Do you rub your tummy?

I was sitting here mindlessly rubbing my non existing tummy! LOL

It was actually very soothing and even early on, studies show it is not only good for you but also your baby!

    yes I do.  Sometimes I even put my hand on top of my belly as if there is a bump holding it up there.  :)

    I have found myself rubbing/touching my stomach. I even look in the mirror at it. I have a bump, but it is probably just a bloat bump lol!

    I do. More so when I have cramps or an upset stomach, and find it quite comforting.

    I do a little when I'm at home.  DH and I aren't planning on telling anyone until we've hit the 12 week mark at least, so I make a conscious effort not to do it in public.

    I rub it like its my job... though I do have a slight bump. I think people don't approach me yet because theyre not sure if I'm just fat or pregnant so they don't wanna come up to me and be wrong

    I just found out about 4 days ago that I'm pregnant and I'm rubbing my tummy too!  So is my DH!!  Can't wait 'till there is a little bump there!

    I do it all the time, in public and in private, my sister hates it!! LOL I do have a bump, not sure if its bloat, but I still rock it! ;) And yes, it makes me feel really good, and if there is slight cramps, it helps! :)

    Between the bloating and constipation there were a couple days earlier this week where I felt like I looked about 5 months pregnant!

    But yes, ever since the day I found out I was pregnant I've found myself touching my stomach and also being very aware of things touching it (i.e. my shirt or pants or blankets).  Sometimes I even put my hand on it and slightly rock from side to side. Me and my little bean also have one on one talks Smile

    Yeah I do when I'm laying down.  My husband likes to, at first I didn't let him because I just felt fat, but now I like it :)

    Yeah, but it's mostly because I feel sick all the time right now.  I have to watch myself at work because I haven't told anyone and I don't want to start talk.
