Introducing: Tiny Puckett!

We had our 20-week ultrasound last week and we're happy to report: It's a healthy little boy! The sonographer explained everything we were seeing in great detail, partially because she was training a med student on the system. She gave us 90+ pictures on a disc, so we've only posted the top third on our Fotki site. The best of these are below. Enjoy!


Note the "Puckett forehead."


Arms & legs!


Hands & feet!


Strong 4-chambered heart, good heartrate.


Brain with strong separation between hemispheres.


Measurements to check growth progress. Tiny was 20w 1d as of these pics, with a due date of Nov 10th. He's measuring 5-12 days ahead... in fact, the sonographer measured the femur 3 times because she thought it was too long! But the uncertainties are 10-14 days, so he's really not ahead at all. (430 g = 1 lb, give or take 4 oz.)


Hang in there, Tiny!
