  1. No of course not, why would you think that?


  2. Sure!! My cut off is puberty though :-)

  3. No, When i was pregnant my little brother and sister loved feeling my tummy. I dont see a problem with it what so ever! Although, I do think its odd when random adults touch the bump. But random kids are just learning how the world works, why deny them of that?

  4. no its not, its nice and polite.... plus, they are really curious how a baby can be in there....

  5. I wouldn't say it's wrong...maybe a little annoying for some people. When I was pregnant, my niece was 2 and her mom taught her how to give my belly kisses...which was cute the first 50 times. After that, it got a little annoying.  

  6. I don't see why it would be?  

    I mean when i was a little girl and my mom had a friend over who was pregnant, i asked to touch her belly.

    She didn't seem to mind!  I mean thats the first time i ever remember seeing a pregnant belly close up.

    If a kid asked me i would be fine with it!

  7. Why would that be wrong?   Kids are curious and they are only touching....not punching.

  8. Not at all, I would be thankful the child asked...complete strangers don't even ask before they walk up and rub a pregnant belly.

  9. i don't think it's wrong or rude. it's always preferred if someone asks to touch a belly first but i wouldn't be offended if a child touched my belly. a friend's kid (who is three) always wants to "feel the baby" and i think it's sweet. she doesn't ask because she's 3 and it isn't inapropriate to touch my baby belly in her 3 year old world.

  10. Most children would want to touch a pregnant womas belly because most children love babies. So not its not wrong.

  11. Absolutely not... children are very curious, and as a soon-to-be first time parent, I welcome it. Younger children are especially fun to watch when they are curious about the baby in my tummy.  

  12. no.. :D in commercials little kids are telling the babies to be safe.. i think its perfectly fine unless they are doing it in a wrong way or abusive way...

  13. To ask?  No!  Anyone can ask.  The pregnant woman can say no.

    It's when they touch without asking that bugs most women.

  14. no why would it be wrong? they are just curious im sure at times it can be a bit much but thats about it. be happy that they ask!!

  15. No not at all wrong. Children are always learning and there's no better way to learn than through touch.  

  16. As long as they're asking and not just walking up and touching.  :)

  17. Some people are really weird about anyone touching them. Asking first especially if you aren't really close to the person is just the respectable thing to do! Most people say that they don't care, some may squirt germ-x into your hand (had this happen once), and some will squeamish their way out of it.  

  18. No, atleast they are asking! I hated when grown adults would touch my belly without asking though!

  19. no i think thats actually quite normal...kids are naturally curious so touching your belly is just a way for them to experience and learn new things.

  20. No not at all, kids are inquisitive.
