Week 13

Alison and I saw our babies again today at another ultrasound. As you can see below both babies are developing quite nicely. Baby Leigh's (remember these identifications are in place of Baby A and B, the sex of the children is unknown as are any potential names - see previous post for explanation) spinal cord is highly visible due to her faceing away and down (she is the lowest and closest to the cervix). From head to rump she measured in at about 8cm or about 3.14 inches (see picture of my pocket knife for some comparison!). Baby Eugene was also about 8cm/3.14 inches. Both of their hearts were doing well! Baby Eugene was being very photogenic and in his first picture you can see his nose and mouth very clearly. The bridging of his nose was looking very developed and healthy! Also in Baby Leigh's Pictures you can see the seperating wall - thus Baby Leigh for now is lower and closer to getting out and they are both facing head down for now. Yeah, Baby Leigh is lined up to kick at Baby Eugene, so I guess he better behave in there!
