Supervisor just had a baby and the manager emailed us photos

My supervisor JUST had her baby and sent our manager photos of the baby who in turn shared them with the team. But the photos showed the baby still had a little bit of placenta/blood on it and it was in an incubator and wrapped in some kind of protective plastic. I mean I get that babies being born are, for the most part, a joyous occasion and I’m not trying to diminish that but these photos were jarring and a bit shocking for me. Usually, people send baby photos when the baby is clean and swaddled. I don’t think it’s right that I had to see pictures like that at work.
