To those that have been pregnant. When you were did strangers really walk up to you, touch your belly and ask you question? Was it often?

All the time but I didn't mind because they were women...no man ever asked to touch my belly. And they asked lots of questions...didn't mind that either. Now I find myself doing the same thing with pregnant women.

Yes! You think we're kidding, but I couldn't go to the grocery store without at LEAST one person doing it (usually in the checkout line). Usually it was other women, and usually it was just that they were excited. They always wanted to know when I was due, and if it was a boy or a girl. Once in a while people not related to me would ask if they could feel the baby kick, but at least they asked first. I don't know, maybe I look friendly or something, but I'm not THAT friendly!

During my last pregnancy I worked in a out-patient lab. I had lots touching me daily. But my favorite is, "Are you pregnant?" No it's a big ole beer belly. On Halloween of last year I decided to get creative and play with it a little. My hubby painted a pumpkin on my belly. Whenever someone asked me the question I said no I'm pumpkin smuggling and flashed them my belly. It was fun.
