20 Week Scan

Went for the 20 week scan today; everything is fine - heart, lungs, kidneys, liver, spine etc all developing nicely and it's a boy Hurrah!

Anyway; this is Bertie Bump:

Image

Head on the left in profile and you can clearly make out his spine, ribs and one of his arms is up in front of his face.

Just sitting there watching his heart beating was a gobsmacking moment!

As an aside, as we were coming out of the Clarendon Wing of the LGI there was someone looking suspiciously like a new dad wearing a 'new logo' Sisters tshirt.

Anyone here?

Our little girl, Alice aka The Valkyrie Maiden Toddler, first put in an appearance there too. St James' is actually closer to where we live but the LGI has a better reputation and also has pools etc.

Plus, depending on what time you manage to stagger out, Josephs Well is a much better pub for head wetting than the Florence Nightingale :eek:

If you look at the picture side-ways, it looks like the baby is smoking a cigarette. :innocent:

Lull him to sleep with The Cure's own Lullaby, followed by a nice gentle burst of Flood I and Wide Receiver, and you'll have a perfect kid. :innocent:

Well said Dark; I want to see headphones on Ms. Mik's stomach ASAP. Let's get this kid educated.

Your little girl is called Alice? Excellent.

Emma Jolene! Astounding; anyone else want to add to the list of Sisters-related offspring?

I intend for a daughter to be called Isabelle.

If I had a son, I'd name him Mark, and if I had a daughter, I'd name her Anne Marie.

I really do listen to the Sisters and Ghosties too much, non?
