I've realized that a lot of people here have been able to form good relationships with pregnant women, and while I'm not looking for a girlfriend or anything I just have one question. What has worked for you? Hearing what other people have done makes me want to be able to have those same experiences, and I'm wondering how you guys have been able to feel/rub a pregnant woman's belly.

My best arrangement with a pregnant woman worked by pure dumb luck. I was on OkCupid looking for women to date, unrelated to pregnancy, and happened across a profile where the woman mentioned she was pregnant. I messaged her (this is back when you could do that and they'd actually get your message even if they hadn't "liked" you) and started shooting the shit a little, and then I brought up my fetish. I'm very direct like that because I hate surprises and figure everyone else does, too. She was actually very open to discussing it further (it probably helped that she had been a stripper at one point and therefore had a more open mind), and we met up almost weekly from week 22 'til she popped. Totally platonic, but I got to rub creams and butters and stuff into her belly and just admire the hell out of it. She was also really good company, so the whole thing was just plain nice. She even told me later that she was very glad for the attention, especially since the baby daddy ditched her. Though I would love to have more experiences like that in my life, just having that one took the edge off and now I won't feel like I'm missing out if that's all I ever get.

I've had a few encounters with pregnant women, most were hookups with women I met online, one or two night stands. I did have two lasting 'relationships' for lack of a better term.

First one was an ex that got knocked up. I saw online that she was pregnant, i think she was about 20 weeks at the time, so i reached out to here and we started talking as friends. About a month later the baby daddy bailed so I started talking to her more and we hung out. We started hooking up often and it wasnt much more than just sex. She wasnt interested in jumping back into a relationship and that was totally cool with me. We saw each other a bunch right up until her last few weeks when the baby daddy caught wind of what we were doing and took her back. Worked out great for me and for them as well, they are still together 2 years later.

Second one was a girl I met online. She was about 16 weeks when we started hanging out. This girl I was actually dating and interested in. Things moved quick and she slept over several times every week in part because of how close I was to where she worked. When she was about 30 weeks she got laid off and decided to go on a long road trip with her girl friends. She wanted to do her own thing and be single for the road trip so we parted ways, that one kinda hurt I liked her. About a month later we ended up reconnecting, hung out a few times and then fizzled out as she moved farther away and the drive was hard for both of us. She moved on and started dating some dude, they seem happy.

Most of my encounters with pregnant women were meeting them online. I dont approach them as a person with a fetish. I make friends with them and if it leads to something then great, if not at least I made a new friend. Im always honest with my intentions whether it be sex, friends or actual dating and do my best to never lead someone on.

Nice. Where online did you meet them?

Various dating sites. No one has worked better than another. Its just random chance finding women online. Was much easier when dating sites had keyword searches but those days have past

For me Craigslist used to work wonders, and I never had any luck meeting any from dating sites even though I tried quite a few times. I probably met up with half a dozen pregnant women or more over in a span of a few years through Craigslist, simply by posting ads saying I thought pregnancy was cool and I was looking to meet pregnant women. I usually avoided the word "fetish" but a lot of the replies would end up asking, and surprisingly a lot of those didn't care. I guess if they were looking on Craigslist, they had a certain amount of open mindedness already. Almost all these meetups were non-sexual (but involved TONS of belly rubbing) and a few of them I even became friends with and hung out multiple times. Honestly, that was more satisfying to me than sex or a relationship. But of course Craigslist got rid of the personals section, and even charges money for posting in most areas now so it will probably be very difficult to make it work nowadays. There are still ways, but you have to get creative. I'm not sure there are any other sites that offer the same sort of option to just make a post and let the pregnant women come to you lol.

That's pretty much how it went for me, too. Most of the women were absolute flakes, though, so a lot of my time and energy was wasted.

If you miss Craigslist (I sure do, it at least gave me hope), try doublelist.com.
