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 🥲

most of the time, I observe that people in the priority seats are more than willing to give up their seats automatically if they see elderly, pregnant ladies or like injured people who needs it more than them. For pregnant ladies, sometimes it may not be that obvious and by giving up the seat to them, they may be awkward if they are not actually pregnant. My friend was asked to sit down cuz she was wearing a baggy dress but she wasn't pregnant or anything. If you need the seat, just ask and I'm sure they will be willing to give up the seat to you.. or at least youngsters in other seats will! :)
