I am 100% in agreement with you about strangers and even people you know touching your belly like it is some sort of new greeting. It really makes me feel uncomfortable. The last lady at my work that rubbed my belly, I rubbed hers back and boy did she get the point quick! Someone posted another site here once that was my favorite was "unless you are the person who put this in here or you are the person who is going to take this baby out, hands off!"
Oh the fun parts of pregnancy! It is all worth it in the end but it is good to know we all share the same scenerios.
