I was like, "I don't really have time to!" and DH said, "I told him that!". I try to spend DD's awake time interacting with her, not texting - save for a friend, we text all day. doesn't count. :P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-normal-6#post-1929823 Tue, 04 Nov 2014 19:14:55 +0000 Bao 1929823@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's different, but I'd take it as a compliment and that she loves your LO! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-normal-6#post-1929818 Tue, 04 Nov 2014 19:11:44 +0000 Anagram 1929818@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Glitter: I'd say it's normal...for some people. Not my family, but I have friends who post--daily--photos of their niece and nephew. They post more pics of someone else's kid that I do of my own kid. :shocked: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-normal-6#post-1929751 Tue, 04 Nov 2014 18:12:32 +0000 youboots 1929751@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shutterbug that's what I do! So does my sister who has 2 kids- so easy!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-normal-6#post-1929747 Tue, 04 Nov 2014 18:10:49 +0000 Emsmems 1929747@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Shutterbug: we do the same thing. Our parents and family all have iPhones so we have a shared photo stream on the cloud and upload pictures so all family can see them. </p> <p>Now, if I don't post for like, 4 days my parents get a little antsy, but not every day! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-normal-6#post-1929741 Tue, 04 Nov 2014 18:08:23 +0000 Shutterbug 1929741@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Glitter: does she have an iPhone? Do you? My BFF has a private (invite only) photo stream set up for pics of her LO so her parents, siblings, ILs, me, etc can all get the same pic updates. I think it's easier for her that way. I don't think its weird, but if you're uncomfortable with it, that's what matters. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-normal-6#post-1929735 Tue, 04 Nov 2014 18:04:56 +0000 Glitter 1929735@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlejoy: I upload to fb and Instagram regularly, but she is not into social media, so she wants me to send them directly to her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-normal-6#post-1929728 Tue, 04 Nov 2014 18:00:32 +0000 ElbieKay 1929728@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't like it when people are demanding about photos. I send them when I take them. I took a lot more when I was on maternity leave, and I also took more before the sun started setting earlier. Now if I take photos in the evening, they are grainy so it's not worth the effort. I don't always have time to get good photos every day (or even every other day). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-normal-6#post-1929721 Tue, 04 Nov 2014 17:56:34 +0000 littlejoy 1929721@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would setup a FB album ... change privacy settings so only certain people can see it. We do this for our long-distance family. They can look when they want, and I just upload each day from my phone. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-normal-6#post-1929717 Tue, 04 Nov 2014 17:52:23 +0000 Glitter 1929717@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My SIL wants us to send her pics or videos of our six month old son every other day. Literally. And when we send, we send at least five at a time. She also sees him at least twice weekly. Is it normal for relatives to need to see pics of your baby that often? She insists she misses him soooo badly and just needs a pic. I'm getting weirded out by it. </p>
