ADVICE?!?! Sooo my 3yo has been so happy about this pregnancy! She talks to the baby every day, loves the ultrasound pics, everything I eat had to "make baby happy", and since babyW will be here in December she loves explaining Christmas and Santa to my belly. It's adorable! But one day she saw me watching a video of a c-section someone put on fb. She asked me what the baby was doing and I told her that's how some babies come out of mommys tummy and she loved it! She wanted to watch it over and over and asked to see more, so I looked up some on YouTube. She absolutely loves seeing the babies enter the world and see how happy the mommies and daddy's are. I told my MIL because I have always loved the medical world and was even studying to be a nurse when I got pregnant..and she flipped! She said she was WAY to young to be exposed to things like that and it's totally inappropriate for her age. I had no idea what was wrong? She asked, so I showed her. It's not like I showed her how babies are MADE just how they enter the world. It's a beautiful moment! My daughter wants to be apart of every moment in my pregnancy and I think that's amazing for her age! I'm getting much more negative feedback from my family than I expected..what do you other moms think?? Was I wrong in letting her watch videos of birth?

I think it's awesome she was so into it! I don't see it as a big deal.
If she was freaked out and you forced her to watch I would understand your mil being upset, but if she loved it then that's wonderful! 😊

@firsttimemama98, see that's what I said! It didn't scare her at all and I was so amazed! I remember my mom doing the same thing for me when I was young and it s the reason why I wanted to work in the medical field. I hope she inherited that trait too ☺️

She's not traumatized, she's in awe. Absolutely nothing wrong with that. She's got a beautiful mind already to be so young 💜

@momma_dee, yea she's always been that way...she definitely has HER way to raise kids that's very different from mine. If my kid asks a question I'm going to answer honestly. She would rather I raise my kids super sheltered and I think that's absolutely ridiculous! She has her way and I have mine and I get nothing but compliments on how well mannered and well spoken my kids are so I must be doing something right?
