One of the main reasons parents post gross pictures on Facebook is because technology makes it really easy. For example, you don’t HAVE to take a picture of your baby’s bloody umbilical cord after he’s born, but since you CAN, why wouldn’t you? And you don’t HAVE to share it on Facebook, but it only takes two seconds, and honestly, who doesn’t love a good high-res picture of a bloody umbilical cord?
Haters, step to the left. D.’s got something to share, and yes, it is beautiful.
Isn’t it nice knowing that someday, seemingly out of nowhere, a friend you thought you knew relatively well could show up in your newsfeed with an item like this? One minute all of that person’s pictures are of sunsets and craft beers, and the next, they’re of a shiny, grey, clamped umbilical cord that’s surrounded by a small puddle of blood. Life is miraculous like that.
