Is it weird to ask your family and Husbands family not to post pictures of your baby on FB before you have a chance to do so yourself?

I got into a little bit of a back and forth with my Sister in law and HER Mother on Christmas <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.glow.android.eve">Eve</a>. Because I said I didn’t know if we were going to post pictures of our baby on FB. Well my husband doesn’t do FB or any social media. He thinks it is silly and I kind of agree. I just don’t know how much I’ll be sharing on FB.

Well my SIL told me I absolutely have to send pictures to our husbands Grandpa, like Immediately. I said I was thinking about doing official announcements so I would probably hold off until I decided what I wanted to do.

Well she told me I couldn’t do that. 🤯

My SIL have also told me that I have to have the family up to the hospital and all the kids. Etc. I told her we weren’t going to do all that. They told me again. I can’t do that. 🤯

This is all been bothering me because when I had a Gender Reveal party, which was way over the too. My SIL took video and pictures which was all very nice of her! Don’t get me wrong, but then she posted it on FB saying “Another Boy” - Mind you this is my FIRST baby and My parents FIRST Grandbaby! I felt like she tried to down play how big of a deal this was for my Family. ESPECIALLY since I wanted a boy and my Dad who had 2 Girls always wanted a BOY! It is not just another boy to us!!! It’s the most special thing we could have gotten. Not that we wouldn’t have been happy about a girl.

I watched this video on the What to Expect App. It basically said that too many visitors and being overly held is actually stressful for the baby! Not to overdo it!

So, Isn’t it more selfish to want everyone to come visit and stress the mom and baby out after birth? ( which is most traumatic for the Mother and Baby ??)
