Tweeting During Labor

will posted 08/28/08 @ 2:06AM EST

I was getting ready to go to bed when I saw a tweet from @syam saying: Wow! @ginnycase is tweeting her child's birth live!

He wasn't joking... Earlier, this week, Jeff wrote a post about true lifestreaming. I would say this qualifies. One could argue that this might be taking a bit extreme in fact. That was my initial thought, until I remembered that people have their husbands videotape them in labor and giving birth.

I don't care what people say, there is nothing beautiful about giving birth, so I discovered in health class. So if you want to document your process of creating a life, do it via Twitter, not via camcorder. Using TwitPic as a loophole to get around my request is also frowned upon.

Don't ask me to explain why I am now following @ginnycase, curiosity has gotten the best of me.

Godspeed.
