It's a boy















We received confirmation of Tammy's belief that baby is indeed a boy today. Lots of measurements were taken during the test, and all appears good, with a healthy size and aprox 140 bbm heartbeat. We didn't get the 3D imaging or video done as we'd hoped, because we have to return for another ultrasound later to check some of the bits that he didn't let us see today. In the first image you can see baby's head clearly as the round portion to the right, and the body (and some arm possibly) to the left.



In the second image you can see the spine. During the exam we saw the bladder, kidneys, ribs, arms/legs (particularly the femur), and of course, the incriminating dangling bits in the groin region. He was very active again this time, lots of flailing and moving about... but he would not turn over to show the heart properly -- they need to check that the heart and all 4 chambers are visible. So we'll go back in a few weeks and try that part again, and hopefully we can get the video done. Posted by Picasa
