Inspired by @BeeHive’s comment on his thread about seeing pregnant women in public, this thread will be about sharing any experiences you’ve had with pregnant women in public. And it can be pretty much any experience, whether it was good or bad, or bad, involved a belly rub, or just someone you saw.

When I was about 6 years old in the very early 2000s, I was running around a grocery store looking for my mother who I had lost. I rounded a corner fast and bumped my head hard into a woman’s very large pregnant belly. It was a big distended torpedo belly dressed in a very tight and light floral shirt. She let out an audible “oomph” sound and bent over slightly rubbing her belly. She had 3 kids with her who I think were about my age and younger and I tried to apologize to everyone and I felt very embarrassed. Luckily my mother found me at that point, apologized to the pregnant mom, and we left.

I actually have my own that happened around last year. So this was in Hawaii, and I was at the beach area of the hotel I was staying at. Out to the far left, I see a big pregnant woman in a red bikini with her young son. I didn’t want to just go up to her since I felt it’d be a bit weird, so I admired her from afar. After a while, she starts to get ready to leave, and since I didn’t bring too much with me, I left as well. She was going the same way as me, so I was able to catch up. Eventually I got her attention and asked how far along she was, and she said she was 38 weeks. I then asked other questions like if she knew the gender, if she thought of any name and so forth. I then ask if I can feel the belly, and she says yes. So I rub one hand around her belly and even poked her belly button a couple of times. After that I told her congratulations and we went our own ways. It stood out mainly because it was my first bare belly rub not from a family member. 

Once while shopping I met a pregnant girl. She was wearing jeans and a small tight t-shirt that reached almost to her navel due to the large size of her belly. Seeing how she showed that big piece of skin caught my attention. After running into her on several occasions, I decided to tell her. She told me that she was in week 36 and she was running out of time. To my surprise she told me if she wanted to touch her belly, to which I immediately agreed. It felt so good to touch that huge belly, it was so big and hard. It was incredible.

I got one so far, this was about 3 years ago I was at a target getting some small things and I ended up in the first aid section and as I was picking out some band aids a very young and attentive looking chick comes into the aisle rocking a huge bump, it was just us and I stupidly asked her “ excuse me are you a nurse? I was wondering if these were good for larger cuts” and she looked at me in the eyes and giggled and said “I’m not but I should be since I’ve had 3 kids and one more on the way” as she pats her big and round belly (She was wearing a light jacket so her belly was stretching it out and her mid popped bellybutton was showing) we both laugh and then I asked her something dumb “you must really like being pregnant to have a grand total of 4” and she started rubbing her belly and smiled and told me “ yeah I do” after we laughed again she grabbed my hand and asked me the same question I asked her to spark the conversation, she pushed her belly out to me and I know this was the part where I was too chicken ( more people were coming into the aisle) I laughed and told her about the brand and I started to blush real hard and she saw I was and I made a quick exit after. Everyone I told this story to told me that she was flirting with me hard especially to hold my hand after a short conversation about her belly.

In her early 20’s same as I was at the time, I regret not going all in. I’m still waiting for a bare belly moment

Damn, that's a lot of kids for her age

I has been hard to have many encounters since the start of the pandemic.  Just getting close to a stranger in general is still kind of weird. 

During the summer of 2020 during the 1st "lull" in covid, my wife and kids had to get out and do something.  We took a long weekend to the mountains of PA for the for the summer "reopening" of a ski resort.  The place had an indoor water park and the water was COLD.  For obvious reasons the place wasn't crowded at all, maybe 100 people were there.  My kids are off doing their thing when in walks a lovely, very pregnant latina woman.  She was wearing a red bikini.  Halter-top for growing boobs and a bottom with a white frill that said "I'm self conscious about my ass, but also Look at my ass".  In tow she had 2 kids, 1 in a stroller and 1 no older that 4yrs, and grandparents.  She takes her oldest and they start to wade into the wave pool.  She makes it about waist deep and had a hand under her large belly like she was trying to lift it out of the cold water.  My youngest starts to play with her kid.  Like any responsible adult during a pandemic, I went to ask if my kid playing with hers was ok with her.  She was fine with it and we pointed out each others families. I asked how far along she was and she told me she was 34wks with a girl.  We chit chat about a few things when the wave generator comes on.  A large wave of cold water hits us both. She lets out a quick scream, jumps and starts to fall back with the wave.  I steady her with one hand at her back and gently place one hand at the top of her belly as she settles.  She was surprised by the sudden splash of cold water but ok.  Then I feel a flutter under my hand on her belly, followed by a strong push out.  She let out a small wince at the discomfort and I comment that baby girl didn't like the splash of cold either.  She said that baby girl was active anytime she was awake. I could see and feel a swirl of movement in her belly. A large lump moved under my hand and the kicks turned into the rhythmic movement of hiccups.  She then excused her self to dry off and warm up.
