My ex and I send pictures to eachother of our kid even when we are in a period of not being able to stand eachother. We both love our young daughter, and no matter what kind of feelings we have for one another, we both know we made that child and will always have that small piece in common. And may it be the only thing that ties us, it's huge in theory.
It is natural to want to share snippets of your childs life. You will always be bonded by that. And there is nothing wrong with doing it. No reason to resist that.
