I gave my gma a framed pic of me pregnant for mother's day...
One of my favorite bare belly shots.
she flipped out - you would have thought I gaver her a picture of my va jay jay...
I know she is 83 years old, but I thought for sure she would love it

I think it was a lovely gift but sometimes the older generation just doesn't *get* us. My dad thinks that soap operas are porn

Re: I gave my gma a framed pic of me pregnant for mother's day...
It's just a generational thing.
My 71 year old aunt lectured me about wearing tight belly shirts when I was pregnant You would think after her not being able to get pregnant (she adopted three children) and me doing IVF that she would have ENCOURAGED me to only wear tight belly shirts while pg. Needless to say, I went right out and bought some and guess what I was wearing Thankgiving day?
Oh, and I'm sure some of my relatives almost collapsed when my friend used a close up bare belly shot as the background for my shower invite
It's just that grandma is old-school.

I agree - they just don't get it. I'm sorry she doesn't see the beauty in that belly. I know we all do - dancing bears included.

actually me and dh did the same thing as you and made smile faces on my belly the week before she was born. Many people thought why. Guess what...me and dh think its so funny and at least we can laugh at it later on with dd. I am actually totally thrilled we did it 1 week before she was born. Its so generational. As long as you love it thats all that counts.

It stinks that she reacted that way. But everyone is right, it's a generational thing. They used to wear oversized tee-shirts and moo-moos when they were pregnant. My mom thought it was disgusting that I wore bikinis while I was pregnant.
