Did you hang adorable baby photos when you were pregnant?

No, I did not get those cute little baby photos. Reason being I do not like to nail my room's wall. So, during my wife pregnancy, she stay at home and watch television. I told her do not watch any scary movies!

I just remember my cousin this moment. She lost her baby in her tummy just a night ago. The baby was not developed. It's kind of sad.

I've never heard of such a custom. I don't think it's so much about what is on the wall, but about the attitude of the pregnant lady, and those around her. I have never been pregnant, but I know a lot of others who have. This is not something I've heard of them doing.

When I was pregnant I was told not to look at monkeys be it real or pictur

I think it gives you happy pleasing feelings while you look at lovely photos during your pregnancy period. The positive energy and vibes not only keep you happy but your entire system works better and that is what is required to give birth to a happy and healthy baby.

When I was pregnant my daughter, I didn't hang a adorable baby photo, but I like play together with a baby or a child that make me happy and forget my pain. Maybe what I done the same with your custom, however I taken differ action. Yes, I think that is encourage of our mood during pregnant.

I do not remember wanting to hang baby pictures while I was pregnant. i was big on pictures after my own children were born,. i have done so much scrapbooking with their pictures.

I took pregnancy pictures of myself while I was pregnant to show family and friends as the second baby grow inside of me. NO I don't hang random baby pictures of children I don't know I do hang up pictures of my own kids when they are born and stuff. I even keep there ultra sound pictures of them before they are born.

No, we don't have that custom observed here, but it is generally good and beneficial for the mother and child inside the womb to keep a positive mindset. Having pictures of inspirational and beautiful things around would surely help.

I wouldn't. Most baby pics, especially the ones I find at shops, for me, are extremely tacky, over-photoshopped... and why would I want to see someone else's baby? I only want to see mine when it's born... I mean, I've never been oh-so lovey-dovey on babies. If I wanted nicer things that could remind me of the baby, I would start buying stuffed animals for her or little baby clothes and keep in our room until he or she's born. And of course, start furnishing the baby's room :). Or better, I would start a scrapbook for her, or a series of scrapbooks of her life, the first one being about how we waited for her.

Most people do it here :) We also did the same. I am in my second trimester and we hanged a huge poster in our bedroom just in front of bed so that i can see it everytime :), In this picture a very cute, healthy baby laying in a fruit basket wearing a nappy only. We also hanged a pic of 'bal krishna" (baby God krishna of hindus) I hope our baby will be cute and healthy like the baby in poster and naughty as bal krishna was..

Hi youless, i have heard of this from my colleague too. Seems like this is mainly the Chinese tradition. When my colleague was pregnant, she puts cute baby pictures as her desktop wallpapers and mobile phone. Besides, she would always search for more cute baby pictures to see all the time. For me, i like to see cute baby photos and pictures too. So, it is not something i would do only during pregnancy. I suppose, pregnant women loves to see something cute and adorable is normal, maybe just a psychological effect to make them feel better. I heard that being pregnant has a lot of stress and worries. Well, if seeing cute baby photos would help comfort you and make you feel better, why not?

After your baby was born did you take all kinds of pictures of him.

hehehe nothing to share about this for am single, no child and never been married,

I think it is not a custom here it's been scientifically proven that a baby in a mother's womb can copy or can have a similar what ever mother always want to see. But when I was pregnant I just don't make fond of looking into horrible and unusual image. My daughters have a cute two dimples on her cheeks that she got when I was making fond of my co-employer cheeks when I'm conceiving her. And we're surprised that she got it we don't have that kind of traits in our family.

I heard of this too. During my pregnancy, I did not buy any cute baby photos. However, my mum advised me not to look at ugly and scary things. Many television drama always show how a pregnant lady room full of adorable baby photos on the wall.Yes, your baby is cute ...

I did not do the same. I never did anything out of the ordinary. I was just dealing with it like any other day. I wasn't told of any custom regarding pregnancy.

When I was pregnant I quite used to hide. I was somehow ashamed of my body changing. Really silly, if I think of it now. It is just a normal situation of which we should be proud and happy. After many years I understood that. So it never came to my mind of having baby photos.
