When people asks if my belly gets in the way, of course it does and when they ask a follow up question if I mind it my answer being .... sometimes.
Depends the situation in this case being in front a counter or table whenever I need to lean over in order to reach for something my belly prevents me in reaching too far that is until I place my belly ON the counter or table I am able to lean further (it can be a bit of an annoyance ... sometimes)
