Belly Rubbing…

For those of you who have been pregnant, I have one question.  Do you like it when someone starts rubbing your belly?  Here is my view of when you can…

1.  If you are a close friend

2.  If you ask me

3.  If I tell you to feel the baby move

4.  If you are family

This is why I ask…The other day I had a vendor come to the office.  I was on the phone in my office trying to take care of a problem.  The female vendor came on in and started rubbing my stomach in a circular motion!  I was thinking. “WHAT are you doing?”  I was so overcome with the fact that she had interrupted me and just assumed I was okay with it.  I am dumbfounded that she would do that.  I see this lady about 4 times a year.  So when I hung up I went to the front office to finish taking care of this and she continues to tell me in front of all the other staff how much healhier I look.  I don’t need someone telling me that I look healthier and fuller.  YES I AM PREGNANT and YES I HAVE GAINED WEIGHT!  Normal!  Yes, you can say that I look great or cruddy…I don’t care.  But please don’t go into detail! 

Again, just my take on belly rubbing!

    That’s east Tennessee for you. I remember perfect strangers doing that to my wife in stores; wait until the baby comes and people you don’t know at all try to snatch him/her right out of your hands.
