Almost everybody will have the feeling to touch the belly of the mother to have the sense of the inside baby, but not all will not feel easy to approach the mother to ask for the touch. However, if any mother is ready to show her belly and if the people are asked to have a touch on the mothers belly, then almost all will come forward to feel it, they will never mind whether she is a known person or not. That is it will happen even in the civic places, as if it is the private mother's room. If one of the pregnant ladies is ready to show her belly, definitely there will be someone to feel it.
You may go round your husband and ask him about this, he may pretend as if he tolerate it, but inside he will be feeling like giving a punch to the man who want to feel the belly of his wife. Have a talk with him to find about his feelings, though you feel ok, his feeling will be completely unlike, how a man will feel when some other man feels his beloved ones belly. If it is a case in which another lady is feeling his wife's belly then he will not mind it doing so. For instance, you may have a guess that another woman is having her hands exactly up in the chest of your husband, definitely you will feel the same feeling of your husband. If you get into the problem, allowing some other person to touch your belly, better have a talk and resolve the problem.
You must remember that whether your stomach is exposed to the outside or not, it is yours - most private part and that is the reason why people are asking for the permission before trying to feel your stomach and they are giving respect for your answer. You could say not if you feel uneasy, but there are a few ladies who will not mind this considerably, but many will not like this. Many are there who are much conscious about their enormous weight at the time of pregnancy, and they do not want others to look at them, actually they themselves will feel delicate to look at their belly.
Children are always curious to touch the belly of the pregnant mothers. Some allow the children to feel their belly and some feel discomfort able and do not allow others to do it. In such case, it is better for them to say about it to the children at the same movement, and if you prefer to allow them then be careful and keep their hands touched on the top, as they will slap the belly out of excitement
Some kids may try to poke your belly and it is a more worse, moreover it will be painful too, and most of them are not conscious of that. You must try to explain gently about the pain that will occur, when the belly is poked. Usually, they will try to do it to see the baby moving and on the other hand they will not realize how painful it will be, but if you make them know about it they will stop doing it and will start thinking about it the next time when they are about to do it.
If you are politely indicating, no to the people who are approaching you for a touch of your belly, and even then they are not listening to your words then give a green signal to your husband to take action on them or yourself could hit them, if they continuously try to reach your stomach. You do not have to feel sorry for them as you had just warned them.
