I'm not having a Monster Baby!

I had my 32 week sonogram yesterday. Everything looks great, Lily is still a girl, and my placenta is where it should be. The guesstimate at birth weight right now is around 7 lbs. 6 oz. I'm just relieved that I'm unlikely to have a 12lb. baby. I guess we knew that, though.

She did *not* like the sonogram and all the poking and prodding. Well, they had to tip me backwards in the chair to see her head clearly, as she's got her head buried pretty far down. So, due to the blood and oxygen restrictions from that position, I just about passed out and had to be rolled onto my side to recover. Not nice. And Lily spent the rest of the day cowering in my pelvis, making walking uncomfortable and squishing my bladder flat as a pancake. I can't say I blame her.

That's about all the news. Here's a picture of her face. Just like the Shroud of Turin, but for real!

ah, that's the face... when I saw it before, somehow I thought it was a profile... and that made no sense.

looks like an Arnold nose.

wow, real baby!

Adam's line has very distinguished noses as well (I know Adam is going to take that the wrong way and I'll have to explain it later...)
