Instagram banned WA mum’s pregnancy picture

Is this the pregnancy announcement of all pregnancy announcements?

Perth entrepreneur Yasmin Walter doesn’t do things by halves, so when she went public with the news of a pending bub this picture was the captivating result.

“I thought it would be nice to have both the baby in me and my other baby on me,” said Mrs Walter, who was photographed with her four-year-old daughter, Azélia, said.

“So it’s just a nice bonding moment for the three of us.”

But not everyone was impressed, with Instagram deleting the image for breaching its nudity guidelines.

“I air-brushed her nipple off so it wasn’t revealing,” Mrs Walter said. “But still someone reported it and Instagram deleted it. I was so upset.

“If anyone has a problem with it, they obviously have a problem in their own head. Kim Kardashian and other celebrities upload photos of their babies and you can see nipple and everything.”

Mrs Walter is seven months pregnant in the photo and had only told close friends and family she was expecting before uploading the image on social media. The 32-year-old Swan Valley resident said the pose was her daughter’s idea.

“She said, ‘Mummy let’s try with me on your lap’. And the photographer just caught us in that moment, when I was embracing her. And it turned out to be an unexpected favourite photo of everyone.”

Mrs Walter was seven months pregnant with Azélia when she flew to New York in 2014 to negotiate the sale of the website she co-founded, Tagroom.com, for a rumoured multimillion-dollar figure.
