I told everyone from the start....no video and pictures will be closely monitored. I didn't want anyone including Nick (especially Nick) looking at my lady parts while I was giving birth.
Of course that all goes out the window in the heat of the moment. We took the Flip video camera for before and after shots. And I ended up letting the moms stay in the room so they could take pictures. I still didn't want the birth taped or pictures of it. Now I can say...just a week or so ago, I realized I was a little sad that I didn't have it. I was so opposed to it, but now...I'm curious.
When it came to pictures, we have a bunch. Most are private to me out of respect for my daughter. I don't want to be that mom who shows naked pictures of my kid to everyone (plus after working at Myspace and seeing how many creeps are out there, I don't trust people). And I really did not want to see anything gross, or have people see my stuff.
BUT....we were so excited to share our moment with everyone we love. People kept asking for pictures and proud daddy Nick, posted a few on his Facebook page. In particular, he was proud of his cord cutting ability. His mom snapped a picture of it and Nick posted it up for all to see. And then came the comments from several of his friends....I opened it up on my phone to see what everyone was saying and was HORRIFIED and MORTIFIED!!! Nick had unknowingly put my va-jay-jay up for all to see. He was on the phone with his grandma, but I did not care...I started yelling "take it down, take it down!!!"
There are still a few people I can't look in the eye because I know they've seen all of me. Moral of the story....momma must approval ALL photos before they go up.
