tOrla   10 #1 Posted February 23, 2013 I'm currently 24 weeks pregnant and I'm huge! People whether it be family, friends and even strangers want to touch it. I don't know if its just me but I get embarassed by it. This is my 3rd baby. My 1st is 10 my second is 6 and this baby is due in June. I've been the same with all 3. Just wondered what other mums and mums to be thought?  Any feedback appreciated :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

I was so taken aback I said she could, and yes it was odd  Anyway - she got pregnant almost immediately after Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

kirstyp86 Â Â 10 #7 Posted February 25, 2013 I think its rude! I would never go up to someone and touch them so why do they think they can do it to me!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
tOrla   10 #8 Posted February 26, 2013 I'm so pleased that I'm not the only one who feels this way. I was hoping it was nothing more to it than being over protective.  Thankyou for all your responses  ---------- Post added 09-03-2013 at 07:03 ----------  Well I just thought I'd pop on here and say Hi really and post a quick update. I had my baby on Thursday at 01.22 a little girl weighing 1lb 13oz she's doing really well ATM. It's me that's not great. Although I was really protective of my bump I'd still rather her 'be cooking' inside than be in Sbcu... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
