How tacky and sad for the baby to joke about his penis to multiple thousands of strangers =/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ig-your-labor#post-1437916 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 16:56:45 +0000 MoonMoon 1437916@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@grizz: me too! I made my mom and husband promise not to tell anyone I was at the hospital! (in retrospect, they probably did, but no one bugged me, so I'm happy!)</p> <p>Labor + delivery on public social networking sites? Hell to the no. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ig-your-labor#post-1437904 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 16:53:21 +0000 Boheme 1437904@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No! I wouldn't have even thought to post it on IG. I was also paranoid of being pestered, so we didn't tell anybody I was in labor. It was like "Surprise, baby!" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ig-your-labor#post-1437896 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 16:51:56 +0000 Mrs. M 1437896@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ig-your-labor#post-1437816 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 16:36:48 +0000 cheert16 1437816@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope...

I would love to get a video shortly after birth of me and the baby getting to know each other and would post snippets of that but no video of labor, yuck. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ig-your-labor#post-1436985 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 14:12:11 +0000 yoursilverlining 1436985@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No. That's such a private, personal moment (or hours and hours, rather haha) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ig-your-labor#post-1436976 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 14:11:03 +0000 mrs. wagon 1436976@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. High Heels: you stoppit with your TOMS and 3rd babies, seriously. </p> <p>I also loved the HB support while waiting to go into labor... when I heard there was a Waggy Watch I totally started crying!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ig-your-labor#post-1436967 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 14:10:01 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1436967@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. wagon: aww you're so sweet!! gotta be honest, i think you are doing the world a GREAT DISSERVICE by not bringing in another cute wagon baby into the world! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ig-your-labor#post-1436956 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 14:08:39 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1436956@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i also posted a lot on HB while i was in labor, and the support of this community was incredible, and it was so fun reading through everyone's comments in the middle of my labor! seriously, it kept my mind off the pain and before i knew it, baby was here! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ig-your-labor#post-1436955 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 14:08:27 +0000 mrs. wagon 1436955@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. High Heels: I totally remember seeing the pic of you cuddling J after he was born! so beautiful.

So... early labor, sure!</p> <p>I made Wagon Sr. agree to put down the camera once pushing started and not pick it back up until after the baby was out. Otherwise he shot photos and video before and after. Very little gore and no crotch shots. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ig-your-labor#post-1436923 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 14:02:46 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1436923@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>hahah, i totally did... it was fun and kept my mind busy... </p> <p>nothing too crazy, just a few pics of me and my husband arriving at the hospital, then me laboring on a birth ball, and then the final aftermath of me with a baby in my arms. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ig-your-labor#post-1436919 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 14:02:05 +0000 pui 1436919@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I could see doing a "we're checked in" and then a "look, a baby!" post but that's it. DEFINITELY no video, especially not of me getting an epidural. Yikes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ig-your-labor#post-1436912 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 14:00:23 +0000 T.H.O.U. 1436912@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>no, no videos. But I don't mind the IG progression of various labor pictures. Just general, hey we checked in, hey I'm hooked up, hey, things are progressing, and then here is squishy baby. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ig-your-labor#post-1436893 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 13:56:49 +0000 snowjewelz 1436893@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nooo way I wouldn't even want to watch myself labor and I wouldn't put other people through that! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ig-your-labor#post-1436784 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 13:31:06 +0000 lemondrop 1436784@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>1. I doubt I would even have time!</p> <p>2. No. video. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ig-your-labor#post-1436777 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 13:28:56 +0000 cascademom 1436777@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Whoa, they video'd her getting an epidural. Husbands are even allowed in the room during that procedure at my hospital. I would take a picture at the beginning of labor and then with a squishy baby, otherwise no. </p> <p>I hope that they're good parents. The various Twitter stories and articles I've read about them gives me pause about how they'll act as parents. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ig-your-labor#post-1436771 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 13:27:49 +0000 Adira 1436771@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely not! I might IG that I'm AT the hospital and then a pic of the BABY (not me because I looked terrible), but that's the extent of it! No actual in-labor posts! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ig-your-labor#post-1436766 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 13:26:42 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 1436766@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ig-your-labor#post-1436762 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 13:26:08 +0000 Bao 1436762@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, personal moments for just DH and I. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ig-your-labor#post-1436761 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 13:26:03 +0000 preggomeggo82 1436761@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, I'll take photos for myself if I feel the need, but it's not something I plan on. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ig-your-labor#post-1436756 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 13:24:58 +0000 swedishfish 1436756@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think anyone wants to me like that, ha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ig-your-labor#post-1436753 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 13:24:21 +0000 regberadaisy 1436753@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, I would be too busy being IN labor!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ig-your-labor#post-1436751 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 13:23:54 +0000 Smurfette 1436751@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lovehoneybee: I saw that.
