Need my priority seat.

Hey Mummies, I'm 19wks 5days preg. My belly looks huge now and I walk like a penguin🐧. I commute to work by MRT. There are days I wore like loose clothing and I understand that why people don't give up their seat but when I wore super tight clothes that stick to the body which can see my belly bump. I'm quite surprised people don't give up their seats despite me rubbing my belly like obviously🤰🏽, i notice they were looking but their eyes are glued back on their phone. I cant stand too long otherwise I'll get like bits of cramps here and there on my lower belly. How should I ask for a priority seat? What if they don't want to give seats. I don't want to face like embarrassing moments etc. Or even get myself video by some random strangers n em' posting it online. Help 🥲

I personally don’t ask for seats while I’m pregnant cause everyone paid for a seat and I don’t want people to think just because I’m pregnant I need to feel entitled… But I was luckier cause I never had issues standing for long due to the nature of my work (f&b). If you really feel you needed one, just walk up to any youngsters on the priority seat and ask if they can let you have the seat (nicely of course) instead as you’re not feeling too well standing. Im pretty sure they will be more than willing to give up their seat for you 😃 Some people’s mindsets are: If you don’t ask, I assume you don’t need it. 🙂 The reason why people ended up on social media is because they demanded for the seats when they could’ve just asked nicely.
