Is It Dangerous For Me To Sit On Wife's Belly?

Hello

I have a somewhat strange question.
Me and my wife like to sit on each other stomach. Mostly she let’s me sit on her stomach.
For us it’s a kind of bounding thing maybe even a fetish. A moment we talk about “serious things”.
My question is: Is there any danger in sitting on her belly.
Sometimes she let’s me sit for 30 minutes or so. It doesn’t hurt her. The only thing she experiences is the fact that her legs feel kind of numb after some time. The reason for my question is that she relaxes her stomach after a few minutes completely an I can feel my weight sink in to her stomach. No use of stomach muscles at al so I think her intestines support my weight because her belly makes a really comfy and soft seat.
We like it both but we don’t want to take a health risk. Can you tell me if our bellysitting habit is dangerous in ay way?

Hello and welcome to HCM,
Weight on the belly fr prolonged duration can cause discomfort especially when one has had food.
This compression can cause vomiting if the time elapsed between food intake and belly sitting is short.
The feeling of numbness in the legs can be due to compression of the nerves supplying the lower limbs.
There can be mechanical injury to the abdominal organs due to the pressure.
There are no other side effects of belly sitting besides these.

Thanks and take care
