Family Previews Baby on Internet

WHITEHOUSE (AP) – An expectant East Texas couple thought creating a Facebook page for their unborn child would be a fun and convenient way to announce their coming addition to their family to their friends. Ellie Greene says she thought it would be the most efficient way to keep her family back in Scotland updated on her pregnancy. But as will happen with Internet creations, Matt and Ellie Greene’s page took off and became a viral hit, with 800 people asking to be her Facebook friend. Then, Facebook shut the page down, since it had been created in the name of someone who had not yet moved from the realm of the fictitious to the factual. The Greenes created a new group page for updates.
