Ellie Kemper's pregnancy pet peeve: "I'm like ahh!"

Mom-to-be Ellie Kemper is finding out quickly that pregnancy makes strangers go a little nutty. Where once the most interaction you'd get is a half-smile or comment on the weather, now there's touching.
"Now I'm showing and I don?t know what goes through a person?s mind?a stranger's mind no less?when they think oh yes, your stomach is something that now belongs to me and I can touch it," the pregnant actress shared on Today Sunday. "It?s actually crazy."
"In a way, I think it?s a nice reminder of humanity, but then I quickly go back to the idea that you wouldn?t do this if I wasn?t pregnant."
Ellie, who is pictured below with her The Secret Life of Pets costars, is currently expecting her first child with husband Michael Koman.
Speaking of the belly-touching, the star of Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt went on to say that it's less weird now that she's showing, but even friends touching her first-trimester stomach weirded her out.
