Why do pregnant women post their sonogram photos on Facebook?

[Jennifer]

Each person is different. Pregnant women are very excited about the baby they are growing and a lot of people are excited to see the progress. I love it when my friends post pictures of their belly, especially when we do not live in the same city and I don't get to see them much through their pregnancy. There are plenty of things people put on facebook that nobody cares about, but it is their facebook page and they are under no obligation to sensor it for other people. I don't care to know that you've decided to lounge on the couch for the day and eat Doritos, yet people still post it in their status updates. I would much rather see someone's beautiful belly than someone complain about how they are having yet another horrible day for the 7th time this week. It's a belly and a baby, there isn't much that should be private about it.
