She kept gushing about how babies are super-adorable while touching my tummy for a good two minutes. I was stunned since it is just too weird for a complete stranger to do something like this. But, as soon as I recovered, I joked about how I am never coming to that store ever again. I think she got the hint.” – Jasmine

“I am a shy person and I generally feel intimidated when strangers come close to me. Now that I am pregnant, I am genuinely scared that strangers around me might want to touch my belly when it becomes all huge and round.
