Sooo....early Christmas present?

Congrats! Babys are a life changer for sure.

And apparently, he's as stubborn as the rest of my family >.< I nearly had to reschedule this past appointment because he didn't want to wake up and uncurl for the doctor to look him over.

My daughter would only moon us whenever I had an ultrasound done, to the point when the tech would switch sides of my belly she's heave herself over to moon us some more. I plenty of pics of her butt in the womb.

Out of all the mommy friends I have now, several of them ended up posting the ultrasound pics confirming the sex on Facebook. So basically they're showing off their new son/daughter's genitalia to the world!

One mommy I know (who now has a 2-year-old and is planning on #2 towards the end of this year) ended up posting her entire 3D ultrasound TWICE. She also got week-by-week belly pics, but they were more to help a friend who was building a photography portfolio.

Oh, gods, parental overshare.

I will have to say, I have not done this. I will not do this. There is not a single picture of my child up on the internet yet because there doesn't need to be one.

But I have been finding humor from it through this blog: http://www.stfuparentsblog.com/

Oh, gods, parental overshare.

My cousin who has just had her baby has luckily kept the overshare to a minimum.

While she's done the pics (he appears to actually be very full of life already ) of him, she hasn't mentioned anything about his habits in public (the extent she's done has been on a photo comment).

On the other hand, I've heard everything from "bubs has toothy pegs" to "bubs is already a boob-suckling champion". AGH.

I generally keep my comments about J to the picture captions. My family lives 2000 miles away and only met her this last Christmas (she turned 3 last week) so pictures are the only way they see her. I post some funny things she did (like eating my mashed potatoes and trying to blame the cat when they were still on her face/mouth) but most stuff is kept to ourselves or my family list. Not everyone needs/wants to hear it.

I post things Khan says or does that are funny or bizarre, or observations on being first-time parent, but I try to make it all amusing.

There are some things you should never post to social media, such as naked baby pictures, pictures of the contents of your child's diaper or vomit, and pictures of your child in the ER, obviously frightened and in pain (seen this last one twice in the past month...really, maybe you should be attending to your little girl with the broken arm or the toddler with the gash on his head, instead of taking embarrassing photos of them).

Don't forget to pack a pair of shivs for people who decide that they don't need to ask before patting yer belly >_> ... Just to scare them off, of course

[Mishi]

I do the same as AnaKhouri, I only share funny/sweet/truly awesome moments, and I post non-mummy things too. As much as I love my kids, my entire existence doesn't revolve around them. Also, STFU Parents is my pre-post test...if there's a chance that it might end up there, I don't share it.

you need this shirt

(there is one out there that says "due in August" but I'm too lazy to find it )

[Kheldarson]

Love it! Just too bad I can't wear it at work!
