I'm so sorry your MIL did this to you. I'm sure she is just really excited and that's sweet.... but I'd be pretty annoyed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-be-annoyed#post-445412 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 17:31:55 +0000 mizjl 445412@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>YES! VERY annoyed and upset. I don't think posting photos of other people's children, unborn or otherwise, is appropriate at all. ESPECIALLY if you asked her not to tell anyone before 12 weeks. I'm so sorry she did that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-be-annoyed#post-444981 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 14:05:33 +0000 Smurfette 444981@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ash: haha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-be-annoyed#post-444978 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 14:04:02 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 444978@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>dude, anything someone posts a picture of anyone or their baby---they should ask first.<br /> I would have been pissed!<br /> But I'd just say it to her nicely &amp; move on. Clearly she did it out of excitement an not hate:/ but still---soo annoying! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-be-annoyed#post-444976 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 14:03:09 +0000 Ash 444976@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep. But everything my MIL does annoys me. So I don't count. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-be-annoyed#post-444972 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 14:01:52 +0000 SouthPaw 444972@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>YUP! I feel like if you wanted it there you would have put it there =) sorry... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-be-annoyed#post-444856 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 12:54:45 +0000 HLK208 444856@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@septemberlove: rude, I'm sorry :( can DH talk to her for you? All my husband said to his mom was, "please remove the u/s photo" when I wish he would have said much more! It's personal. Although, my MIL isn't really old and she uses Facebook more than I do so I'm pretty sure she was aware that it was wrong. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-be-annoyed#post-444854 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 12:53:41 +0000 Turd Ferguson 444854@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-be-annoyed#post-444851 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 12:51:52 +0000 HLK208 444851@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>YES! She did, without our permission, when we asked her not to share our news until I was 12 weeks.</p> <p>It's not hers to share. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-be-annoyed#post-444835 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 12:44:59 +0000 kiddosc 444835@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This sounds like a case of old people and the internet. We told everyone not to post on FB when E was born because we wanted to post it, and the person who outed us was my 75 year old grandma. We never even thought to tell her not to post it. Your MIL probably doesn't realize posting the pic is any different than showing her friends at the office. I would explain to her how you feel about posting that kind of stuff online (especially with your info attached) and ask her to take it down. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-be-annoyed#post-444826 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 12:40:28 +0000 ladyfingers 444826@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. That is so personal! I'm sorry she did this :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-be-annoyed#post-444789 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 12:15:34 +0000 lomom 444789@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wasn't planning to post u/s pictures. I think it's too personal for Facebook and having my personal info on the Internet makes me super uncomfortable :-/</p> <p>I dont know if it's worth the argument or not... Ugh. I wish people could just be more respectful. Granted, I never told her not to but I haven't done it, so why would she think it's okay? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-be-annoyed#post-444615 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 11:03:05 +0000 Bao 444615@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd be upset, and would ask her to take it down! Actually I'd have DH ask probably ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-be-annoyed#post-444610 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 11:01:50 +0000 prettylizy 444610@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would be annoyed but I wouldn't say anything. For me, the payoff of saying something is not worth the aggravation of having a tiff with my MIL. This would fall under 'pick your battles' for me, but you might feel more strongly about it. I would get DH to say something if it is a big deal to you. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-be-annoyed#post-444607 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 10:59:46 +0000 dagret 444607@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would. I haven't even posted my OWN ultrasound pictures on FB... Plus the personal information thing... yuck. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-be-annoyed#post-444520 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 10:30:13 +0000 Springtime 444520@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Um yes! Definitely! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-be-annoyed#post-444518 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 10:29:33 +0000 Pink Champagne 444518@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's not her news to share. I would be livid!<br /> I would also have DH call his mom and have her take it down immediately. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-be-annoyed#post-444478 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 10:09:22 +0000 erwoo 444478@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Only if she didn't know you weren't planning on posting it or announcing it just yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-be-annoyed#post-444462 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 10:04:45 +0000 Foodnerd81 444462@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think I would be slightly annoyed, but not that upset. But I would ask her, or have your husband ask her, to take it down, giving the reasons that others have said. </p> <p>My dad is a big one for posting pictures without asking, or taking a pic that someone else has up and acting like it's his own (like saving it to his comp and re-uploading, instead of sharing someone else's photo). He's just excited but I can see how it's annoying. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-be-annoyed#post-444452 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 10:02:26 +0000 Alivoo01 444452@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Totally! I'd tell her to take it down if I didn't want it posted at all! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-be-annoyed#post-444438 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 09:58:50 +0000 plaidpants 444438@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would be livid! It was really important for me to set boundaries right away and stick with them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-be-annoyed#post-444389 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 09:38:37 +0000 MusicaV 444389@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! There are plenty of other ways to express her excitement. Depending on your relationship with your MIL, maybe ask your husband to talk to her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-be-annoyed#post-444340 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 09:11:57 +0000 autumnlove 444340@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wouldn't be happy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-be-annoyed#post-444338 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 09:11:38 +0000 T.H.O.U. 444338@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree its a bit much. Just let her know you shared the picture for her personal use not for sharing. I agree with just letting her know you weren't ready to share. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-be-annoyed#post-444332 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 09:07:10 +0000 blackbird 444332@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ew, yes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-be-annoyed#post-444331 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 09:05:09 +0000 SugarplumsMom 444331@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would be pissed and have a talk with her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-be-annoyed#post-444316 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 08:53:53 +0000 Mrsbells 444316@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@septemberlove: YES YES YES i would be very annoyed. That is a very personal picture to share on facebook without my consent </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-be-annoyed#post-444301 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 08:43:31 +0000 sorrycharlie 444301@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd be annoyed! Especially that your info was up there. I'd just kindly say "hey, I don't mean to sound crazy but would you mind taking down the us photo? We didn't want to share it just yet, and also my name/dr is on there..thanks!!" She has no room to argue! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-be-annoyed#post-444271 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 08:29:36 +0000 Adira 444271@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would be annoyed, ESPECIALLY if it had my name and info still attached to it!!! I would maybe ask her to take it down and mention the fact that it has your name and DOB and doctor's office info on it and you'd rather that info not be out on the internet. </p>
