So I went to a friend's wedding over the weekend and flew home today. While through security I beeped, lucky me. A TSA agent asked if I wanted to go through that big scanner and I politely declined so they said I'd need to get a pat down. I agreed as I didn't have a choice really.
What a horrible feeling! I had a 50-something year old lady pat me down in front of a lot of people in public. The worst part is having her hands all over me, especially the lower part of my 34-week belly.
Normally I am okay with with it but this time it make me feel so violated and vulnerable, especially being pregnant this late into my pregnancy. I was fighting back tears and almost lost it emotionally when the agent told me "you don't have to be scared". Like thanks; I'm not scared, I'm emotional and vulnerble.
