Would You Tweet During Labor?

I apparently had my baby in the dark ages – thankfully not before drugs were invented. But these days it’s hip to tweet your baby announcement. Check out the latest addition to the Albertyn family, if you didn’t already catch it on Twitter. (Granted, she was somewhat of a celebrity as the author of a book titled So Close detailing her battle with infertility.)

Way cool, but I have to wonder what kind of tweets I would have sent out considering I managed to make quite an ass of myself to both the anesthesiologist and my OB. Then again, I was in labor for 30 hours…. Well, too late to wonder about it now.

Would you tweet about your labor?

(You can also follow me on Twitter, but I’m not planning to birth a baby anytime soon … just fyi.)
