Aidan's belly infatuation

I sent this in to this Momtourage site for "weird habbits that kids have" they published it on the site so I thought I'd share


Get Off My Belly!
De-De, Missouri

It all started when I was pregnant with my second child, my 1 year old, Aidan, at the time was still breastfeeding, I quickly had to wean him as my doctor thought it would be best for my pregnancy so when he wanted to nurse I'd have him "hold the baby" instead of nursing. Bad idea! Here we are 2 years later and he's going to be 4 and he still wants to hold and play with what he calls "his belly button". Though he does say he would like me to have another baby so that my belly is big for him. I've tried everything but nothing has worked. We'll be in a store and he'll start reaching up from the bottom of my shirt to find his belly button to play with . He'll whine "I want my belly" when I stop him. It's so embarrassing! It's a very strange habit, I would just like my belly button back! My advice to any woman pregnant with other children, do not allow your kiddos to "hold the baby" in your belly.
