non-clicky poll: nude baby photos on FB

in Babies: 3 - 6 Months

I just saw a high school friend's FB page, and she has about 50 photos of her 4 week old son up. He's literally naked in 3/4 of them, and they are all close-ups from above. We're not FB friends, so if I can see these pics, anyone on the web can.

So what do you ladies think? Personally, I am guilty of having over 300 pics of LO on FB. However, I always cover him with a cloth if I'm taking a bath time or nakey time photo and won't put anything on FB if something is showing that would be covered by a diaper (i.e. not just privates but the area above them, butt cheeks, etc) but a couple of my friends have newborn hospital photos taken from the side that happen to show a little bit of baby junk, and I never really gave those a second thought.

 Do you put complete nude pics of LO on FB? If not, where do you draw the line?

    Never! DD in a diaper sure but only while she is a baby and by baby I mean under 1.

    nope, I am not putting them anywhere they can be shared in a public forum. I think we are avoiding taking any real nakie photos anyway.

    I'll admit to having one or two pics of DS in his diaper, but none that are full-on, you-see-everything naked pics. He'll be an adult one day and won't appreciate anyone being able to see his genitals. Buttcheek pics are okay, IMO, if tastfully done- baby butts are just cute. But I won't make my kid the object of some sick pervy-pedophile. I also have my FB page so that only people I've friended can see my profile pics. I'm against having an open page for just anyone to look at my stuff.

    Nude baby photos should not show any cracks or bits.  Tacky!

    The internet is not a safe place to be posting fully naked pictures of your LO IMO

    We don't take photos without her bits covered, but if we did, we would not share them or put them on fb.  Its pretty irresponsible and inappropriate IMO.  We don't put up bath photos at all even if her bits are covered.  There are lots of creeps out there.
    I give up trying to get a ticker.  I have a DD that is 2.5 years old and is awesome.  Maybe I'll add a quote to distinguish myself.  Hmmm.  How about...

    I do not know why anyone would want any totally nude photos of their child. We have pictures of DS in his CDs, but that is as naked as he gets.

    I have one of DS on the scale after he was born and he's naked. And I have a couple of him topless (risque!). And one of me holding him before his bath - we're both naked in that one but you can't see anything except for his rolly back and the side of his butt. I wouldn't share pictures of him naked (showing off his genitals) aside from that one newborn pic. We have a few of him and i bathing and those are for our photo albums and for nobody else to see.

    I have one naked pic of her  on FB from the side, but everything is covered and even her butt is just in profile.

    Same here.

    I'm pretty conservative and won't post anything of him unless he is fully covered. I won't even do a picture of him in his diaper. I just don't think it's necessary. I don't have a problem of other people doing it; I'm just not comfortable with it.

    i don't do it... I even went as far as going to paint and making a swimsuit for DD for a bath time pic!

    I would show pictures of DS in the bath covering up his private parts, diaper and probably butt pic from behind.  I would never show a full frontal nude pic of lo on FB.

    I have a strict no whoo-whoo rule when it comes to Claire. I didn't even post her first bath pictures, even the ones where she was covered with a washcloth. I don't have a problem with naked babies per se but I DO have an issue with pervs who stalk the internet. Blegh!

    I only have a couple of pics of him in his diaper, but we live in a hot climate, so that's what he's wearing often.

    That being said, I have my FB on lockdown - very few people can see those pics, and you can't even find me by typing my name in the search.

    I also want to mention something I found out accidentally. My brother had a really cute pic of my nephew in his underpants playing rock band as his profile pic a couple of years ago, and when I typed his name into the regular Google Image search (he is a police officer, so I was curious what would happen if people Googled him), that picture of my nephew was the third one that came up! So be careful what you use as your main profile pic!

    Nope! It's cute for family purposes only... otherwise I find it creepy for others to see my kids naked, and it's considered (although not intended) child porn and illegal (not to be dramatic...)

    DH and I have an agreement no baby pics on FB unless they don't show LO's faces... fully clothed... and even with that all my pictures are security protected so only friends can see.

    He's always in a diaper. He is nekkid except for that, which I don't have a problem with.

    Any private parts, bottom included, are not put on the interwebz at all. This includes email.

    Just curious... Do people think that by posting a pix of a baby on a diaper that random crazies are going to come and kidnap their kid? I mean, I don't post girly bits on the Internet but I have no problem with pics in a diaper on FB. I use privacy settings and I don't think there's anything remotely scandalous about a baby's bare chest. In Europe kids run around naked on the beach. Don't friend people you don't know, use privacy settings so only friends can see your pics, and you're good to go. Modesty is one thing but this paranoia about strangers on the Internet sort of baffles me. Don't friend creepy strangers and you should be good. I'm pretty restrictive about my friend list, though, so maybe that's why I don't get it.

    I have some of him in just a CD because that's all this sweaty kid usually wears just hanging around at home- CD look m ore "clothed" than disposables to me.

    Naked pictures posted on FB make me uncomfortable. Baby bottoms I can handle , but just for family, not posted.

    I have some pics of DS on FB but none are nude.  We did have some taken for Christmas where he was naked except for wearing a Santa hat; he looked like Mr. December and DH thought we were whoring our DS but it was absolutely adorable. My sister has a picture of my nephew running on the beach naked with her dogs on her Shutterfly page but that's it.

    I did read an article a while ago that was saying if you have nude pictures of a child poster on the internet like FB it could be considered child porn and you could get in trouble.
