I'm not sure I want to see pictures of someone's innards on facebook. A bit too much information?

Wouldn't bother me to he honest but not sure I would have done it myself.

I don't mind actually. It's lovely to be a part of family pregnancies who are abroad.

Thinking of an ante natal scan as "someone's innards" is akin to describing a baby as a poo - they are both expelled from the body no?

You just mean a scan pic? Or something else?

I agree with you. People just have no dignity these days

My baby is akin to a poo. She is mainly made of poo Sad

NO, innards would be your organs. Poo would be stuff.

It's hardly a graphic representation so yabu

Yabu the only "innards" to be seen is a uterus which is basically fuzz around the actual baby. If you don't approve of people posting scan pictures then say so, don't use an excuse.

If it's not a graphic representation, what is it? Also, once a picture is on fb, it's out. You are not simply sharing a photo amongst friends. Ha ha! Perhaps a slew of tooth x-rays and gut movies are the new order!

Are you really comparing an x-ray of a tooth to a unborn human? Hmm It doesn't really bother me, what does bother me is seeing photos on FB of newborn babies still covered in goo.

I expect that'll be next. Can't wait... At least by then, all things being equal, the child will be breathing air. But what is basically a medical procedure?

I'm due a colonoscopy but I've been putting it off. Maybe this is my reason to have it done. My lucky friends Grin

Grin Your lucky friends indeed! Compare and contrast! I would worry that these images spread around the place and arrived back. Rather like chinese whispers.

So.. what is the most unsuitable and distasteful thing that has arrived on your facebook page? I mind because I do not want to know the intimate details of someone I know only by name.

I'd rather see a picture of someone's inards than read the constant innermost thoughts and feelings of a couple of people I know who are incapable of censoring the "not appropriate for every man and his dog to read" out of their posts!

How needlessly provocative. A baby is not your innards. Your innards are your innards.

For gods sake someone is just trying to share their news with friends. Don't have so many people on fb that you don't know well enough to be happy for them!

I don't like people's baby or child photos as profile pics tho - keep your own identity!

Having a baby is such a huge part of your life, I don't know why it's a problem sharing it on FB.
