it's family or friends, I don't care if they ask. They can hang all over my belly if they want...my hubby is even starting to. A couple of my coworkers have even rubbed the baby belly lol. But random strangers...um no, creepy much?

I've heard for years how much women hate it but I actually don't mind! I'm a teacher so I get it from my students too which I love. They say goodbye to me and the baby at the end of the day.

I dont like it now but it might be bc im not really showing much. One of my friends lifted up my shirt without asking. I was not happy about that.

Ugh, absolutely hate it. My baby daddy's grandma does it and doesn't even touch the right spot!! She touches where my stomach would be and I have to restrain myself from saying, "uhh there's no baby in there, try a little lower." I feel like when I'm actually showing I won't mind as much, but right now there's not much to touch!

I don't think it's that big of a deal, then again I am an open person pre-pregnancy!

I don't mind if they ask but what really grind my gears is when people just touch and doesn't ask. Escpically when its some random person.

I generally tell people if you didn't put the baby there you don't get to touch it. Same thing with the delivery room. My husband and I were the only ones in the room when this baby was made we will be the only ones there when we deliver.
