Is there a huge bidding war over pix of Bristol Palin's baby?

People magazine's J.D. Heyman tells "Extra" the couple deserves their privacy. "This is a couple and family that are focused on getting used to their new family together... and I think that's where the focus ought to be."

"Extra" wants to know what you think of the name "Tripp." Click here to vote!
