'I don’t understand the obsession with people touching pregnant bellies but it bothers me when people try to do it.'
Posting in AITA — a forum where users try to figure out if they were wrong or not during some sort of confrontational moment — the woman explained her situation.the 24-year-old woman wrote that she's currently six months pregnant as a surrogate for a family.
“...the family I’m surrogating for has asked multiple times if they can touch my stomach or rub it and feel the baby move and kick,” she wrote. “The wife stating that she’s always wanted to experience feeling the kicking and moving baby.”“Now for context she can fully have children of her own this surrogacy is a choice they made so as not to interfere with her career by being pregnant. She has a physically demanding job and doesn’t want to risk anything happening to the baby or her career.
Since their confrontation, the woman has been receiving calls from the wife and the husband, calling her an "a-hole" for defending herself against the mom. The response in the AITA thread was overwhelmingly on the surrogate’s side. After being upvoted over 6,000 times with over 1k comments, Reddit users backed up the surrogate for protecting her boundaries with the couple. “It is HER body. Not the soon-to-be mom’s body. And maybe the statement about her being pregnant herself is harsh but it is only harsh because it is true,”It’s your body, your rules. Touching you is not bonding with the baby, or for the baby.
