Everybody Wants to Touch the Twins Belly
As a pregnant woman carrying twins, you may have noticed that your growing twin pregnancy belly seems to attract unwanted attention from others. Everyone seems to want to touch your belly, even if you’ve never met them before. In this article, we’ll discuss how to deal with unwanted attention during pregnancy, especially when it comes to the twins belly.
Dealing with Unwanted Attention
While some pregnant women may not mind the attention and enjoy showing off their baby bump, others may feel uncomfortable with strangers touching their belly. It’s important to remember that your body, dressed or not, is your private space, and anyone who wants to touch it should ask for your permission first.
Talk to Your Partner
It’s also important to consider how your partner feels about others touching your belly, especially if it’s a male. Some men may not mind women touching their partner’s belly but may feel uncomfortable with other men doing so. Talk to your partner and come up with a plan that makes you both feel comfortable.
Kids and the Twin Pregnancy Belly
Kids may also want to touch your belly, especially if they know someone who has had twins before. If you don’t mind, it’s okay to let them touch your belly, but be cautious as kids tend to get excited and may accidentally hurt you by punching your belly.
Beware of Tummy Poking
While some people may gently touch your twin pregnancy belly, others may poke or prod at it, which can be painful. It’s important to explain to them kindly that it hurts and ask them not to do it again.
When All Else Fails
If you’ve already been gracious in letting people know that you don’t want them touching your belly and they continue to do so, it’s okay to stand up for yourself. You can sick your partner on them or even give them a gentle swat if necessary.
Dealing with unwanted attention during pregnancy, especially when it comes to the twins belly, can be challenging.
