    I'm so curious, I have to ask this question, and it's not meant offensively, I'm just genuinely curious because this seems to be happening often.

    OP, you've posted a handful of times on this board - what makes you comfortable sharing such intimate and personal pictures with ladies you don't know?  Is it for the compliments?

    ETA: Well, never mind, it looks like the vast majority of your posts are pics...

    I have actually posted a lot of times on here, personal stories from struggles with my mom to being on bedrest and supported people with vbac since I had done that as well. I figured those I had talked with and knew me through those things would like to see the story of delivery instead of just typing my story. Thought the photographer turned out really neat and told the delivery story through pics. No searching for compliments...kind of weird comment.

    @Justabean3‌ thank you!!! Had never used a photographer before in delivery or knew too much about it and was so happy with what she captured! Thought other people would want to see what it can be about so they can use one this time or even with future births :)

    Really who cares why she posted?? This slideshow is beautiful. There is no crowning shots or anything even remotely inappropriate. Congrats. It is a beautiful moment you shared. I will complement you and your photographer... Amazing
    I'm genuinely curious because I think it's interesting when people only post pictures.  I'm not asking with ill intent.

    I'm in Dfw area and birth photography is very popular here. In fact I wanted to do it for my C section "above the curtain" but the OB agreed and the Ana didn't so they wouldn't allow it. I was so disappointed!! both doctors have to approve it at my hospital. my BFF does this and she drove 1.5 to come at 7a. I was not happy but hey I got a baby so neither of us were that sad.

    @Justabean3‌ that does stink about the restrictions with a c section and who can be in the room. If you have another c section if you have more kids I bet they can get some really good pics getting you ready in pre-op and then right after showing baby to family and their first bath and meeting your kids. But glad to hear your baby is here safely!!!

    Is this a very regional thing?  I am in the Chicago area (I use that term loosely) and I've never known about this until TB!

    But I have some takeaways - first, your kids are all adorable!  Second, I'm taking a screen shot of your hair to my appointment next week!

    I wouldn't say regional but more populated areas are getting really into it.

    Look up birth photography

    Lol! Thank you!! I am also in the Dallas area like Justabean3 but my friends sister is a photographer and offered to do them so I figured why not. It was really nice for my husband and I to just enjoy the moment and not have to worry about taking pictures right after or during delivery- that's the number one reason i would recommend it. You can just live in the moment and enjoy it!! Good luck with finding a photographer!!
