Fun new game: Cute or Creepy?

We'll see if this catches on before I commit to it as a regular thing, but I'm interested in your feedback. I'll tell you about a thing, and you'll tell me whether it's cute or creepy. (Or other, obviously.) Once I get a few responses, I'll chime in in the comments.

I have a Facebook friend who is pregnant and understandably very excited.

She's found a FB app that will keep us all updated on how the fetus is doing.

Like:
[Friend] is 28 weeks along in her pregnancy
[Friend]'s baby is about 14 inches long and weighs 2 pounds.
and
[Friend] is 28 weeks along in her pregnancy
[Friend]'s baby's skeleton is hardening and requires about 200 milligrams of calcium every day.
and
[Friend] is 28 weeks along in her pregnancy
[Friend]'s baby's skull bones are growing rapidly to accommodate its growing brain.
and
[Friend] is 27 weeks along in her pregnancy
[Friend]'s baby will suck on anything that can reach his or her mouth: hands, umbilical cord, toes or knees. Sucking provides vital neural connections in baby's brain.
So...
What do you think?

OK, it's probably time for me to weigh in.

I had not yet come up with the words for it, but I think Mike has hit the nail on the head. I wondered if there'd be a divide between those who have children and those who do not, but that doesn't seem to be the case.
