My MIL rubbed mine once and I must have given her a weird look as she hasn't done it again, when people do it its usually so out of the blue that its a bit of a shock - but raising your eyebrows and asking "Are you right there?" usually does the trick.........

The other thing I read in a pregnancy magazine which I'd love to see say is "I'm not a Genie, so feel free NOT to rub me" LMAO

We have a newsletter at our work which we all contribute too, so I wrote a small funny article about the pro's and con's of being pregnant with one of the con's being "People rubbing my belly, the next person who rubs it will get a belly rub back, don't dare me" and I have been left alone at work since. Although it was written in a funny context, the message was still there
