I've had the belly-stroking while pregnant with Jazzy, but by the time I started showing with Kaylee I'd perfected my glare. People comment on their hair all the time but no one has tried to touch it for a while. The thing that bothered me the most was when they were small enough to fit in the carrier on my chest (seperate times, obviously) and random strangers thought it perfectly okay to pat their heads or try to hold their hands or even try to kiss them on the head! I have even had one oblivious person pat Jazzy on the head under the cover while I was discreetly breastfeeding her.
Oh! When Jazzy was two, we had a woman freak out on seeing her because "OMFG!!! Your daughter is a changeling! She's a fairy, you are so blessed to have been chosen to care for her!" She was not happy when I said it was impossible because Jazzy sneezed a moment after being born and that there wasn't enough time for her to have been swapped.
